God, why are some mums so bloody dull??

[allgonebellyup]

Just need to rant..all the playground/toddler grp conversations seem to revolve around:

• washing,washing machines breaking etc
• does my daughter love ballet, or would she rather do modern? or tap? Oh its so hard to decide, i dont know what to choose,hmm, oh its such a rush after school getting to all these places, blardy blah..
• are you preparing recipes for the school cook book? (er, no)
• OOh are you going to the PTA meeting after school, theyre talking about the new fences that are being put up (yeah like i care!) -my husband thinks our new 4X4 isnt big enough for the kids, we only have one child but oh we really do need more space..so we have to buy the hugest fukking land rover we can find in london -we tried to get ds to sleep at 7.15 last night but he was cranky and didnt drop off til 7.30 so i didnt have time to get all my ironing done..blardy blaardy bores...

Does my head in!! dont they have any interests? any ideas of what is happening in the rest of the world? no jobs to go to, or issues to focus on????

ahh that explains why they don't talk to me - they're too busy talking about their new washing machines etc.

Hey i didnt say weighty topics, its just there is more to life than having babies, cooking, cleaning, shopping at tesco and gossiping.
So what if i like to go to ibiza, there must be interests these other women have that dont revolve around school, kids, cleaning etc..? Why dont they develop some interests?
For instance none of them seem to own any CDs......there are so many types of music, surely you cant not like ANY??

finally mn is making me again lololol at pretty much everything on this thread. hilar

"any ideas of what is happening in the rest of the world? no jobs to go to, or issues to focus on???? "

And none of them have any ambition!
They never want to work and are happy to rely on dear old hubby to make all the money even when all their children are at school!

But owning CD's isn't an 'interest'.

It's just something to listen to when you're looking after children, doing the house-work, gossiping and generally being dullsville.

People who talk about their jobs are usually the most boring people alive ime....

PTA = Yawn

HEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO!

There you go, Littlelapin. I just shouted at you.

Think I would rather talk about PTA than clubbing tbh and I am far from dull.

You sound rather presumptious too.

PTA = having an interest in your child's school

i dont expect them to be interested in ibiza at all! just have their own interests, hobbies, but most of them arent interested in ANYTHING!

I have an interest in politics and topical events, I have an eclectic music collection, I read constantly and have travelled over most of Europe and some of Africa, I have worked for most of my adult life in various different industries, all of which would be worthy of comment.

However, when faced with mums that I don't know particularly well (or want to know better, perhaps) I stick to "safe" subjects such as washing, washing machines, ballet, recipes and sleep times.

Ah well I am going to join the PTA. The two really interesting woman I met at mums'n'tots go to it, so I will too (and it is in the pub )

(twice )

That's how it is with me.

I've had a hangover after a PTA meeting before now. Actually, more than once
Bloody interesting women with interesting jobs and lives, actually.
