    Hello to all the lovely people of the Elite :hello:

    I hope you don't mind the interruption to your chats :o

    I've briefly absconded from the Arms just to say "hi" and have been mightily amused by the Tyrells pics :rotfl::rotfl: so thanks for that! :beer: :rotfl: :D

    I know exactly what you mean. Both of mine have DVD TVs in their rooms - they even have one each for the car, which I can understand for long journeys and their mum needing to concentrate on the motorway etc., but I remember driving the length of the M6 on my own with DD aged 9, she was reading Secret Seven books the whole way. But in fairness she had no-one to argue with!

    I have explained to DGD about bright light at bedtime keeping her brain awake when the rest of her wants to sleep, and that it is not a happy combination, and she understands that and almost never asks for a DVD. But with DGS I don't even think about his TV, it's storytime.


    My DS (8) has enough trouble going to sleep without a tv in his room!! He can't have sugar after 3.30 and he stops on tablet at 7, goes to bed at 8 and still awake for at least another 1 hr.
    I have dyslexia, so get used to my spelling and grammar :)
