The lighter side

This is really great thread to read. Thank you ladies.

Aka sweet. Glad to see you're finding humour in this

Thanks for the flowers but I love the grins too. There is a lot of humour to be found if we allow it. At present DH has taken MiL out for and let's hope he remembers the way home

My brother went to see Mum on Thursday at 11.30am to find she was still in bed. He went and asked, rather crossly, why she was still in bed.

It turned out that she had been up until 5.15 am talking to the night staff about their and HER sex life. TMI

She obviously had a lot to contribute to the conversation

Eeeeekk!

All I can say is Good for the night staff! I hope it enlivened their shift!!

Love that Aka A lady with a taste for fine food.

Is it acceptable to sit an 88 year old on the naughty step?

NO IT IS NOT !! unless they have been really really norty.
You could be "ad up " for cruelty to oldies !!

She has! I've got four GC (2, 3, 4 & 7) here and she's been the naughtiest!

Anyway we're all off to IKEA to wreck havoc.

Nice to hear about that. Anyone hear about the great (seems to me) independant home in France called 'House Of BabaYaga' where among other things the residents care for each other and organise debates and care about ecology?

Wait till she's gone to bed and I'll tell you about our adventure in IKEA

Not heard of them Agnes

Being a wet and windy day and having all four GC plus MiL, I decided we'd all go to IKEA, as there's good parking, it's wheel chair friendly and kid friendly. Everything went OKish - if a bit chaotic, with me pushing chair, MiL clutching those big yellow bags they give you or the occasional child or both, me shepherding GC like a manic border collie and we even managed coffee, juices and cakes at the cafe.

But all went pear-shaped when we came to the travellator thingmy....

Oh dear, battery low sign just appeared, will have to charge up and continue tomorrow.
