Recipe of the week

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

I often forget what mine look like, so a photo is essential to remind me that I do actually have children.

Dh has often had to tell me off for trying to hand in my own kids at the missing children place! Silly me!

you may have seen an earlier post of mine - lost daughter temporarily whilst out, frantic, panic and shock - sounds dramatic but i honestlly couldnt think straight, barely speak to describe her - i showed the security a photo and it was then one of them said - I am pretty sure thats her over here. RELIEF I will never forget this incident.

I agree brilliant idea...I see now the poster who gave the tip has 4 kids so even more so a brilliant idea.
I think this is a good idea when on a big day out, Alton Towers etc.. Esp if you have a few kids and/or some aren't yours.

I can never remember what they have on.

Me or Dh always have our phones on us, so it would be really easy to just take a quick photo.

That feeling in the pit of your stomach when one of the DCs have wandered off..sad

it is a clever idea if a leetle paranoid

but I would never be organised enough to do this

I'm lucky if my phone is charged and with me.

are you this organised?

If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
