I've cooked dinner, done laundry etc with Boy perched on my hip.<br /><br />Obviously, him now being nearly 18, I don't need to do that.<br /><br />But being a parent used to these things, is definitely a transferable skill when carrying armfuls of files, coffee and needing to open a door.Roseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07469442580348062913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-55148275303576010822011-10-24T12:46:13.318+01:002011-10-24T12:46:13.318+01:00I'm not supposed to carry heavy weights becaus...I'm not supposed to carry heavy weights because of my hip, but a child doesn't count.

Sadly, I was not allowed to participate as I had a bad back at the time.<br /><br />"Bad back", on reflection, is a very silly phrase. Shall we opt for "Recalcitrant rear" instead?Sir Bruinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15795621095731354108noreply@blogger.com
