ds not settling tonight, have filled the teat of his dummy with red label thunderbird, is this ok to do?

[lucykate]

just an attempt to divert away from all the big brother threads. i haven't really, honest.

can you even still buy red label thunderbird???

what is red label thunderbird

my ds would love anything thunderbird-like

Oh - I used to have Thunderbird ages ago as a student.

As long as you don't do it every night it will be O.K!

its an awful strong alcholic drink that students used to drink

i can't believe yoou would consider putting thunderbird in a childs teet
i think brandy would be better

I remember thunderbird, how about snakebite....with a nice bit of ribena to rot the teeth as well?

gramps used to put whiskey in my night milk. yum!

ooooooooooo, snakebite, i'd forgotton all about snakebike

Awwww thunderbirs that's for jessies

try the hard stuff the eldorado "tonic wine" it would settle a bleeding bison letalone a baby- apply liberally

Ooh what about Maddog 20/20 or just go for Buckfast cheap and kind of smells like cough mixture, which is good if you get unexpected visits from the HV.

Oh please, Smirnoff Blue Label every time.

ooh i remember thunderbird.
buckfast too, lked that, well the one time had it, never forgotton

Bucky!!!Lanarkshire tipple probably most toxic thing going - bleugh

Comatose baby on that

in my student days i was a cider and blackcurrant or lager girl...followed by some curry chips...

polish off with a pickled onion

We used to mix thunderbird with liebfraumilch. the effects were devastating (from what i can remember

oooh, thunderbird - that takes me back
Now, who remembers blastaway, a delectable mix of castaway (shocking 5alive style alchopop) & diamond white - class in a glass...

I used to love Blastaway!

I have a friend who still drinks blastaway! Think she's had to find an alternative to the castaway part nowadays though

right - that's me sorted for my next visit to the pub then

Thunderbird.... ah them was the days! lol

Yes I think it's perfectly acceptable to fill the teat of his dummy with Thunderbird, but don't forget to roll it in jam and then coat with sugar!

If he doesn't sleep..... then I think you might have to start on the Jamaican Rum... but don't forget to give him some in his milk. hth

Blimey I thought you were trying to bait the mummy police. I don't watch TV. Gave it up when I was pregnant with my daughter so have no bloody idea what Big Brother is (please don't enlighten me).

However my MiL INSISTS that a tot of whisky in a bottle last thing at night is just the ticket for getting babies to sleep (she's not allowed to babysit for obvious reasons). She's 80. My husband drinks too much. Can anyone see a connection?
