Just looking at an old post that I am yet to finishing replying to comments on and I realised that it began 'Intellectually I am all over the Republican side of things …'

Americans, this does not mean what you think it means!

There are no small children near me -- HOW DO PARENTS DO IT? HOW???!!!

Hard, isn't it?! Especially for mummies.

Every time I spend time with small kids, I recall why I have none. If you could get them from the shop around about 6 or 8, I might be OK, but the sudden gales of tears over nothing for a 1 and 5 year old! And I swear that I was not like that as a child, so I cannot relate at all (I actually wasn't, Mum tells me that I was like a miniature adult -- I suppose someone in our family had to be!)

You and Treacle and all the other mums I know have my endless admiration. And I have to confess, I totally understand parents who reach for the Phenergan or a spot of whisky in the bottle!

My children must be the weird ones because Phenergan and alcohol wire them up, not calm them down. Dammit!

Clearly, give up on the bairns and you take them in hopes of unconsciousness ;-)
