Channelling Spooner

Okay, so why did no-one point out the obvious mistake in the title of the post I made last month (and which has been visible on the front page here all that time)?

Original:

Doing gown

Corrected:

Going down

Any suggestions for what “doing gown” actually means? It certainly sounds like a euphemism…

1022

Fiona is 1022 days old today. This is significant because Alex was 1022 days old when Fiona was born, which means that he is exactly twice as old as his little sister today.

Alex and Fiona together

Fiona’s eyes are red and her face looks puffy because she has a terrible cold right now. Alex looks silly because…well, he is.
