To be quite annoyed with DS

I know, I know, it's the festive season. Fine. Whatever. He's all excited.

Yesterday, there was a giant snowfall, and DS made a snowman in the front garden. He spent ages on it, and did a really great job.

But then, last night, after we all went to bed, I vaguely remember him clomping about in my room, putting my clothes and hat on his snowman, which he had brought inside. What sort of moron brings a sodding snowman into the house and then dresses it in my best hat?!?

You've had snow

How old is he? Very funny when its someone else's house.

It gets worse ... he took it all around downstairs - the armchair, next to the fire, is all wet!

Then he claims that he went out on DH's motorbike with the snowman.

Is he drunk? Whatever possessed him?

ROFL! Seriously, he brought the snowman inside?

BreevandercampLGJ · 20/12/2008 18:09

Oh God he will have been up in the woods doing the highland fling with perfect strangers.

PMSL.

Am I the only one who's getting this?

ChristmasDisco · 20/12/2008 18:10

I think I may have missed something.....

He's 8. Far too old for this sort of silliness. And WTF is up with the motorbike ... DH doesn't check his mileage that much, so we're not sure. It certainly looks like DS was mucking about with the bike. (Of course, he says the snowman was driving. )

You didn't want that hat for anything special did you ??

Oh and tell your DH his teeth will be back to normal soon.

How did you know!?! He said he went flying with it, too, but that was clearly a dream, right?

Ok, that's freaky. Yes, DH's teeth were on my dressing table.

You don't know the half of it.....

BreevandercampLGJ · 20/12/2008 18:17

Is your Christmas tree looking a bit ropey, I should think he fell into that too.

edam · 20/12/2008 18:22

Oh god, it is ...

Is there some sort of rash of snowman-related stupidity going on with our children? Does this happen to everyone?!?

Have the media been alerted?

From what I gather it is quite an educational time, they get see lots of the world.

BreevandercampLGJ · 20/12/2008 18:28

Edam is that a doh of recognition ??

Well, DS did say he went to the North Pole. But he also said he saw penguins there, so I was more than a little at the whole thing.

OP posts:
BreevandercampLGJ · 20/12/2008 18:32

Did he not go to Moscow as well ??

I believe my DS mentioned Switzerland.

tissy · 20/12/2008 18:32

does he have a new scarf, perchance?

BreevandercampLGJ · 20/12/2008 18:36

Now that you mention it my DS left the house this morning wearing one I did not recognise, can't speak for Master NQC.
