My 9 year old nephew at teatime yesterday: "The reason WW2 started was because Hitler wanted revenge because his balls were blown off."
My 9 year old nephew at teatime yesterday: "The reason WW2 started was because Hitler wanted revenge because his balls were blown off."
that be a like on the daughter conversation rather than the no electricity issues."Hitler only has one ball" Well that's how I remember the song.
Christmas day, No electricity due to the storm for the last six hours. Thankfully we have open fires and the oven/hob is gas powered.
Daughter (10 year old), walks into my office with her new road bike. "Can we go for a ride?"
Me: Have you seen the weather? It's 1pm and trees are getting knocked down .
D: Yep, it'll help push us along.
Me: And when we have to turn around and come home?
D: Umm, we can call mummy to come and pick us up.
me: OK, Tell her your plan then.
Suffice to say we didn't go for a ride. She got a spin on the turbo trainer.
Ha ha - she sounds like my ex! I used to ask her what type of chocolate she wanted and sometimes she would say "Oh, anything - I'm not fussy". I'd arrive back from the shops with a Mars Bar/Kit Kat/Crunchie/(whatever) and she would stare at it with a disappointed look on her face and say "Er, except ... I don't like them!"Christmas Eve:
Me: There's a pink ball that's dropped off the tree where do you want me to put it back?
Mrs Colly: Anywhere will be OK
Me: At the side?
Mrs Colly: Anywhere.
Me: What about the front?
Mrs Colly: Anywhere?
Me: Top or bottom?
Mrs Colly: Anywhere.
Pink ball is stuck back on tree.
Mrs Colly: No not there.
I love her. I really do.

I went over to visit my cousins last night. The children told me about coming off their bikes and I told them about my crash:
H: So was it like this? (mimes cycling along and stopping suddenly).
Me: Yes, a bit like that only the front wheel skidded and I fell off.
H: Like this? (mimes falling off).
L: Was that when all your hair came off?
I understand congratulations is in order as it is your birthday. ?And another snippet of conversation from today
my OH: "your hair's gone curly"
me: thinking yuck - that's the sweat doing that yet again...
my H: "in fact you have a double helix in there!"
Me: thinking - oh I should have never married a mathematician/physicist!
