DCs wanted to watch Mary Poppins this afternoon, which is fine. It's on and the kids are happy.

However, I've just remembered the chimney sweep is coming in about an hour.

Is he going to think I'm a piss taker when he walks into the house and Chim Chimney is belting out of the TV!?

Ha, that made me laugh more than it should've 😆

Lol that's brilliant. Let us know what he says

NannaNoodleman · 19/08/2019 15:16

It's going to come on the minute he arrives and I'll end up awkwardly over explaining why that the kids wanted it on... we'll never be able to get the chimney swept ever again!!

Brilliant! Get the kids up doing the chim chimery dance when he comes in. Go the whole hog, costumes, make up etc ( I’m joking by the way, there aren’t that many sweeps out there and you might be looking for a new one!)

The chimney sweep scene has just started. He's due at 4 and I think this lasts much longer than 5 minutes.

It'll be full blown dancing on chimney pots just in time for his arrival.

I'm thinking of making it a regular thing: A soundtrack to life.

If you are lucky, he might join in and do a few whirls around the living room.
I hope you didn't forget to shake 'is 'and for luck, guv'nor!

Step in time.....step in time......never need a reason, never need a rhyme......

Haven't seen the kids since 4pm and the noise on the roof is unbearable... heavy seagulls up there!
