Kids say such precious things.
9y old: Dad, when you die I won't bury you in the ground. I'll leave you in the back garden to see what it's like when the ants eat you.

I'm so irked when start-up founders add up their collective age on their pitch-deck and claim they have "120 years experience".

I'm old and out-of-touch enough to always be surprised that I can use the toilets at Paddington without needing 20p for a turnstile

It's so special taking the kids around places you remember as a child. Crumbs Cafe in Morgans Arcade was Mum's go-to when we were children #Cardiff

Our kids were a bit slow on the uptake of female pronouns because we are a household of he/hims. Extra confused by Welsh language for she:hi being pronounced "he".
The other day 4 felt he'd finally got the hang of it and told me:
'Dad, if someone is a woman you call him "she"'
So close 🤣

Re-read His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman in 2024. This is the quote that stuck with me all year and I'll be remembering it in 2025
"-good and evil are names for what people do, not for what they are."
"-good and evil are names for what people do, not for what they are."

Say what you will about Aldi. Supermarkets are horrible with young kids and it makes it a lot more bearable when there is no in-store radio playing

Apparently 4-y-old sees us as a smiley household.
All the proof I need that if you love eachother, then you're a family ❤️

Reminded that last year the Woolworths signage was briefly exposed in Canton. A place my nan used to take me to browse pencil cases #Cardiff @ilovesthediff.bsky.social

Watched 4 Weddings & a Funeral for the first time in decades!
Forgotten it was the first time I'd seen two men in love (alway on the condition that it ended in tragedy 🤦)
Also seeing how completely white the cast was with hindsight.
Overall, still charming.
