Happy Birthday, Babyfark! Maybe I could say that you've matured like a good cheese if you hadn't already eaten that cheese. More sweaty and mouldy than matured. Gorgonzola |

MrTiddlesI had to take my son to the hospital for a checkup. The appointment wasn’t til 15:50, and he’s usually out of school at 15:00, so that is plenty of time to get him home and changed. However… the school didn’t open the gate until 15:15. In the meantime, I’d been standing in the queue for forty-odd minutes, all the while with a mother behind me who wouldn’t let her screaming baby go to sleep. Once the gate was open, I located the boy, who had lost his jumper. He then stated that he was hungry. Obviously I didn’t have any food with me, since he has a big school dinner for lunch. So then I’m frog-marching him out of the school towards the car, him in tears, me repeating that I don’t have any food with me. By the time we get home, he has stopped crying. But he is now on a go-slow. GET OUT OF THE CAR! GET CHANGED! WE DON’T HAVE TIME FOR THIS! My partner helpfully asks why I didn’t take him straight up hospital… We get to Brighton, and I find a nice space to park the car. Needs logging with the car parking fiends, so I call the number on the post. “Enter your PIN” - I’ve never had to enter a PIN for this system. So go through the automated IVR to set one up. The thing then won’t recognise the code I’ve entered for the parking location. Three attempts later, and we’re in. It then tells me it’s parking my car, which, as avid followers of amipal (like and subscribe for more content) are aware, is no longer in my possession. Get the new reg registered, and as I’m telling it how many hours I want, the Voice tells me reg… which has an additional “m” on the end that I did not record. By this point I’m a sweaty-ball of man-stress, so I really don’t care - I’ll plead ignorance and the shoddiness of their system if anything comes through. Boy and I now have five minutes to yomp you the hill to the Royal Sussex hospital, and then traverse it’s labyrinthine interior to locate the Royal Alexander wing for his checkup. We made it on time. The checkup was fine. And he no longer has to take daily medication for his breathing. We have a nice walk back to the car, and a wonderfully smug zero-emission drive back home in nose to tail traffic. As I get in, my partner informs me that the oven door will no longer close. And that I part of the fridge has fallen out off.

Even I’m not reading all that.
Mainly because I don’t want to have to relive it again.

Morning.
I'm only just getting my dinner as we had a virtual meet the teacher thing.
Also - I had to share a train into Glasgow with Tennents quaffing Sevco fans.
I've not even taken the bins out yet - as Tenthen will possibly testify to - it's bin night!
Potato, lentil and veg curry from the freezer.

I recall that under similar circumstances some years ago I inadvertently taught a child to swear. It was a thoroughly ignominious occasion all round.

Like the child didn't already have a full vocabulary of horrible swear words.

Kid swearing chat:
I recently introduced faceless jnr to Trials Rising on the Switch. Watching a replay of one of his runs the other day he proudly proclaimed "that shit was poetry in motion"
I had to pull him up on it. Who the fuck says poetry in motion?
