I hear you, you hate carrots, they're yucky yucky yucky andyou never want to have them.

That cheesey mash I make that you love so much? It aint that colour cos of cheese. IIt's that colour because it's 50% carrot.

You always ask for seconds,

While I have your attention, that crazy frog toy didn't break. I took out the batteries before I went stark raving mad.

Well, I have no idea who Lady MH is but she makes undergoing surgery with no anaesthetic sound a pleasant alternative to spending time in her company.

cathpip · 28/07/2013 17:47

Oh and the occasional rabbit that George catches on his walks, they are not very tired........sorry!

FromageFrog · 28/07/2013 17:47

Ah, do you remember the days when Lady would start a thread and so many would drop to their knees to worship every word.

Now the same behaviour gets her called a troll ...

How times have changed

Squid = flowers = genius

cathpip · 28/07/2013 17:45

Ah yes, the lasagne has no meat in it but lentils instead - oops! But it's also your favourite :)

altostratus · 28/07/2013 17:44

Squid is pasta rings here Smile

Dear dc, those sweeties I let you have as a special treat occasionally - they are actually vitamin supplements.

mrsjay · 28/07/2013 17:40

Those wind up chattering teeth you won in the pass the parcel, you know, the ones you have been teasing the dog with for a week - sorry but I lost them. They slipped out of my pocket and into a bin on the retail park. Sorry about that...

ImTooHecsyForYourParty · 28/07/2013 17:35

She's my nemesis, that's who she is.

I'll be the moustache twirling villain and she can be the kindly old lady foiling my dastardly schemes.

Every time she comes on a thread to slap me down, I'll give my tach a tweek, shake my fist and cry damn you, woman, you have undone me once more...

Enquiring minds need to know

RatUpADrainpipe · 28/07/2013 17:34

mrsjay · 28/07/2013 17:31

StealthPolarBear · 28/07/2013 17:29

Ahhhh have I just figured out who LadyMH is??
Silly me

TheDetective · 28/07/2013 17:29

Puffin

Best. Idea. EVER!

D0oinMeCleanin · 28/07/2013 17:28

I also do not count my blueberries and have no idea how many are in the punnet. Nor do I believe that there is a wee mouse who can open the fridge and nibble the edges of the cheese, dd2 Angry

KirjavaTheCat · 28/07/2013 17:27

Dinosaurs don't actually eat peas, and by eating them you won't grow as big as one. Sorry. But you like them now so it's fine Grin

When I snapped off that cheeky square of chocolate from the cupboard this morning, and you caught me, I wasn't really checking if it was off and the yuckface I pulled was totes pretend Wink

ducklady · 28/07/2013 17:26

And prehaps I should add, dear children,
Wine DOES Make mummy clever!

Doingakatereddy · 28/07/2013 17:25

fancypuffin - for that recorded bedtime hour idea I would vote you mum of the year. Bloody inspired

I hide veg from DS and DH. Veg is good for you bloody sausages every night are not

ducklady · 28/07/2013 17:25

Seems there are a lot of destructive parents out there.
Now I can go wreck that bloody monkey rattle that drives me insane!

D0oinMeCleanin · 28/07/2013 17:24

Dear dd1, I don't really keep bottles full of water spiked with travel sickness pills in my bag when we travel places and I've forgotten to give you your puking pills. It's just plain water and the good old placebo effect Grin

Also that chicken 'what looks a bit like mushrooms' that's not really chicken.

Redbull isn't beer and it won't kill you. Nor is Lucozade, Monster or Relentless.

I don't know Santa's email address and the tooth fairy does not fly to Spain on holiday frequently.

Shops are in fact allowed to sell cakes and sweets before lunchtime/after dinner time. They're also allowed to sell toys in December.

MissStrawberry · 28/07/2013 17:24

I think it is lovely that some of you are carrying on with your children traditions that your parents did with you. Much nicer than being "original" for the sake of it.

Graceparkhill · 28/07/2013 17:19

DS1 -as you will be 21 next month perhaps I ought to tell you that the noisy, expensive ride along toys outside every supermarket were not always broken .
DS2 - nearly 14 . The Duke of Edinburgh scheme is not compulsory but if you don't move farther than your laptop in the coming year I fear you are heading for DVT.

PicnicPie · 28/07/2013 17:18

This thread had made me laugh out loud a few times. DD is only 7 months but I will definitely be keeping some of these for future reference.
