Frre Kids Swim with MacDonalds Happy Meal

Just found the following:


Free Kid's Swim There is a free kid's swim voucher (with a full-paying adult) on every Happy Meal box. Visit www.mcdonaldsfreeswim.co.uk to find you're nearest participating pool


And yes, we all know this is rubbish food before anyone else points this out, but its Summer Holidays, and just occassionally we have to visit these places!

    Ha Ha, I posted this same message last summer and although it was mentioned in Martins weekly email it got slated by everyone moaning about the food!

    Ha ha! I was expecting a similar mountain of abuse!! But really WE KNOW what rubbish food this is. Frankly, one or two visits in six weeks of school holidays really isnt the end of the world!

    But the "restaurant" is trying it's best to destroy the world!

    Anyway, wouldn't the kids need about 8 free swims to burn off the fat a rubbish ingested?

    Our family of 10 love McD's and we all eat them daily. We love to finish off a meal with delicious and nutricious Dunkin Donuts - some have real fruit inside!

    Only problem is that our local DD's has only a Pizza Hut in the same vicinity. So we go there only twice a week and McD's the other 5 days. Eating out daily keeps washing up to a minimum which is great as none of can stand up to long to do a big sink full.

    I just wish these companies would buy out retails parks so you could have all the take away food in one place - damn inconsiderate lot!

    We prefer Krispy Kremes-alos full of lots of saturated fats-our blubber keeps us warm in winter.
