Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I'm going to Laserquest with 10 kids from my (special needs) school tomorrow. Can't wait . And even better than that, we're going to McDonald's for lunch afterwards . Does life get any better than this . Might just take a packed lunch ("oops, forgot about McDonalds, oh well, shame to waste it"). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Sounds brilliant Vicki! I love laserquest (and I'm quite partial to a McDs as well! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 Oh dear, was my sarcasm too thinly veiled . I'm not looking forward to it at all - they'll probably all end up fighting and I'm not too keen on McDonalds (always sounds good in theory until you've eaten it). Never mind, only 3 sleeps till my Christmas holidays start . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I did figure it was sarcastic But surely fighting is the point of laserquest, they'll have a ball and wear themselves out shooting you and each other and hopefully be too tired to play up in McDs, and if they do play up in McDs, who cares? Kids ALWAYS play up in McDs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 Tis true, I can't really complain if they fight IN Laserquest! I was more worried about before and after it. Did I mention that they're 13-14 years old? Capable of quite impressive fighting when they want! OK, I'll stop being a bah humbug now - I WILL ENJOY MYSELF, I WILL ENJOY MYSELF.

Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 Well, it's a Christmas miracle! I enjoyed myself today . The kids were great, they all got on really well and enjoyed Laserquest. Us 4 adults had a Starbucks cinammon latte and a muffin while they were in there and I even managed to get a present for OH from Run and Become (next door to Laserquest). Nice leisurely walk to McDonalds where they all ate c**p in a bap (sorry, that's OH's description ) but I didn't as I still felt a bit after all the cream in my latte. Model behaviour from all - even the adults . Then a stroll through Princes Street Gardens to see the reindeer (very cute!) and bus back to school. And all in sub-zero temperatures . Tonight the girlies will mainly be wearing a travelling rug on their eglu and vaseline on their combs . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
