Mrs Osem & Osem Jnr are on their way home after 12 days seeing family and friends in E. Europe. Their flight's due in about 10pm and I can't wait to get to the airport, pick them up and get the safely back home. Should be home before midnight if all goes well.

Having said that, it's been great being alone with my 'special' lad - so much simpler with only 2 variables in the family equation. Although he's been hard work at times it's been really nice spending so much time with him and learning even more about what makes him tick. We've been out and about, shared a few BBQs in the back garden and I've enjoyed indulging him with some of his favourite meals. Jeez I can't believe how much that lad can eat but I've always thought a good appetite is a sign of good health and on that basis he's a fit as a butcher's dog and without an ounce of spare flesh!

One of my workmates has known him for ages, as her mum is one of his carers. He went to a BBQ at her house last month, and expressed an interest in seeing where she worked (she joined us at the start of the year).

So, today he came along with my workmate's mum and another carer. He had a tour of the offices and lab, the MD gave a presentation on what we do, and he then asked some questions of the MD and let us take a couple of photos.
One of science's true greats! Bet you'll never forget that.
