Ds1 has a friend over from school - both 6 - it is utter mayhem upstairs and they are getting sillier by the minute. Number of toys broken so far: 2. Number of times I've had to ask them to calm down: at least 10. I think that ice cream on the way home from school may have been a bad idea. Is it nearly time for him to go home?

If you open a bottle -could I have a glass please?

Cheers

(I've also had 'one of those days')

Is he staying for tea?

Do you know the mum well? Because if not, and things are as bad as they sound, you won't be able to stop at one bottle glass and being totally sloshed when she rocks up to collect her offspring might not go down too well....
invite her over to share the bottle and you can open it anytime

Well I can get sloshed on one large glass so I'd better not crack. Things have calmed down a little bit after I had a couple of stern words to DS1 although we've still got 70 minutes to go. He's staying for tea so that'll at least be some time where they'll shut up
