morning children get-up
Having children is fab. They keep me young and make me get up in the morning.
children nice two
So, I kind of rather was hoping that people thought it would have a nice mixture of different topics and it also takes in the fact that I've had two children recently.
children thinking rude
No one I know is actually so rude as to tell me I've become duller since having children. But I'm sure they think it.
children feelings taught
My mum taught me to knit when I was a child, and I turn to it, for some weird reason, when I'm feeling depressed.
children two want
Again, with two small children it's incredibly hard to commit yourself to anything because you're just getting interested in it and someone comes along and goes I want Thomas The Tank Engine on, and screams the place down until you put it on.
children long parent
I wasn't one of those hideous children who make their parents sit through hour-long performances when you're seven. I didn't do anything like that thankfully.
children people effort
I made a supreme effort not to do that thing that parents do, which is to bore people without children to death by going on and on about how funny their children are, so there's none of that hopefully.
children couple nice
If you want to get a pet for your child, I suggest a chicken so that when they get bored of it after a couple of days at least you can have a nice roast dinner.
children smell house
When you have children, your house smells very unpleasant all the time.
children shopping two
With two small children, I haven't had a wash since 2001 so the chance to go shopping is way down the list. It is something I do intend to get.
animals eat supposed
If we aren't supposed to eat animals, then why are they made out of meat?
billy bit british-comedian fan perfect supreme
I've always been a bit of a Billy Connolly fan I have to say, because he is the supreme protagonist stand-up if you like. He's a perfect stand-up.
dvds doctors smoking
An overweight guy went to the doctor who advised him to try a keep fit DVD. But the guy said he couldn't be bothered. “Well” suggested the doctor, “try something that leaves you a little short of breath.” So the buy took up smoking.
artist names hip-hop
I am a hip-hop artist, as you probably know. My hip-hop name is Big Smalls.
