    My girlfriend hates it when I go shopping with her because I can't resist the kitchen timers. :rotfl:

    It has to be done, the more the better. I always set one at five minutes then one a minute for as many timers as I can get my hands on.

    I used to say nothing and then they'd start going off and I'd get the 'look'. Now I go and find her and tell her "you've got four and a half minutes until the timers start :)"

    On the upside I never have to go to Ikea anymore.

    They have pallets full of the things and I have to start at ten minutes to give myself time to do loads before they start going off! Last time I was there with her I was gone ages and she came to find me, by then I'd set over 40 of them :T

    :rotfl: :rotfl:


    I think you can get therapy for that, Mr. Toad. :rotfl:

    Oh it doesn't end there.

    Toys, action figures and furry animals in particular are great. Nothing like putting them in compromising positions having a bit of rumpy pumpy :)

    Then there's the Lego minifigs. I once removed the heads and or arms and legs from several and left them scattered about the feet of Samurai figure like this one

    Someone once said that getting old was compulsory but growing up was optional.
    One by one the penguins are slowly stealing my sanity.

    I did that in magaluf a long time ago but with those parrots that repeat back everything they hear. Must have had about 20 or so going all at once and when the first one hears something it says it back and that causes a chain reaction to the rest as the first one goes of again.....until they get turned off or the batteries die.


    BANNED FROM SHOP lol

    NAUGHTY! :naughty:

    :D

    No grandchildren won't stop me doing all these things, but I think its much more fun when you share experiences with...err, other like minded people:)

    I have a new grandchild now, :D I can't wait to show her all the lovely things like safari parks and zoos etc, when she is a bit older. :)
    You didn't, did you? :rotfl::rotfl:

    Who cares when you're a grown up.
    As long as you are happy with your life at any given time that's the main thing.

    I like introducing children to unsuitable music, horror films and challenging books. I am very popular! I think every child should have an adult in their life to lead them astray! The worst trouble I got into was for showing a crafty young lad how to cross stitch. His dad was furious.
