Full Operational Status Restored

Recovery pretty much complete, apart from the odd affected fake cough when health is mentioned, Eloise is back at nursery - and loving it - back at music, swimming etc, just in time for the school holidays.

Just a week off this time, but as Mum is coming to visit, it'll be a bit of a break from the old routine as we key up for a little road trip up to Carnarvon Gorge whilst Nicole hangs around here and looks after the dog and payrolls us.

The general plan is to go up to Bunya Mountains for a couple of days then up to Carnarvon, again for a couple of days, and then across to Noosa or Fraser or somewhere. Haven't decided yet.

Should be interesting.

Meanwhile after her recovery I'm sure that Eloise is getting heavier and we have observed that her talking is improving once more, with conjugation coming along quite well and, dare I say it, lying for profit (generally sweeties) which is of course an essential skill.
