The Fan Who Found Me
That time the spawnlings abandoned me for NERF, leaving me open and vulnerable for a fan who recognised me!!
Indoor Play Centre Hell
I have been bribed into Indoor Play Centre Hell. Nefarious was invited to a classmate’s birthday party at an indoor play centre: multi-level playground with soft-fall mats, trampolines, rock climbing walls… A kid’s dream! And a parent’s nightmare!! So noisy! So crowded!! I am down with the Mother of All […]
Nintendo Saved My Road Trip

My Spawnlings Drive Me Crazy
There comes a time in every parents’ life when they look at their precious little spawnlings and say to themselves, “Good Gods in Hades. What have I created?”
