I watched a couple minutes on U-toob and found the voices of most of the cartoon characters to be quite annoying.

Peppa Pig makes me really angry. I was just the same with Button Moon, back in the 80's. I allowed my boys to watch as I don't believe in banning things for kids. It just makes things more desirable and teaches them to be devious. I made it clear that it was fine to watch, if they must, but the sound must NEVER be loud enough for me to hear while I'm cooking everyone's tea. Not if they wanted to survive long enough to see the whole programme or eat anything afterwards :devil:

If I had midget humans around the place, the rule for certain things would be they could only listen to them using headphones.

I don't think headphones had been invented back then :) Good idea though.

Thanks Sarah, they live and work in Dubai. She will have the baby here in UK then in time go back to Dubai. So obviously we will make the most of it whilst they are here........AND, it gives us a great excuse to go visit Dubai more often. In fact they arrive on 14th May for 10 day's to get the paperwork sorted.👶

4) Silly bicycle ride next weekend so hopefully out to play on motorised two wheels on the next Bank Holiday .

Ansarallah is promising attacks on the UAE if attacks on civilians in Yemen by the Saudi mercenary forces continue. 😮
