  • Morning all

    Yawn, David slept from 8-5 with 1 feed in the middle but then decided that 5am was when he wanted to get up and nothing would change his mind :eek:

    BBC are saying that this has been the coldest winter for 30 years, it is freezing here again today and yet more snow forecast later. I can't wait until we go on holiday for a bit of sunshine :j

    Morning all ........ can I tell you a secret?

    (if you're my stalking husband stop reading cause it's a secret)

    I just booked his anniversary/our birthday present! He's getting sphereing (voucher - paper!), and we're going to a lovely hotel over his birthday weekend so he can do it and so we can have a lovely joint birthday dinner and I can have a lovely spa thing. But we have three days so we'll do something relaxing on the Saturday, he can roll down a hill on the Sunday and then there's dinner in the evening, and we can do something touristy on the Monday before visiting a supermarket on the Tuesday and filling our suitcase ready for coming home :rotfl:

    Ooohh, I can!! And it was super MSE - I searched all the options and buyagift.com was cheapest, WITH 12% Quidco and a £5 voucher WYS £25 or more. So instead of being £31 it was £26 with £3 cashback.

    In other news, I've just seen this. There's a movement to redesign hotdogs to prevent kids choking on them. I think people would do better to encourage their kids to chew. Should we also consider redesigning chickens and fish so nobody chokes on the bones?

    SS, that article is a perfect example of why I don't wanna move back to the US! :eek:

    a) maybe their kids shouldn't be eating hot dogs in the first place (though I love them, so really can't talk) as they're not the healthiest thing on the planet.

    b) I'm reminded of a comment a friend of mine from uni made. She's Chinese and we were in a Chinese supermarket, shopping - she said the reason they always put knives on the bottom shelves of Chinese supermarkets was to weed out the stupid kids :D :rotfl:.

    Thats just a nanny state gone mad if you ask me how stupid. As you say teach your kids to chew properly and not eat like pigs by taking massive mouthfulls. Mind you its suprising how many peole dont teach their kids to eat properly. I was talking to a dinner lady the once and she told me the majority of kids now when they start school/Nursery have no idea how to use a knife and fork properly.
