Talk Torque-Torc

Good morning Bearable (and others) - delighted that your daughter is making rapid progress. The greatest growth is always experienced in the first year of life, so you can expect a little slowdown. It seems so long ago when my children were that age that I had rather forgotton about that. My two sons are at the point where we go through 4 ltrs milk, 2 loaves bread and packet of cereal every day - but the elder one is almost 13 and the younger is 11.

Not looking forward to them from 14 to 19 years..... meanwhile I have still the edge over them in karate, but for how much longer I don't know. the elder one will be eligible to grade to his black belt in a few months time and the younger at the beginning of 2008. I can see myself being mugged for a tenner every Friday night before long.
