By 'chariot' Angela means 'hard, sharp manuka logs, tied together and with a child clinging to the top of them while 4-5 others run full tilt around a small hall with concrete walls'. There were way more than two injuries. My team required band-aids when they put their bodies on the line to finish well - they ran into and over the girl at the front who was carrying half the weight of the 'chariot' and not keeping up with the others at the back. And in another race, one boy smacked into the chair that was the finish line with his head. Shook himself and kept going though.
Tonight is also way busier than Angela realises. Choir for Toby, Tennis for Toby, Karate for Toby. But also dinner with his friend Jack, a Pocket Legends game-playing event with another friend Alex, and babysitting with Benjamin while we go to the movies. Black Swan at the Embassy. Reckon we'll grab a quick bite to eat in town first, too. Bring it on!!
