To think slime should be considered about as acceptable as, say, novichok?

Arghhh, yesterday was always going to be a challenge as hosting younger family guests and very elderly FIL. All was going well until dn opened a gift from another relative ( not present) and in the excitement nobody noticed until too late he’d opened a container of some toxic goo in shades of violent turquoise which he has spilled liberally over our pale grey sofa.

Chaos, tense moments and emergency applications of water, vanish and curses really didn’t much add to the festive fun.

So WHY THE ACTUAL FUCK DOES THIS STUFF EXIST?

Disclaimer I don’t blame him (much). So bloody, bloody annoyed though.

(To avoid drip feeding they did as a family grate a fair bit by arriving late, not bringing what they promised, not helping much and staying several hours too long - which I guess proves I put on a good act of loving it all. )

Not sure if there is any point to this other than another place for others to vent rage Smile.

Slime is one of those things that only the parents child should buy rather than other people (unless you really hate the parents).
