Got home from Mexico at half 6ish this morning and in a fit of stupidity I'm trying to stay awake all day (which will mean I've been up something like............30 odd hours) so I don't fall asleep today and end up awake all night.
Excellent holiday with the missus, my brother and the sister in law.
It was at a "alternative lifestyle" shall we say resort we've been to before which we dig (not because we're into any of that stuff) but because there's no kids there -listening to a brat and his arsehole parents threatening to smack him for being a brat on the bus back to the airport certainly makes you feel a lot better about spending your holiday with a bunch of perverts.
It ranges from the pretty tame to the kind of stuff you'd see on a really drunk and rough 18-30s in the resort itself but we went out on a cruise excursion run by an ex employee of the hotel and let me tell you chaps - seeing a bird you've spent the afternoon talking to about her kids and working life being spit roasted in international waters whilst her husband cheers and high fives the protagonists is quite an eye opener

or it didn't happen!
As a parent, I don't have a problem with kids in general. I do have a problem with brats and arsehole parents however so I can understand your point of view.
I'd like to think we've brought our son up to be well behaved, respectful and considerate of others.
as much as I agree, you must know that no matter how 'brattish' a small child can be for others, imagine what the parents go through every single day
anyway, my daughter is 3 and even though well-behaved, she definitely has her moods when no matter how much effort, you can't do anything about it
I agree, little kids are going to have tantrums, and I have every sympathy as I've been there. At that point, if we went places we made sure they were family places where this would be understood. My issue is more with the spoilt brats at 6-8 upwards who don't have even basic please and thank you manners and whine/moan about what they want and that they're bored at top volume constantly.
By that age my son was quite capable of entertaining himself without bothering anyone and was polite to anyone he had interaction with.
Oh yeah happy Saturday. Deciding I'd try and stay up all day yesterday to try and go to bed at a normal time I crashed out about 7 or 8, woke up at 3 in the morning and have been up ever since
All right, lads?
Haven't been posting on here as I've been in the UK (some irony there I'm sure). I just read back and there wasn't a single post asking where I was. Bastids.
Got back to Taipei at midnight on Saturday night. Yesterday (Sunday) was 37 degrees Celsius, not to mention the ridiculously high humidity. I'm not sure exactly what that was, but I'm guessing somewhere around 90 gazillion percent.
I blame that Newton fellow. Should have just scoffed the apple and kept his gob shut...How come even when you're extremely careful, you always end up covered in paint and always spill some on the carpet?
