Triplets are asleep. WIBU to go out to get food?

[AKMD]

DC have been moaning and squabbling and fighting all day. The house is a hole. There is rubbish everywhere - craft debris, random twigs, leaves, owl feathers DH is off in a field somewhere doing wilderness survivial DD has been annoying the DS's, DS1 copies everything she does, which is driving me MAD, and DS2 is so clingy I haven't been able to leave his sight all day. They are finally asleep.

There isn't anything in the house for us to eat tomorrow. It's next to impossible to go out with the DC and DH isn't coming back until goodness knows when. WIBU to pop out for a few minutes to get food?

Owls?

I would say they are foxes and OP is watching the foxcam programme..

You have 3 DCs, is eating one a possibility?

I have 3 DCs, they have always known that if push came to shove then we would barbecue the youngest, make a thin soup out of the middle one (he really is terribly skinny) and keep the oldest as a domestic slave.

YWBU to leave them to go and and forage for food as they might eat each other out of order and then where would you be?

Tut tut, some people have no idea about domestic economy.

They might decide to all sit on the same branch.

yabu. From a fire safety point of view if nothing else.

Can you order pizza for your tea?

The house is a hole is a clue
Wilderness survival another.. they are all owls...but I cannot for the life of me remember the name of that picture book..oh yes OWL BABIES

MrsJamin you spoilsport :o

Sorry everyone, that was childish I know but on the plus side DH is sitting here giggling while I have tears streaming down my face from laughing so hard. Thankyou for humouring me

The OPs a long term poster I think, so not a horrible troll MadamC.

So what are they then.

Ha ha ha this cheered me up

Ah, my apologies OP. Just being a minx then

Hell's teeth was this a joke?

Someone is going to have to spell it out for me I think.

I don't get it

Owls don't chew, they don't have teeth.

I am not a troll, I am a mother in serious need of help and support

Owl Babies

Barbeque? Mmm...

AKMD, I have chartered a private chopper to fly over with a food parcel for you and your three darling triplets by way of apology. I haven't included food for your DH as he is supposed to be in a field somewhere. However, if he can provide co-ordinates for his location, I will send food parcels stat.

I'm never sure which baby is more annoying, Sarah or Bill. Percy is just the classic forgotten middle child.

[jumps up and down] I knew that I knew that, before Mrs Jamin posted her link! [x posts]

:o

You both need to get out a lot more

Oops sorry I thought it was getting so obvious I thought you were going to be outed soon anyway! Love that book.

Yes, you can tell there's a recession on....in years passed we'd all be out
getting rat arsed on a bank holiday monday.

Now we have to resort to this???
