Ah, the practicalities.....

As an addendum to yesterday's post, my grandson (see post dated 3rd January) has turned out to be one of the 20% who have not got a place at their first-choice school (just what have they got against our family? - this isn't the first time this has happened!). Quite apart from his obvious disappointment, and the fact that this means he will be losing touch with most of his mates, it also means that I, as driver of the school-run car, will now be faced with the problem of getting three grandchildren to three different schools in three different directions - thanks a bunch, folks!
