I took some photo's of a friends of Rowan's parents who run an Italian Restraunt in York. Rather than take payment we agreed on a price of a meal on the house. So Saturday we went up to Luigi's for an early evening meal. It was great, and tasted all the better for being free. Rowan was keen to give to Clara her Blue Peter Badge which had been sent c/o Rowan. Rowan meanwhile has now got her Silver Blue Peter Badge

which provoked further bouts of joy.
