welshbairn Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 We've been away in Aviemore for a few days with some friends, with me driving up with the Mrs, her pal and her 6 year old lass. The wee lass was mostly playing on the iPad in the back, occasionally moaning about the long drive, when she suddenly blurted out "mummy, would you rather go skydiving without a parachute or sleep with a farmer?" Kids' minds work in hilarious ways. She was reading the Apples and Pears thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a very long thread. Was just taking liberties as it’s in a similar vein. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chomp my root Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Was at the missus allotment doing the heavy stuff for her while she was fannying around and she got herself confused putting the onions in 8 inches apart. It was only apparent when she figured out that she'd gone wrong at 67 inches. I still had to do the 8, 16, 24..... I promise she's academic, although I'm starting to doubt her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Missus filling in a passport form. Names changed to protect the innocent.. "What is Anna's (our daughter)town of birth?". Yes, she's being serious so I tell her it's Kirkcaldy (poor kid) and have to spell it for her (understandable). It's probably fair enough as her mind would have been too preoccupied en-route to the hospital to notice what town it was. "How do you spell your middle name" is the next question. It's our 15th anniversary soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting having a discussion about countries and she was adamant that turkey was close to africa. So we get the bairns atlas out to show her it’s closer to the middle east. Then she sees egypt on the map, and says “egypts not in africa” this is despite having a map infront on her, it written in black and white and having being published in all the atlases ever, Yet she wasn’t having it. I see your point, but Turkey is fairly close to Africa. I wouldn't fancy swimming it but it's only about 300 miles across the Mediterranean Sea from the coast of northern Africa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to a mistake at the passport office, my birth certificate and passport have different spellings for my middle name. Should probably get that fixed when I renew in the next year or so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
