motherhen Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Just make sure you don't even breath on MD's pc - unless you are dusting it of course - you could be demoted to living in the shed! I have suggested to MD that she give you some incentive tasks to enable you to improve your lot in life - so the future isn't all bleak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 talking of things children say my daughter and friend (both aged were discussing weddings as we drove along and this was overheard 'some people don't want other peoples children to be their bridesmaids so they have their children first so they can have them as bridesmaids I was so distracted I accidentally turned into Nibley bird farm and just by coincidence there were some White Star POL newly arrived I know she is white, but surely not bridesmaid material Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murdo Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Just make sure you don't even breath on MD's pc - unless you are dusting it of course - you could be demoted to living in the shed! Although we do have a shed it's far too grand for me to be allowed to live in in it. Please don't start debate of where on the premises I should be allowed. Currently using said PC because she shouldn't be up for ages yet, and it's far better than the one the rest of us are allowed to use !

Mrs Blue Sky Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 We had our Easter Egg hunt in the garden first thing this morning, and despite my cruel command that no chocky scoffing was going to happen until after lunch, they managed to scrump some maltesers and some mini eggs and clear off with them.. I wasn't so bothered about it really, after all it is Easter - but imagine my surprise when Robbie rushed into the kitchen and announced "mummy my ears are FULL of chocolate"... and they were I think his mouth was full of maltesers and he was stuck for somewhere to stow some more... and they just fitted so nicely I suppose. And then melted, so more went in as it was so interesting. How 3 is that?? We got it all out in the end, with Plum's crop syringe and some soapy water and it was a lot more fun than peeling spuds.

Chicken on a mission Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Well that's children for you. I live in dread at what the next thing Esme will say or do is I hope you lectured him on the dire waste of chocolate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellcat Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Classic! So like a 3 year old boy! Mine wasnt allowed his egg (by his uncle, by the way, so much for being in charge of your own kids, I guess I'll just cook the dinner and stretch a meal for 4 to 5, then 7, then until after his (somewhat diminished) lunch, then he got hold of it and went face down onto the top! He came out a while later with chocolate tide marks round his forhead! top marks, i thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Managing Director Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 in a desparate bid to distract unruly child patients I sometimes ask them to guess what other pets I might have apart from the dogs and cats, the revelation that I have 7 chickens is usually greeted with bemused silence but today the cute but recalcitant 8 year old looked at me for a while then said 'chickens that lay blue eggs?..... ' that's cool, weird but cool ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 Martin, that is NOT something to be proud of! There is life outside the forum, but not as we know it!

Guest Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 No, I'm ashamed of the number of times I have posted. It's proof of the amount of time I have spent on the forum. I am pretty sure that an analysis of my posts would show that most are in the Nesting Box and therefore completely unnecessary (but very nice to chat to all my friends here!). I am not in the least, tiniest, weeniest bit jealous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
