I am glad to hear things are better than they used to be. Before this law, in a cafe, I was once asked to breastfeed in the toilets as someone had complained.
Said I would, as soon as the complainer ate their lunch in the loos. Wasn't bothered in there after that!

This spoon is the Sports Direct Mug of the late 80s/Early 90's in that everyone had one, and no-one knows where from.

Erm, oh. Hello again. This isn't at all awkward
To be fair, he was pissed, and didn't explain himself well.

I'm not convinced they aren't evil - just not in the way we were taught.

He is at the age where he is mostly made of limbs of indeterminate length.
Added to the overactive oaf gene we have in our family it makes for a heady concoction of physical chaos. Both frustrating and hilarious in equal measure

I think it's the lack of willingness to ask for help with it too. We think we should be able to do it because we have been quite self resilient generally, but nothing in our childhoods prepared us for this. It doesn't follow the rules we learnt for assessing print media.

I think there's also an argument for having had an analogue upbringing but dealing with digital and social media. Many of our generation don't want to admit they need help with online interpretation and take things at face value.
But yeah, probably mostly lead poisoning.

He has just come to me on his way to bed, given me a big hug and said "I love you Auntie Petra" and my heart completely melted.

Playing UNO with him today. He has so many of his dad's mannerisms.
It took me right back 30 years to playing cards with my brother.
The word bittersweet has never felt so apt.

I have just spent quite a bit of time trying to explain that computers were not necessarily connected to the internet when I was his age.
He wanted to see if the little games his dad wrote for the Dragon 32 (I think) were in the app store.

This is all the more poignant when you know that it was his dad - my little brother who died last year - that taught me how to read a simple program when we were teenagers.
Now I get to pass that on to his son.

I have just confounded him by finding the error in his scratch coding.

I like to be the auntie who does and knows the unexpected
