Delayed World Book Day 2018

This year the planned day for all the kids to celebrate World Book Day at school was postponed due to the Beast from the East and the subsequent school closures that it caused. So Joshua and Brandon had their rescheduled World Book Day last week instead which caused us a bit of a problem as all the costumes had gone from the shops and for once we were completely unprepared.

So Brandon took the really easy option and wore a black outfit and used one of my football whistles and the red/yellow card - so he was dressed up as the referee from the Frank Lampard football books (and the little so and so lost my football coaching whistle that I trusted him with!). Joshua dressed up as the character Dirty Bertie from the Dirty Bertie books. This basically meant a pair of scruffy jeans and a green and white striped shirt. Unfortunately we didn't have a green and white striped shirt so Tina painted green stripes on to a white t-shirt the night before!

The boys both got a book voucher from the school as part of World Book Day and they used these at WHSmiths. Joshua got himself "Midnight Gang" by David Walliams and Brandon got "Diary of a Wimpy Kid".
