He’s still got no teeth like. He’s become partial to pulling a series of faces in homage to the late Les Dawson for which it is quite useful to have no teeth. I think he’s just decided to sack off growing them now.

He is a very politically aware 9 month old. He thinks its pretty ridiculous that an over-subscribed, brand new, purpose built centre (which is even newer than he is!) should be under the threat of closure.
I mean, he didn’t actually have to say this, but I can tell he’s outraged by the fact that if we take out the money allocated to Liverpool’s schools, Government Ministers have decided to cut the money for children and families by 35 per cent.

In those first few months it is nice to know that ‘you’re not the only one’.
