My Dad
by Crumpet injust a wee update on my current tentative drawing out of my family.
i sent a letter, which not coincidentally was timed to arrive on fathers day weekend just gone.
its the first letter i've sent in 8 years to my family and whilst i was careful to avoid any mention of religion i did talk about how happy i was generally and mentioned how nice it is that i see so much of my inlaws who despite living 800 miles away make regular visit to us at least 3 or 4 times a year.

of the mouth of babes
by Crumpet ini don;t know what made me think of this as its a memory i haven;t retrieved in 17 years at least but it made me chuckle and it was a favourite story of my parents!.
when i was 6 and my little sister was 3 we were at a thursday night meeting, when she began to whispher to my mum " i want a smack".
my mother thought she had misheard and looked away but no lil sis said it a bit louder tugging at her arm, "mummy i want a smack.

The Seven Deadly Sins
by Crumpet ini listened to this on the radio this morning as i scampered around trying to get ready for work and i thought it was excellent so i wanted to share it.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/programmes/thought/documents/t20050620.shtml.
"today is the start of social science week and to mark it the economic and social research council has published a report which links all kinds of current social ills to pride, anger, lust, avarice, gluttony, envy and sloth - in other words, the seven deadly sins.
the report finds the sin of pride in the persistence of sectarian prejudice in northern ireland, it sees anger in uncontrollable tantrums in children and road rage in adults, lust in the ever-rising number of people who think its ok to have more than one sexual partner, avarice in the mounting levels of executive pay, gluttony in binge drinking and also in the steady overconsumption of alcohol by the middle-aged, envy in spiralling personal debt and lastly, sloth, the apathy reflected in spectacularly low turn-outs at the last two general elections.

Seven Year Itch!
by Crumpet inwell today is my 7th aniversary with my boyfriend.. we met in a nightclub and are still together!
the moral being you can find succulent meat in a "meat market", as long as you, maybe, have no morals!.
so when i woke up this morning, sun streaming through the windows, daughter padding about quietly (children can never be quiet - or maybe our ears just go to high alert when kids are in the house) downstairs, i began scratching at myself madly until my boyfriend woke up.
