The Locomotion
Moving about in Roryworld is an elaborate, slightly hazardous and backwards process. Not for him the classic baby "roll to get the toy" nor the "shuffle on your tummy" movements: no. Instead his wee ginger bonce offers ideal rearward traction. See illustrations below.
Oh yes indeed. Everybody's doing a brand new dance now (c'mon Rory, do the locomotion...)
Step 1: gather your resources (viz, your thumb, your feet and your ginger cat...)
Step 2: AAARRRCCHH that back. Yogis the world over work for years to achieve this posture but you can do it at age 7.5 months! Impressive. Roll onto the top of your head. Chuckling merrily throughout is optional...
Step 3: Rest and wave at the camera
Step 4: Arch that back again and - whoah! - you're making excellent progress! Very nearly off the end of the bed there.
