i called my mom. i tried to talk to dad too but mom said he stopped off at the pub for a sneaky pint so he wasn't home yet. i'm fine. i'm busy having fun. today jammma and grdad took me for a car ride. we walked around a giant tescos and then went to play in a park. the park was awesome. there was a slide and the biggest sand pit i've ever seen. there was also a water spout. i was in charge of the water. you spray the water on the sand and then you can make sandcastles. mom's only news is that she bought an ice cream maker. oh really? i like ice cream.
