To stay hidden?

[BeansMcCready]

I'm at the IL's house playing hide and seek with a gazillion children. I've been in this wardrobe for 15 mins and I think they have forgotten me. Would it be unreasonable to stay hidden for the rest of the day?

To avoid drop feeding, I've hidden myself in the same cuboard where MIL has hidden 11 Easter eggs, my phone has 56% battery and the DCs and their cousins are really loud!

Eat an egg and have a snooze

My god do not leave

You're definitely locked in the cupboard, you're feeling faint and your blood sugar is dangerously low. You must eat an egg, surely?

Does the cupboard have a lock on the inside? Just in case they try to find you?

Very faint, shakey almost... maybe I could just eat the malteasers...

Eat two to be sure

Foiled - found by my own son. Traitor!

3 is a nice round number. 5 is better still. But that would then leave 6 which isn't a nice number so you'd have to eat 1 to make it 5. But then you'd have eaten 6 and that's not good. You'll have to round it up to 10 eaten and 1 left. They're decent enough numbers. And don't forget to shred the cardboard into little pieces - mice love to burrow in wardrobes and build nests out of anything going. And they love chocolate. Apparently. No really, you're sure you read that somewhere.

God and you gave him life!! No justice there.

Can your son be convinced to stay in with you - game of sardines. How you deal with the clear and present danger of the choc is up to you.

Eat it! Eat it! Eat it!
