For those with one or more small children ... this time will pass Grasshoppers! I had three under fives at one point... they are now 22, 20 and almost 18 and at last I can celebrate New Years Eve going out with friends for a few glasses of bubbly without spending a fortune on babysitters (which in the 'good ol' days, post-Christmas we never had the money for)! Now it's my children ringing me to make sure I am safe and not too drunk!
Generali... you've completely ruined my fantasy of you by telling the ages of your children... I'd assumed (from your name) you were a kindly old buffer... batchelor of the parish, probably in your late 50s early 60s, ex commisioned officer gone into high city finance! I pictured you with a handle-bar moustache wearing plus fours and tweeds! With children that age it's more likely to be 4 day old stubble, vomit stained shirts and child-proof jeans!!!!
Doozergirl I hope you get better soon... take care of yourself... difficult I know with wee ones around demanding attention but good luck and get plenty of rest whenever you can!“A journey is best measured in friends, not in miles.”

I'm actually named after an alarm clock (long story).
I tend to avoid the vomit stained look - I'm generally pretty well kempt (as I hope those that have met me will attest to). The plus fours and tweeds will have to wait until the hedge fund pays off (if it does) when I plan to spend my time walking around with a shotgun, shouting at the spaniels. Not sure what they'll make of that in the Barbican.
Not sure what Mrs Generali would think of other people having fantasies about me!0 -
