Is this about the car seat thread?

Proudnscary · 28/11/2011 13:26

Whatmeworry - no she had a six inch spike on her head not a cushion

I suppose it helps lateral staibiity, but requires verrry careful positioning.

Reminds me of a nun joke about saddles....

Proudnscary · 28/11/2011 13:29

Whatmeworry - I just don't think you're taking this seriously enough.

Wind yer neck in OP

Clearly all she has to do is impale the child on the spike and all will be well

^^ You can't get into Pedants' Corner as you put your apostrophe in the wrong place. Grin

Thing is, Proud, if she had a Gregg's sausage roll in her gob then all would be forgiven.

KateMiddIeton · 28/11/2011 13:35

Please tell me you are also apaulled

MmeLindor. · 28/11/2011 13:36

As A Mother, I find it disgusting and appalling that anyone would even venture to offer an opinion on ANYTHING at all, unless they have begot a child.

As A Mother, I like to start my sentences like this, as the fact that I have given birth gives me added gravitas. Obviously.

JinglePosyPerkin · 28/11/2011 13:36

Oh thank you. I really needed a laugh today Grin.

RockStockAndTwoOpenBottles · 28/11/2011 13:38

Mme - I have four. Is that enough to qualify for spouting crap?

Free spirit! Can you take a picture next time please, would have loved to see that.
My guess is that her car broke down, she was running late and thought, what the heck!

Uh oh proud, this is one of those occasions where the mother in question happens to be a MNer and has caught you slagging her off to the world...

That's a good point OP, which way was the DD facing.

Proudnscary · 28/11/2011 13:52

Fourthousand - Wind my neck in?? Wind my neck in?? If it wasn't for concerned mothers like me, parents would be unicycling all over the streets juggling children and fruit shoots like some sort of demented Dr Seuss book!!!!

OP posts:
TheAlmostFestiveKnid · 28/11/2011 13:53

Don't mock the juggling of children and fruitshoots! Have you ever tried to juggle both, at the same time? It's surprisingly difficult. Especially on a unicycle.

Anyway, I'm uphauled.

tooearlymustdache · 28/11/2011 13:56

you've more chance of getting me on a unicycle than conforming to your grammatical rules and regulations Rock

Proudnscary · 28/11/2011 13:56

Whatmeworry - north west I think

OP posts:
TheAlmostFestiveKnid · 28/11/2011 13:57

North west? In this weather? How very unresponsible.

Whatmeworry · 28/11/2011 14:01

Whatmeworry - north west I think

Ah - drip feeding - much better

MmeLindor. · 28/11/2011 14:03

Rock,
As A Mother, I think that you are amply qualified to judge on this issue.
