Risky business..

.. I went on a school trip with the P7's today at the Risk Factory in Edinburgh.
It involves the children being put into difficult or dangerous scenarios and finding out how they will react to them.
In one case the kids are in a house and the curtains catch fire from a nearby candle, they have to leave the building, taking granny with them and call the Fire Service. Of course the nearby payphone isn't working, they have to go further down the street, then they realise someone is in the house next door. Do they try to rescue the person or not? Of course they should get out and stay out.
In the course of the morning we had 3 kids go back into a burning building, one stabbed by a burglar, one kidnapped, three run over by trains, two knocked unconscious by flying bricks, one stood on a jelly fish and most of them fell in the river and had to be rescued. I don't think anyone got electrocuted though. It was a very good morning!
In the afternoon I sat in the sun in the garden and crocheted some bunting while reading the latest LK! There's some gorgeous stuff to make, how on earth will I get it all done??
