    It was "Little Bear" I used to miss and that schools programme that had "Pippin" in it. (Come Outside)

    Yes I am looking forward to that break Emmap. Usually have at least 2 weeks in the sun with the kids but they don't want to go with us now so we are going for short breaks at the moment.

    Have managed quite a few hourly entries but not sure what the outcome would be of the holiday one when we have no kids the right age. Would rather win the Nexus anyway :D

    Had to go and pick DD up from work as they didn't let her out in time to catch the last bus at 5.10pm. She only missed it by a couple of mins. She will have to insist on leaving earlier if we aren't at home. It is only 2 and a half miles away by car but still annoying as she was trying to be independent. She couldn't eat dinner as she had been picking all afternoon.

    My friend Billy had a ten foot willy
    And he showed it to the girl next door
    She thought it was a snake
    So she cut it with a rake
    And now it's only five foot four

    Mary had a little lamb
    She tied it to a pylon
    Ten thousand volts went up its ar*e
    And turned its wool to nylon !
