Fucking marvellous Dear children: you are old enough to stay up later than me, this also implies you are old enough to brush your teeth properly before bed. Just fucking do it, I'm getting sick of being told I'm a Bad Mother by our dentist for your failure to brush your fucking teeth properly. I know hygiene is bottom of your list of priorities, but budge this one up, OK?

Each desk at work has a perfectly good coaster on it, yet my work mates insist on carefully folding a sheet of kitchen roll and placing that on top of the coaster. Why? This is the only place I have ever seen this happen. I could understand it if there were no coasters, but there are! When I do the cleaning on a Saturday, I take great delight in putting them all in the bin.
