actually foxy, if it's a review you're after i'd say that this week's ep is more a means to an end than a great ep in itself. it sets up the following week more than anything else.

good article

I work Sundays for £5.75 an hour

kids love being with dad though

foxinsocks · 16/06/2007 14:52

not sure she hates them...hang on, will find it. Was something to do with that anti pyjama school thing.

I know, it wasn't an attack so much as using a rather extraodinary woman to prove - what exactly? Janice spots man at sandpit with blackberry and develops theory about working hours. She's odd Janice Turner. She used to write polemics about how women who gave up work when they had babies were wimps. Now she takes the opposite line. It pays the bills of course and good luck to her but I can't take it seriously.

read her comment

you are obviously her fashionista friend

NKF · 16/06/2007 14:58

Did any of the pyjama mothers (great title by the way) ever comment. Surely someone did a "day in the life of a pyjama mummy."

foxinsocks · 16/06/2007 15:01

I once went to school with my pyjamas on under my uniform (by accident). Thank goodness I noticed at break time and took them off in the loos. Was always a bit of a dopey teenager.

foxinsocks · 16/06/2007 15:02

I imagine they were a bit embarrassed. Probably the press photographers trying to catch them out.

I know a few people who drop their kids off by car and stay in their jim jams.

Kids should be bored to tears and eat meat paste sandwiches on a Sunday like what I used to!!

with your trendy bikini, 8cm high heels and your shiny eyeshadow, how could anyone NOT think of you as a fashion idol?

CuttingCod · 16/06/2007 15:17

foxinsocks · 16/06/2007 16:35

actually, the best thing to do would be to pretend to be someone else...

'aren't you cod?'

'oh nooooo. You just missed her' and wave airily in a sort of vauge direction

Eve · 16/06/2007 16:38

OP posts:
Aitch · 17/06/2007 14:10

you haev never LIEVD!

Eve · 18/06/2007 19:27

She was the one in the magazine who along with her sister, wrote the article and books about games to paly with your kids

Whether or not you have heard of her doesn't take away from the fact that she died this week at 43 leaving two very small children.
