to think that my childminder is supplying drugs to my wife...

I have an older wife who is about the same age as our childminder. My childminder is very odd, she says she is a grandmother but no-one has ever seen evidence of children, she lives in a dingy basement flat near the river and has a dummy in her front room that she talks to and dresses up. so I have always thought she ws a bit odd.
My wife is a taxi driver but only ever seems to have one fare a day, and then she never seems to have made any money. She has been known to spend hours ferrying one passenger across town. I wonder if she is going off and getting waster with our CM and this is where all the money goes?
She is weirdly happy for someone in such a low wage job and although she seems to have plenty of time in the mornings she hardly ever gets up in tiem to take our DD to the CM.

What do you think?

ILMT - are you sure your DW isn't a, err, DUDE???

Yes, Notreallycutoutforthis, and where has she left Pippin?

God I watched that programme thinking the whole time - WHO IS SHE!!! And then I twigged, it was Isa - she just plays exactly the same character as in Still Game

Isa

As soon as me and OH saw Aunt Mabel on Enders we exclaimed that across the country parent would be asking where Pippin and her spotty plane where!

Best weird kids trippy programme is Yo Gabba Gabba on Nick Jnr, its like the Deee-lite video for kids.

Personally I'm very suspicious that you never seem to see Charlie & Lola's parents...

duchesse · 19/11/2008 14:38

Charlie is evidently a young carer, probably of those poor unfortunates who seem to slip through the net...

SpandexIsMyEnemy · 19/11/2008 14:39

Is it the same CM that sells it to all MN??????

I really think you should stop moaning about your hardworking childminder who works day and night and spend some time stocking up your buffet car. I fail to see how one plate of buns could possible satisfy all your passengers.

....also if you spent less time on amateur dramatics you might be able to spend more time with your child.
