Brilliant & oh so true. How is it that my husband didn't get the super-hearing that I developed (seemingly over night with the birth of number 1) where the children are concerned? He has just never heard them. It would drive me mad when with number 2 (a terrible night sleeper - entirely my own fault and another story completely) I'd be up & down like a yoyo all night, only to have lovely husband ping awake at 7a.m.ish saying "well that was a good night wasn't it?" Ggrrrrr (6)

That is soo true - 'cept for me a couple of additions:


- baby would regularly be on the floor if not 'trapped' by another pillow

- eldest daughter usually comes in too (with at least a couple of needle-sharp Barbies)

- I end up with my head jammed against the bedside table (if not on it)

- I get fed up and sleep in one of the girls' beds

- they then follow me there...


Dad sleeps in big bed ALL BY HIMSELF

I'm three to a single bed (particularly love the baby with legs on her head - why oh why is that so frequent?) :)

Have to admit that in our house the opposite is true - our youngest is 3 and sometimes wakes in the night for the toilet/drink/monster elimination and I never hear her :-$ So it's me waking up in the morning thinking we had a brilliant quiet night, and Mr Pickle with bags under his eyes. Oops.

      Fireworks

      By SophieA · Posted

      There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559

      I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By Sue · Posted

      Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?
