Can I put it in the fridge,triple wrapped obviously?It won't affect testing will it? I dare not leave it until tomorrow as was lucky to get this one.

That was officially the most revolting thing I've done as a parent to date!!!!!!!!

Really sorry I had to ask.

AM so tempted to post sleep with it under your pillow

I would say triple wrap and in the fridge. Put a big sign on it to avoid mistakes with no students or similar coming home late fancying some chocolate fudge cake and spying it in the fridge

as a nursery nurse can you believe that I have had parents ask me to "catch" poo samples for them
bloody check of it
not nice is it?

Hotcross !!!!!! Would have loved to hear your answer

No it's hideous,I did wimp out of scrabbling around in the loo,made him do it on foil in an old washing up bowl-top tip-very little handling involved. Dp was gagging and making a big fuss

Ds got 50p for telling me he was about to produce-very chuffed

Thanks all is now safely tucked away in a box in the fridge

I smiled sweetly and said "Very sorry, but they got to the toilet before me, pooed and flushed"
parent had to take the next day off work and do it themselves
how inconvenient for them
