Grandchildren. My daughter, bless her, is and has always been very strict with 2 children's intake. However........when they are in my house, twice a week, I tell them they can have anything they like, as long as they eat it and eat all their tea. My daughter is aware of this so I don't feel I am going behind her back. It's usually a bag of crisps, unless they have already had one and a packet of sweets. That's what Grandmas are for isn't it?
The worst thing I ever did was when youngest grandchild was about a year old I gave him a choc-chip cookie. Daugher came back, told her he loved it and she went into panic mode because it contained nuts. Don't remember all these things when mine were young.
Don't worry, Joe, neither has anyone else now! It started as a serious thread and degenerated (?) into chat and humour, thus performing a healing function.
Joslow, there is a place for old farts that know about gardening. Unfortunately, it's the same type of old fart that goes bright red and hides behind his paper when anything comes on the telly about ladies' plumbing or gardens (even the ones that have clematis in).
JTG, you will find out when you're older, the thread reminds me of when I go out for a meal with a group of my girl friends, none of us gets out much, and we start cackling like a right coven. I think the waiters pay the waitress to do our table, it's a lovely italian restaurant, complete with lovely Italian boys doing the waiting!
Thats why a few of the gardeners have jumped ship, more chat threads than enough. They mostly do go off topic, that seems to be what the majority want though.
Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

You should find it funny GG. Humour is more precious than anything else. We need a good laugh.
In the sticks near Peterborough
I'm having a giggle too.

I think I may be a bit naive, but I haven't a clue what this thread's really about!

Was about to say it evolved from serious thread and turned into a rather naughty one. Not that I had any input in that.
Chastity is my middle name.

Hehe Joe...I started reading it and it explained alot so i jumped to the end and saw that it was now about girly stuff
I quite like reading some of the threads as they start as one thing and end up something totally different lol. All part of the adventure hehe.
I have to say though that my attention was lost when I read about whiskers and veet
