taking 2 children - is this feasible?

[harpsichordcarrier]

dd1 wants to go swimming today (she is 2.5 and fairly sensible). I had a notion to take her and dd2 (6 weeks) and have dd2 by the side of the pool in her car seat watching us. DD1 does need quite a bit of supervision in the pool although we generally just splash around in a shallow beachy area. we don't usually stay long.
is this going to work or am I being a loon?

I read a poem called ballad of the harp weaver last night and I thought of you, btw.

oi franny what about my new names??

whispers CAN you take DD2 to the pool then? Have you called yet?

ah they said:
i can take her IN the pool (too scary as she is only six weeks old and a bit too floppy still) but NOT leave her at the poolside in case someone STEALS her.
but I can leave her in the creche....
which is not open this week.
so no swimming for us.
ho hum the freezing cold park it is then

Yes well your names do all seem to involve a play on the word 'fanny'. Without wanting to appear nitpicky I am trying to disassociate myself in the minds of Mumsnetters from the word fanny.

Sorry to hear about the pool. Could you not say you don't mind, actually, if she is stolen, as you have her microchipped?

Don't go to the park, it's ridiculously cold and you will die. Haven't you got soft play in your village? You would like it there, they have Quavers.

alright then how about

TheCorrectTermIsVulvaActually

i did say to the woman, oh don't worry about her getting stolen - they'll have her back in a TRICE when she starts to cry and anyway I have another one.

yes we have soft play but I am feeling weary at the thought. there will be Big Children, for a start.

Oh bring her round here and Gail can look after them all while we taunt dp and throw bits of rice at him.

Go on.

franny I fear either you are making a seedy suggestion or you may have rather missed the point

and you must admit frannymagnet is funny

Yes it is funny. But I am still not having a gynaecological name.

How about I am making a seedy suggestion and I have missed the point?

I am NOT changing my name to frannymagnet, unless you two become vulvacarrier and DingDongLabiaTowersCalling.
