To want to punch this grannie in the face

debbie1412 · 24/01/2013 21:49

We go to a stay and play every Thursday morning, usual thing toys for 90 mins then a few songs with instruments to finish the session. Every single wk this boy a year older than my son dives in the box and pulls out the 1 accordion. My son every wk wants ago on this instrument, the boy claims it. Then drops it to run off and play else where. His nan knows how much my son wants ago on it but she holds it out of reach from my son. It's so cruel his little lip drops. I would never let my child hog a toy wk in and out. Makes my blood boil !

Quint, he brought pears and a pineapple. The pineapple wasn't ripe though so that was one big waste ofvtime.

PureQuintessence · 24/01/2013 22:51

Well, pears are much more fun than pineapples!

Salmotrutta · 24/01/2013 22:52

The granny is silky??

How does she manage that then?

I wannabe a silky granny!

I'm only a plain old granny.

Snot fair.

ResolutelyCheeky · 24/01/2013 22:52

If she us silky that punch is going to slide straight off. No affect whatsoever

ResolutelyCheeky · 24/01/2013 22:52

Effect

X-post wiv reallycheeky

Great minds. Great minds.

Salmotrutta · 24/01/2013 22:54

ResolutelyCheeky even.

HoneyDragon · 24/01/2013 22:55

So Op, do you feel better yet? Grin

Salmotrutta · 24/01/2013 22:57

She won't feel better till she has actually Punched The Granny.

It's a bit like Jumping The Shark.

TuftyFinch · 24/01/2013 22:58

I think we've solved it. Plenty of options available.
Aggression is never a good way to go. Do they have a peace pipe in the toy box? Should do, most librarys have them these days.

HoneyDragon · 24/01/2013 22:59

I've got a Peace Pipe

ResolutelyCheeky · 24/01/2013 22:59

Nooo, you poke the shark in the eye whilst distracting him with the clarinet!

fuckadoodlepoopoo · 24/01/2013 22:59

What's this about a ball boy?

HoneyDragon · 24/01/2013 23:00

Why not poke the shark with the clarinet?

Salmotrutta · 24/01/2013 23:00

Stuff the peace pipe.

OP should go out and buy some tubular bells.

Nice and wanky.

CarriedAwayAnnie · 24/01/2013 23:01

"Steal the accordion and take it home. Take a photo of it in bed with you and she's not looking put the photo in her bag"

made me snort with laughter.

ResolutelyCheeky · 24/01/2013 23:01

Shark eyes very small, beady even

debbie1412 · 24/01/2013 23:01

Lots better thank you.... I knew I was right :-)

Peace pipe??

If they lit that up near my child I'd punch the lot of 'em in the tits.

TOBACCO KILLS don't you know.

Try an ocarina, it's the safest option.

Salmotrutta · 24/01/2013 23:02

OP should possibly book a band of Peruvian Throat Whistlers.

Good value for money I'm told.

LuluMai · 24/01/2013 23:03

I'd just buy him his own tambourine and be done with it. I like to take the easy way out in life.

SomeKindOfDeliciousBiscuit · 24/01/2013 23:03

Buy a real, fuck off big accordion off ebay and bring it in a massive handbag. When she starts dangling the toy one to taunt your son, shout "who wants that shitty little thing. Fuck that. This baby's all yours, my boy." And do a cocksucking gesture at her before helping him manhandle the beast into hideous sound.

HoneyDragon · 24/01/2013 23:03

But he doesn't want a tambourine he wants a blowy pulley warbler wotsit

ResolutelyCheeky · 24/01/2013 23:04

Great idea salmotrutta then she could sell Peruvian rugs in the interval for pay for more accordions! Another problem solved thanks to the great people of Mumsnet
