Hot on the heels of Father Christmas (I grudgingly go along with him) and his Elves (cant quite bring myself to assist my children in believing in them!) comes the Tooth Fairy (feeling very dodgy about this night-visiting, money-giving piece of fiction) and now, to top it all, the B$%&*dy Easter Bunny. Aaaargh, Do all kids beleive in all of these magical, mythical beings?
Yes, I agree, it's the Easter Bunny that has sent me over the edge. My older two say I have to uphold the Easter Bunny or all other mythical creatures are in doubt for the little ones.... but I dont like him. We have also had queries about dummy fairy (no dummies here so she's unlikely to visit) and news from school that everyone has their own personal angel to watch over them. Too many magical beings for me to manage!!!

I do't ever remember believing in the easter bunny. Think it's a more recent import.


Agree that the tooth fairy is cool though.


I was working with a 15 year old lad recently, and he was talking about what Santa was going to bring him. He has a twin brother with a severe learning disability, so I guess the parents have kept it up for him, and so this guy also believes it by default. I was trying to explain to him that he might want to keep quiet about Santa, when chatting to people at school!

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
