Yep, think she has!! This parenting malarky sounds like too much hassle. Think I will leave it for a few years yet!! Or just adopt an 18 year old so that they've been through the stroppy years and can buy me a pint!!! Talking of pints.........I can hear the pub calling This is getting terrible! It's only quarter to four on a Friday and already I'm having alcohol cravings! ;D

more stupid things parents, especially you mum, said:
while you are running: "you won't get there any faster!" - err... yes i will!!
"if you break your leg doing that don't come running to me"
"if the wind changes your face will stay like that!" really... and precisely how many people has that happened to?
"Watch that plate its hot"
Always wear something in bed in case the firemen have to get you out. and, always wear clean pants in case you get knocked down!
"If you stop asking me, I might say yes.."
"Eat it, it'll put hairs on your chest".
"If you don't straighten up, I'm going to knock you into the middle of next week!"
wipe that look off of your face or I'll do it for you!
'this [TCP] will only sting a little bit' - LIAR!!!!
"there there, mummy will kiss it better" - jesus woman i've just lost half the skin from my kneecap and you think kissing it will stop the gravel from causing me severe bloodloss and searing pain!!!
