Charlie

After our hasty exit from the Shanghai Stadium, I had wondered what the driver had made of it. After all, it was probably a once in a lifetime opportunity for him, and he'd had to leave after less than hour, all because of J's lost teddy. And then suffer her hysterics for a further 30 minutes in the car on the way home. But when he arrived this morning, he had brought a present for J with him - a lovely new (and very large) teddy. Even J, who has received more teddies as presents in her lifetime than I could count, was touched by this extremely thoughtful gesture. She has named the teddy Charlie, in honour of our very kind driver.
