Party Time

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Birthday parties are an all important part of what Mum and Dad face as part of the challenge to bring up an enlightened and well balanced family and I thought I would turn the internet for a bit of inspiration. I soon got lost and it was not long before puppets and ventriloquists in South Africa took me to site featuring Conrad Koch. Another act that caught my eye was the magician and illusionist Vicus who performs his unique brand of radical magic in South Africa as well as on cruise ships, the States, Europe, Scandanavia, SE Asia and the Far East.

But still no closer to a two year olds birthday party.

That flu eventually hit us all and required three or four courses on antibiotics to put it down. Fortunately we had a brief respite over the holidays. But that was short lived as David once again, picked up the tummy bug that was doing the rounds during holiday care. And we are now trying to shake off the flu that’s not quite flu and which we pass from one to other without it actually developing into anything we can nail down.
