She was probably just completely stressed and couldn't cope with staying anymore. I know I go into fixed 'get me out of here' mode when ds1 does things like that.

For the lovely helpful couple who watched my sun tumble head first out of his trolly in matalan. He had stood up in the seat whilst my back was turned and fell on his head. They shook their heads at me and walked off. Fuckers.

To my neighbour who gave my 7 year old daughter and 5 friends a one finger salute as they were playing out in the street at 8.30 am ONCE. On. Her. Birthday.

bookswapper · 17/08/2008 22:06

just the classes at the local private school...all the other JJ classes seem perfectly normal!!! Now my local playgroup....well I felt I had to join the committee at least to display the hair of the non-tonged masses....

you need a wrapover/around jumper, patterned skirt and beads around here - which I have, but they are below my normal social circle so I tend not to attend

PussinJimmyChoos · 17/08/2008 22:11

I don't wear this look as am not thin enough but I do like the pearl/sunglasses and collar up combo....I think I need to leave now....

Octothechildherder · 17/08/2008 22:14

Oh yes, I forgot to mention the woman who told my DH that he may as well have given DS1 Red Bull because he let him have a sip of coke. Her kids were drinking Fruit Shoots...

Oh saggy, I came across someone like that once. At a park while dts and some other children were climbing on some low lying trees, as kids do.

Snotty bitch comes by and says loudly to her kids "No the parkie doesn't like children to climb the trees you are not supposed to."

I don't think she was expecting me to say equally loudly "Well I don't see any signs and trees are there to be climbed on." It upset dts she said that. Stupid mare had kids who looked so miserable. It wasn't like the children were wrecking the trees, the branches were sturdy enough and the children were all little.

Some folk are so miserable they can't stand to see others being normal.

i had a good one on saturday!!!!

turned my back on dd's for a minute while at the park and they started to climb up the slide, i shouted at them to get down which they did.

some snooty woman made a huge fuss about the slide now being dirty and ordered her dd to tie her jacket around her waist before using it.

the dd done this but as it was a waterproof jacket she went flying down the slide like a bullet lost all control at the bottom and fell straight into a large muddy puddle.

had she just let her go down the slide she may have had a bit of dirt on her jeans but at least she would still be dry.

falcon · 18/08/2008 21:44

Why would anyone take their child to the park specifically to play and worry about them getting dirty?

Surely it's inevitable and a natural part of play, and if one is so concerned about it then they'd best stay at home and read where they don't have to worry about a little mud.
