Oh but think of the fun you would be missing out on, the face when he opened it would be a picture! Am nominated as Mother of the Year (quite rightly so in my opinion! LOL) :) x

Now you could well be right there, we only have their word that tablets contain what they say they do! Could wrap up a piece of haddock to go with it! :)

Scrobbs, I can't think why he'd be disappointed, especially if he'd asked you to get him a tablet. You've done exactly that, and got him a tablet. I do hope he has a sense of humour! What am I saying, he'd need to have a sense of humour LOL, you're his mother LOL :) Merry Christmas Scrobbs :) x

Well I thought a powerful lesson in articulating properly needed administering LOL. It's only retaliation anyway as last year I said I have everything I needed. I got a box with nothing in it, labelled 'Fresh Air' - oh how we larfed!!!! Ha ha ha! Back at ya with the merries. :) x

I'm just impressed you woke up and replied without nodding off at the keyboard LOL. Singing you a lullaby to aid the snoozies, not that you need it of course :) x

Crikey Scrobby, you have really pushed the boat out there. No expense spared. I am sure he will love the colour though. And so small, how do they do it?

Oh I've got a bottle of Baileys handy and thought a mini bottle of JD would help sweeten the tablet for the young male member of the household LOL :) xx

Hi Scrobbity. I somehow don't think that was the tablet he wanted. It's a good idea for my sons. I think I will give them a Paracetamol and when they ask what it's for I will tell them their generous Mother thought they would like a tablet for Christmas. If I time it right it could be quite funny. Although they will probably think I've gone mad. Oh no! They already think that. Take care and have a lovely Christmas. X

Go for it!!! When life seems to be pretty grim and relentless, a touch of humour can be the only bright spark in your day. A laugh a day keeps the doctor away - well that's the theory anyway. You take the very best of care; hope hubby turns the corner and that Christmas will be calm and lovely. :) xx
