Little'un can walk, but until 2 years ago, we often couldn't take him anywhere safely without his buggy. It was classed as a wheelchair but physically, it's a buggy on steroids.

Ye, i can't remember the pushchairs proper name, I've pushed them before, they are quite heavy. A child i worked with a few years back had one, i thought they were a nightmare to push.

I hope you didn't take offense, if so i do apologize.

MaclaReN major.

Was a killer to push up hills and up and down kerbs with a 4 stone child leaning over the side to watch the wheels. We got through 3 of them, over the years. More of a killer to wrestle with said child to stop him from hurling himself in front of a van because he's remembered that he didn't touch a particular gate 100 yards back or scraping him off the floor because today's the day the surgery is closed so he can't run in, sit down and runbout, today.

Our life is too bonkers to be offended by honest observations

Yes!, its a good name for them.

Oh dear, i can imagine that, i also hate when people stare and shake their heads. 

Seen many people do that!

Usually pure ignorance. One couldn't talk at all until recently, the other is selectively mute. Explaining that he can't talk to strangers didn't stop a silly woman from going on and on at big'un before Christmas, mind, then going on at me about what a shame it was (told her quite plsinly that I don't regard our lives as a tragedy) and then she went on about how she brought a random autistic child out of their shell for the first time ever in asdas(sic).... I didn't ask her for a laying on of hands.

Some chavs in Sunderland kept giving me grief for photographing 5334 on the 35, the driver saw what happened so he came to see if I was ok. Once the bus left they started again saying I have "No life" and I'm a "retard." Then I went to find either someone who worked for Nexus or another bus driver, who kindly let me sit on 6099, until they'd buggered off. He then asked me if I wanted a bus home and I told him I wanted the 56 so he let me stay on.
My other annoyance is my mam's phone messed up my shot of 4955 on the 20A, so I tried a rear shot, but the rear blind wasn't working.

Should of farted on them.

To be honest mate, I was crapping myself, I honestly thought I was going to get stabbed.

Should have given them a gravely, deathly stare!

They're out in force today. Wonder if it's the same bunch who were hanging around Haymarket, earlier.

I'm never letting you within a mile of my phone, mind. I think I need to start tracking your whereabouts so I don't have to worry about you jinxing my phone.

I've had my phone on charge since 6 p.m. Last night, and the battery life's gone from 12% to 0%!

I would suggest that either your charger or your battery ain't working properly. Time to invest in something new methinks.

Decides to lash down after i leave the house....... -.-

If this is your new one. It needs to go back.

Just stay away from mine!

It's an issue with the charger, not the phone.

Sounds like the issue which I had with my charger which somehow reversed the flow and decided to discharge the phone into the mains.

In a rush to the bus stop but have to walk at 5mph because of frost and black ice....

That's good! The average walking speed is only 3mph

Reading the news and woke up to The news of David Bowie passing away I loved this musician one of his songs would be performed by Astonaut Chris Hadfield who at the time was onboard ISS with Romanenko, Marshburn, Vinogradov, Misurkin and Cassidy

Ashes to ashes is being played on 6 music, at the moment.

I think I need to go and sob into some baking. Banana & snot muffins, I think.

I'm not even one to get mawkish about celebrity stuff, but Bowie was one of those people, like SirPTerry, who left the world a little bit different from how he found it, in a good way.

I like how he could seemingly change with the times, he was as relevant now as he was in the 60's and 70's...Big Loss

Was just played on Star Radio as well.

Rather disappointing to see only one music channel on Sky seemingly playing Bowie at this moment (MTV CLASSIC) with the rest all playing the usual chart stuff with one dedicating a whole day to Rihanna today, same channel dedicated yesterday to Taylor Swift.

Most of the TV music channels just seem to be pre-recorded stuff. The only one I ever bother with on Freesat is Vintage TV and that's only because it does a good job of mesmerising Littl'un when he's having one of his sleepless nights, without being too offensively awful (though the amount of big hair in their typical playlist makes mine come out in sympathy)

I put some blueberries in my banana muffins to disguise the green blobs

That my school are more bothered about the girls having short skirts/tight trousers than their education it very stupid in my idea.

The time on my phone. It's reset it's self and is now an hour ahead of the correct time, but everytime I try to change it my phone goes t**s up!
