Janel spent this weekend with her grandparents (Tata and Gogo) while N&G went to town to see "Spamalot" and spend the night in a friend's flat. While we were away, Janel had her first brush with the long arm of the law (almost) - Tata takes up the story:
"We had gone for a walk on the common, and had taken a side journey into Tesco's to indulge my whim for a choclatey Aero, as is my wont. I purchased the chocolate, and the checkout lady was cooing over Janel who was cooing back all innocently, with no indication of the scandal that was to come. We were heading for the door and the security check when I noticed that Janel had a bag of Maltesers in her lap and was attempting to break and/or enter them. With the security guard hovering suspiciously, we returned to the scene of the crime to find the Maltesers at an easy-grab buggy's height. I have spread the word at the church, asking Janel's godparents and other significant members of the congregation to pray for Janel and her home situation, as this is clearly learned rather than inate behaviour, and one shudders to think what evil deeds have already been perpetrated!!"
So there you go - an accomplished criminal mastermind already. ;-)
