For making ds1 go to Gaelic Football in the pouring rain.

Everyone else is out there, says I.

I don't care! says he.

Out you go, says I.

He's over there now. I can see him from my window. The rest of them are out in it as well.

I was talking to another mum while in my car and she said her ds didn't want to go either.

I think it's a safe bet none of them want to be there.

Yes, I saw the weather forcast, that's a nasty weather front coming over Ireland. Did you happen to see that London has a lovely high pressure over it keeping all that rain away to the north? [smug emoticon] It's been a gorgeous day today, I put a light coat on for the school run this afternoon, but it was so warm that I took it off and was just in a t-shirt.

envy

I haven't cut grass in 6 weeks and it is long! Was gone for 2 of them though.

I collected him and he proclaimed:

I'M DYING!

He was quite soaked in all fairness.

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]
For a shocked face, , type [shock]
For an angry face, , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face, , type [blush]
For a sad face, , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face, , type [envy]
For a sceptical face, , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
