How to make a bicycle sound like a motorbike?

Do you know how to make a bicycle sound like a motorbike?

All you need is a playing card and a clothes peg.

I did not have one so I sacrificed my plastic notebook cover instead.


Never mind it was almost time for a new one anyway :).

It brings back so many childhood memories. My dad used to do the same thing with the sides of a camembert box (the wooden ones). They make twice as much noise!

 Sorry dear neighbours :)!

Baby shower gift for the dad-to-be

-

A few weeks ago, I organised a baby shower for my sister-in-law. She is due at the beginning of December. I am going to be the Godmother and I am really chuffed about it. Because all the family was gathered together for the weekend to attend the baby shower, I thought I could organise something for the dad-to-be too (not a baby shower as such, but a few games and a gift). Around dinner time, we played three games: - Blindfolded baby changing game - Pin the dummy in the baby's mouth game - Name that poop game Blindfolded baby changing game The aim of the game is for the dad-to-be to dress a doll. The trick is that he must be blindfolded. It was amusing to watch. Tip: If the parents-to-be are having a baby boy, spray dad's face with water when he is putting the nappy on (use a child's water pistol). He will not expect it! Someone should prepare him for it :). Pin the dummy in the baby's mouth game I don't think that it really needs explainin...

What is the dumbest (yet funniest) thing you have ever done?

-
You will never guess what I did today! I drove to the local Tesco during lunchtime (because it was raining), park my car, get my sandwich (nothing exciting - ham and cheese) and walk back to work. A couple of hours later, I look out the window. I cannot find my car. Where is my car? Did I park it somewhere else today? I go to the (company) car park. The car is not there. Where is my car? Did I leave the keys on the contact and someone stole it? I run back to my desk, check for the keys in my handbag. I find the keys. WHERE THE HELL IS MY CAR??? By then I am completely panicked and I am shaking. I finally remember that I drove to Tesco... I take my car keys, storm out of the office (without telling anyone) and run as fast as I can to Tesco. On my way to Tesco I get a few weird looks from passers-by. What? Have they never seen a woman sprinting in stilettos? Apparently not :). My guess is that I may not have been very gracious. Sorry people I was i...

Day 1 with our au pair: Overwhelming day to say the least

-
Yesterday was our first day with our au pair Anna. We went to France to visit family and also to pick her up this weekend. She happens to live in the same town as my mum's family (it is not a coincidence though, she was introduced to me by a relative). I mentioned it in a previous post. Here is the link if you wish to catch up:  https://theblogofafulltimeworkingmum.blogspot.co.uk/2016/07/choosing-au-pair-definitely-not-easy.html?m=1 The trip home lasted about 6 hours, which was quite challenging. Not because she is a difficult person (on the contrary she is really lovely). It is just that I cannot really do small talks and find it hard to converse with new people (particularly when it is at length). But I think we did well :). Once at home, I showed her around the house. I also showed her where the useful things were (cockery, cutlery, coffee/tea, toilet paper, etc...) and gave her the rest of the day to settle down and unpack. One thing I made sure of (as soon as she a...
