I cannot believe tomorrow is Steve's last show. Absolutely gutted. Clearly BBC2 bosses have lost their minds. It's a sad, sad day for radio 😔 #SteveWrightInTheAfternoon #crazydecision #BBCRadio2

Progress is great.

But it's so much more difficult to talk to your partner in code once your child learns to spell...

Does everybody pour double concentrate just like single concentrate? Or is it just me?

Why do I keep buying it??

All I'm doing is drinking really heavily flavoured orange...

**Article** Do you believe in boundaries when it comes to your children? Do you need some time to yourself or do you believe in sharing everything with your kids?

Me? I'm the mum who needs some space. Otherwise I might just go crazy...

Remember when you had one child and you were tired because you had one child?

Fast forward to four children later.

Now I'm tired.

Now I'm bloody exhausted 😴

My 4yo daughter just walked up and touched me on the cheek in what I thought was going to be a loving embrace.

Instead she said:

"Mum I don't like those red spots on your cheeks. You need to cover them up with some make-up".

That's me told...🙄

I wonder just how many times a day do I shout:

"Stop running on the stairs!" 🤔

Boy I'm tired...

Real ingenuity:

6yo daughter (who's already finished hers) turns to her 4yo sister and asks

"Can I borrow one of your crisps?"

You've got to hand it to her...

So now I can't browse the middle aisle of Lidl and Aldi because the government deems it non-essential buying??

Believe me buster it's very essential.

Right now under level 5 browsing the middle aisle of Aldi is my social life.

Why is it that when you're trying so hard not to make noise because the baby's asleep you will step on, drop and bang into everything you shouldn't??

**Article** When it comes to your relationship, who is best at accepting blame - you or your partner? It's never easy admitting you made a mistake is it??

My husband has a neat little trick for getting out of this..
