[SSC] children at tomorrow's meeting?

Are there any other children coming tomorrow?  If there are, please  
tell me and I'll bring Lenny and Remy join join the fun; if not, I  
feel I should send my apologies for tomorrow and do something nice  
with them, as they are only with me on alternate weekends...

Regarding feedback from last week's meeting, Sarah, I'm reading the  
Sociological Imagination with interest, but am not sure where to start  
with writing, and would welcome a title, please.

Thanks -
Laurax
