my old sofa's wooden base used to need banged in with the hammer every day. i left it behind when i moved and the ppl who now live there still have it - after 2 years. it was falling apart!!!!!

allsquareknickersnofurcoat · 25/02/2011 17:02

I think it was the plastic leather effect sofas, rather than leather ones?
:)

My DS started food just before 4 months

I have a silver cross pram

I have laminate floor (god I hate it though!)

I have a large TV

I have a tattoo (getting another next week too)

I am not a feminist

ENormaSnob · 25/02/2011 17:02

I have a brown suade corner sofa.

And a 42" flat screen.

I wear fake tan almost all the time.

I have a lot of pushchairs.

allsquareknickersnofurcoat · 25/02/2011 17:12

I put DS in his bouncer in front of the TV while I mumsnet do housework

FurCoatNoNickname · 25/02/2011 17:13

I have TWO leather sofas, both from DFS.
DC's had chippy chips and ketchup for tea last night.
DS runs away if offered fruit.
DD(3.8)has been known to watch 2 films back to back.

Don't do Greggs though

allsquareknickersnofurcoat · 25/02/2011 17:15

Hello name twin!! :)

droves · 25/02/2011 17:19

Whats wrong with laminate flooring ?
Its hygenic , no where for dustmites fo live.It can be washed , its can withstand playdough/moonsand/posterpaint.

Carpets stink. spend most of time cleaning the rotten things. .... have you walked on carpet thas more than 6 months old in white socks ? try it . you will return to hard floors.

Gregs is my friend. IF dd4 refuses to eat , then its almost guarenteed she will scoff a gregs sausage roll in 5 seconds flat. Or a Happy Meal from McD's.
I let the dc watch cartoons on tv before dinner.

allsquareknickersnofurcoat · 25/02/2011 17:25

droves I hate it cause it gets so dirty so quickly and you can see the dirt. At least carpet hides it, even if it is minging Grin

And its always so cold. Same reason I dont like leather sofas (of any colour Wink)

Am working on getting my daddy to buy me some carpet, trying to persuade him it will be for his darling, doted on grandson rather than me!! Safer when hes toddling or something.....

droves · 25/02/2011 17:25

...we also have almost every disney film ever made on dvd .... and dreamworks cartoons....and various cartoons made for tv on dvd.
.... and tvs & dvds in every room except kichen and bathroom. (dd4 has portable dvd player for emergences like watching shreck whilst in the bath).

3 computers , and various games machines.
All the children have handheld games (nintendos , psp's).

our house loooks like a cross between currys and toys r us.

ds4 loves fruit shoots.

droves · 25/02/2011 17:29

Allsquare tell you dad ds fell and slipped , wearing socks hard floor is very slippy.
Or its too cold and the price of heating has shot up ,so carpet would insulate

He should cave in and help you out if he thinks you are all at risk of injury/hypothermia .

i hate carpet...i have carpet.

mabey its the old "want what you dont have" thing?

pastapestoforgotherpassword · 25/02/2011 17:36

My children shared a donner kebab once after a family wedding, surely that makes me the most unreasonable

RIZZ0 · 25/02/2011 17:42

My kids watch loads of TV.

I leave them alone in a room with the dog. All the time. (That one can get you shot round these parts)

allsquareknickersnofurcoat · 25/02/2011 18:48

Rizz the sheer horror of the MNers finding out that you leave your kids with a wild beast did killed Fred.

MogadoredMemoo · 25/02/2011 18:50

I am not really here, I am in fact dead.

RIZZ0 · 25/02/2011 18:50

Yesm I fink they all fainted.

MissyKLo · 25/02/2011 19:07

Fruit shoots are disgusting - I dont get why so many parents give their kids a taste for them, they are full of shit

I have a brown leather sofa, although have only just discovered this is a no no

Have LAMINATE floor

DD has fruitshoots (but not all the time)

Shop at Tesco online

But i only eat organic meat so that cancels the rest out

Oh, we go on Haven/Butlins type holidays paid for with club card vouchers

I secretly think my "country living magazine swapping/boden wearing" friends are a bunch of twunts

SunshineisSorry · 25/02/2011 19:24

am jealous of allsquarenoknickers' Silver Cross pram!

have a tattoo of DD1s name on my shoulder

We watch disney

DD2 is watching simpsons

hate CC and think its verging on child abuse

earwicga · 25/02/2011 19:25

My children choose milk instead of Fruit Shoots when we go to McDonalds. They are odd.

SunshineisSorry · 25/02/2011 19:26

and heres the biggie - i like porn Blush

i'll get my coat

FebreezeYourJeans · 25/02/2011 19:26

I let my kids watch DVDs in the car, even on short trips.
I don't sweat about salt in foods.
I only make 4 or 5 different meals on rotation, inc pasta & pesto at least twice a week.

I am however a fast food snob and mine have never eaten in one, (pizza hut doesn't count)

unfitmother · 25/02/2011 19:29

I once parked outside a Boden clearance sale and as I got my bag out of the car an empty fruitshoot bottle rolled out.
There was a collective gasp of horror!
The shame was awful, I had to leave town!

KaraStarbuckThrace · 25/02/2011 19:31

I want a leather sofa - coz I want one which I can wipe clean!!

I love Gregg's sausage rolls (I don't think DS (3.2) has had one).

DS has had a happy meal. He doesn't have fruitshoots as he only likes water.

We have a 40" flatscreen TV and we are getting Sky+HD on Monday!

I love Top Gear. And Harry Potter. But not Twilight, though have read them all, just can't see what all the fuss is about.

allsquareknickersnofurcoat · 25/02/2011 19:38

Kara , Sky+HD is the best invention EVER. You will regret it when you don't have time to leave the house as you have so much crap recorded!

Sunshine , I wasnt that brave!! Wink
