Took dd to MacDonalds today. For us this is a holiday treat as we enjoy the odd burger, although dd is really just lured by the plastic tat in the happy meal TBH. She is slim and eats normally rest of time.

But, bloody hell, the people in there were beyond belief really. Makes me realize how other families actually live and why the health of the country is as it is.

Family 1- all huge, and the youngest dd (aged about 9) was definitely the fattest and not only that she was eating a full sized meal, and worst of all was wearing a full red velour lipsy tracksuit with gold embroidery!!!!!

Family 2- Two boys with their dad, all sat vacantly staring at their food and munching away. First boy opens his (supersize) fries and says "wheres the salt?" Dad doesn't say anything, just fishes in the papers on his tray and passes packet of salt to child. The chips are ALREADY covered in far too much salt, especially for kids, and if the child asks for salt this makes me think this is a regular thing for him, to cover his food in salt.

Don't these people take any responsibility for their health AT ALL?

I know red

Did you see the bit where I referred to ds1?

Poor little sod, one hint of sun and burns

I have three children, all have the same lotion applied at the same time

One...chocolate brown in seconds
One....golden brown
One....if he isn't luminous white then he is lobster red, no in between

The fact that people get burnt is no reflection (ha) on their suntan lotion applying,..but I can't help it (it's my mums fault...ds1 has inherited his complete lack of tanning from her!)

RufusTheReindeer · 14/04/2014 18:05

Oh and that p20 all day stuff????? Does not work on ds1 or me!!!!

If it's a holiday treat for you, how do you know it's not a holiday treat for them?

Being a vegetarian (and a fat one too!) I judge everyone who eats at McDonald's!!

ghostspirit · 14/04/2014 20:33

HoneyDragonDoesNotGiveAShit · 14/04/2014 21:01

Going to McDs for a carrot bag is just crap and depressing.

I judge everybody who goes to McDonald, fat or slim. So there!

Agreed. Like taking children into a sweetshop and saying that they can't have any.

I got sunburnt through a t-shirt once.
I've never felt more British in my life.

I got sunburnt through a t-shirt in Minehead (Butlins) when I was a child - huge bloody blisters. There is a picture of a Butlins person with their hand on my shoulder and my face is a picture of excruciating pain. I am far too pale for the sun. Bah. Summer Angry

Funniest conversation I ever overheard was in McDonalds,

A young, pregnant woman was having a row with her DP,

"If yir nae giein me a fag, yir nae gettin ony o ma milkshake!"

Kept me amused for hours Grin
