Trust me, if ever you needed a good reason to have children - this has to be at least one of them!!

You're right Wayne, this did bring a smile to my face. I did expect the little so and so to be sick at the end of it though

Well, of course - Great minds indeed (or is it just the product of a pessimistic mind )

Pessimism, or experience...

Neither, actually.
I'm honestly not pessimistic and don't have any children of my own (only 2 wondeful step children that I "inherited" aged 11 and 13)
but I do have loads of nephews and neices...

Nice one Hey Wayne. But as I see it, children are not a curse on your life. They are a blessing. No, they are not easy, but they do bring their own love with them - love beyond bounds and a true blessing.

Lady HW and I are at the stage of talking about thinking about having chillun. Lady HW has just got off the phone with her father who's parting words were (regarding proposed development of Centre Parcs just up the road), "perfect for the grand children" to which lady HW replied "you'd better speak to your son" and old father-in-law HW replied "we live in hope"

No pressure then!

The Laughing Policeman was OK, but the Jolly Jack Tar machines at the seaside were much better (IMHO).

Awww, bless...
From my experience, I'm guessing that he didn't puke at the end, he screamed his head off because Daddy stopped making the funny noise, and tried to make him eat his dinner...

I used to find the ones at Blackpool a bit scary (oops sorry Scarey/Scared55!) but then I never liked clowns either!
I thought the little tyke was going to bring his rusks up too, what a strange grown up laugh for a baby!

Agreed - absolutely brilliant.

No doubt someone will explain to us why it isn't at all funny.
