the walk out of the front door of Number and down the street must be dire ,.. thatcher was in tears.

Canny move taking the kids - distracted the press and the browns. I took DS to a family funeral when he was 4 - glad I did as it totally distracted me and gave me something to focus on

well they were quite cute! and, lo, the granite one smiles. And we're a forgiving, cheerful lot.
as for PITA, rather sad to see it on page one of google with the last word spelt wrong. Imagine it in its four letter form.

Note to self: take youngest child, who is very cute until you get to know him well, with me next time I have to do something unpleasant involving banks or bosses.

What a great idea! tho I think i may have missed my chance - DD has entered the 'dark years' (teenagerdom) so tho still visually cute can be a bit vicious. DS still v cute but no longer a toddler and therefore often requires substantial bribes to do anything that doesn't involve PC or football :lol:

Also restrict him greatly as he prefers having most things beneath him.
