School Fete
Today was Eris's school fete. It was pretty good, and well-attended. The rain stopped about ten minutes before the official opening time, and the sun was soon cooking everyone quite nicely.
I was intending to make some nifty biscuits for the cake stall, but the necessary modifications to the recipe for a modern environment (NUTS! AAAAAAAH! RUN!) left me with a mix that was probably a little heavier on the moisture than desirable. I was well on the way towards dialing in the right oven temperature and so forth, but just ran out of time.
If anyone needs irregular fruitcake biscuits, please see me. I have many, and more dough.
Getting Eris away from the rides was fun ...

The Caterpillar
Wander through a caterpillar, and exit through a giant bum!
Cha Cha
Eris rode this four times, queuing for about fifteen minutes in the sun for each shot. Every time she got off, the words "Again! Again!" came from her mouth instantly.
In these few seconds of video, you can see Eris wave to the camera just near the end.
After staggering home, I passed out on the bed for an hour. When I came out of my room, I found this in the hallway:
That's not an attempt at an "anonymity blur", by the way, she just happened to stir slightly as I took the photo.
