I must say Richard Dawkins' work appealed to me in my Bitter Sceptic phase, but I haven't been quite so impressed when revisiting it recently - we may be credulous, but if we dismissed everything we didn't understand as nonexistent, science would never get anywhere.
We need the crystal-wielders to keep us rigorous, like a two-party parliament. Ish. I still sprayed when I read the 'say no to anticlockwise foot massage' post though.

NB I've heard lots of people tell the wheelchair story - either he's a bad driver or does it on purpose so people talk about him .

he never ran over my foot although for some reason I always seemed to be stuck behind him on a narrow pavement when I was in a tearing hurry, having to restrain myself from shouting "come ON come ON"

whortleberry · 06/07/2006 09:53

Not surprised you were in a hurry. That harpsichord must be heavy.

stephen Hawkins is quite trendy........ wasnt he on a pink floyd album once????............

god this took me back. I paid an inordinate amount of money for Holistic Baby classes where some dozy hippy told me that my boy was a "cold" baby and so shouldn't have hot food (or some such gibberish) and to be patronised by extremely yummy mummys

CristinaTheAstonishing · 06/07/2006 11:23

LOl at the cold baby. I am usually very bright (modest too) but I went really soft during my first pg and nearly fell for all the "alternative" crap out there. Alternative to rationality, obviously.

I remember sweating profusely on the floor of a well inentioned friend's house at "aromatherapy baby massage". The heating had to be on max as our little newborn petals would be nudey on their changing mats. (Yes arrived with changing mat & towel - as well as all the usual crap.)
An extremely bossy Hyacinth Bucket type woman then told us all about our newborns (because she instantly knew them all) and we rubbed oily stuff into their fretful little bodies.
Was an absolute nightmare, I was dripping (literally) with post-natal sweat, my ds screamed the entire way through it, kneeling on the floor I was crippled with sciatica & SPD which had yet to disappear and couldn't believe I was stupid enough to pay for this torture!!!
The joys of first-time motherhood. I was definitely right up there in Nobland!!!

whortleberry · 06/07/2006 17:54

Read that as muscly classes, Enid. New level of nobbism, muscly baby classes.

cupcakes · 06/07/2006 17:56

dd used to love baby massage - especially when she weed on me.

I know I'm not going to get round to anything with baby no 3 and I'm going to have no friends with babies and the child is going to grow up having to play with dd and ds's friends.

phillip · 06/07/2006 17:58

I think post-Gwyneth, all baby yoga is inexcusable

i have to sing a bit too, but not too much, it would help if some mums would join in too! some of these classes are a good way for new mums to meet others
