    My son,in a busy supermarket, noticed a lady in full burka. In a five year old voice " mummy...look a real life Ninja"

    My daughter asked if steak was good for your kidneys.
    Life is like a bath, the longer you are in it the more wrinkly you become.

    Why is it that the more awkward the answer will be, the louder & more penetratingly innocent the questioner's voice?
    They're ever that audible when asking for another slice of toast please!

    When my niece was about 3 she asked me (loudly, in Tesco) "you're old, so did you live in the black and white days?????" (Im 28 NOW so would've only been 20 at the time!), I was like :eek: IM ONLY 20.

    Meeting my son from school he asked me if I had seen the Titanic !!
    I did reply that even his grandad was not born before it went down but he could not fathom
    what that had do with it ..

    This is why some people seem as bright until you hear them.

    when my DD was five - they used to do a 'show and tell' in school. the subject was 'mothers'.
    my DD stood up and informed everyone that 'mummy goes to the pub every night, and comes home really late and that is why she is late for school sometimes'! I worked there!

    Me, my OH and our two daughters were walking around a London Museum many years ago.

    My then five your-old called out (as kids do when it's something you should whisper)across the display hall..Dad, what's an orgasm? I calmy replied..ask your mother.

    The actual display was talking about organisms

    Still wind her up now (she's 28 and a teacher :rotfl:)

    My mother never forgave me when I was in the Brownies and we were asked how to make toast
    Me. "You put it under the grill until it's black on both sides, then you put it over the sink and scrape off all the black bits with a knife".
    Brown Owl. "Well I don't t think that's quite how you're supposed to do it"
    Me. "Well that's how my mum always makes it!"

    Brown Owl was a friend of my mother's and apparently enjoyed teasing her about this one.

    My friend and her 7 year old daughter came round the other day and we all went out - I kissed my OH goodbye and told him I loved him.


    My friend's little girl said 'mummy, why don't you ever do that with daddy'.


    Aww, was quite sad actually! She was motified lol (I know they've not had any intimacy for a decade or so which prob makes it even worse (donor babies, before anyone queries that ;)).


    Kids!

    DD was taken to a football match with granny and grandad when she was around 4. The local team was on the receiving end of some rough treatment and the crowd was getting agitated by the lack of sympathy displayed by the referee.
    Cue the chanting -- "the referee`s a w*nker, the referee`s a w*nker"
    DD asked "Granny, what are they singing?"
    "oh, they`re saying the referee is a banker"
    DD replied "my daddy is one of them!"
