Little glow of admiration for my eldest.

Tomorrow is the day for submitting entries at his school for the Eisteddfod to be held on St David's Day. They were given a booklet of different catagories of competitions they could enter and, for once, he was seized with inspiration and determination to do his best. He wanted to do five catagories, but has only had time to do three - but those three he's really had a good go at. He's playing the drums with his friend to enter the music contest. He's collected the numbers 1-10 in as many languages as he possibly can and has managed to collect over 100 (not including the floppy disk he's included which contains the 5020 languages off a website specifically listing numbers in different langauges which seemed a bit too much like cheating to be included, but couldn't be neglected in case others had included it!!!). And today we've done the baking catagory.

Two cakes from Austria (as that was the criteria - cakes from another country!); A sachertorte and a Linzertorte which look absolutely delicious. Absolutely delicious. What a shame they won't keep until after Lent!
