Rowan, Olivia, Kate, Amy, Another Helen and Company. Come here a minute would you my darlings.

I've been thinking.

You guys work too hard. So you can have the night off.

Go on, off you pop. Find some gin and a comfy sofa. I'll even babysit Peace and Love for Olivia.

I'll take care of this rabble for the evening.

Yay!

Now everyone, do exactly what honey says or I'll use the depressingly ineffective stern voice

Stern looks just make me giggle so I'd totally lose the authority there.

I can make 30 preschoolers freeze, just with power of my mum stare
Either that, or they've seen I've got the blue paint out.....

Speaking of blue paint

When do I get to babysit Peace and Love?

Honey, first you must promise to leave the Immac at home.

… and Hully.

I'm not allowed hair removal cream

Hullygully is fabulous with children, well ones that like running away screaming, she is.

Which Hully are we talking about now?

When do I get to babysit Peace and Love?

WHENEVER YOU LIKE! Widely available for handing out.

Can we put all Christmas Threads into the Christmas Topic?

Olivia, you are a mother after my own heart (hope you and Love and Peace are very well indeed )

I am under the impression that Hully, the MNer, is less hairy than Hully, the pup, but if HD has been busy with the Immac that may no longer be true.

Trills, are you seriously making a serious suggestion on HD's thread??

Optimist.
But YANBU.

I was actually speaking a special incantation to summon MaryZ - but I can see where the confusion comes from :o

Ah! Of course!

Christmas, christmas, christmas

Am I doing it right?

See, it worked!

Trills, are you a witch?
Cool.

MaryZ, but, but, but… I agree with you about Christmas an'all!

I like Christmas.

Christmas is the BEST.

Thanks Olivia .... I do LOVE twins. We have a fantastic pair I look after sometimes who's skill at hitting each other with Tonka trucks is only surpassed by their ability to run at the speed of light and climb inappropriate objects in OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS.

it's Sophie's fucking choice every time you got to the park

Aw... i missed this and you NEARLY EVEN got my name right. Is it time to change the name, do we think? Or am I forever just not as good as the original and best Helen?

DO NOT ANSWER THAT.

"Yet Another" sounds like there are at least two who were here first...
