I loved my Golliwog. They are for kids for goodness sake. Is it racist for a dark skinned kid to own a pale skinned doll with blonde hair and blue eyes ? Where does it stop. As for Coon, why didn’t they just make it Cheez instead of Cheer. The world has gone mad 0 😤

Just get some pics of the dog and put them on. Make an old lady happy. It doesn't matter. Say it was remiss of you to forget, problem solved, move on. As for the other members of your family, that's their problem. You're doing this for your Mum, not them.

Well done ! 👏 Very clever 😀

Come on guys ! If you don't think it's funny, that's fine. No need for name calling. We're all adults here, I hope 🤞

OMG 😲

Aw, bless 💖

Aw that was such a lovely thing to do I'm glad it was appreciated , bless 🙏

Yes I learnt that lesson too ! So rather than give them money, I thought next time I'll buy a bottle of water and give them something to eat. More fool me I went and bought a can of coke and a burger for the elderly man begging outside MacDonalds. He said that he only drank no sugar, soft drink...

Sorry, I'm calling bullshit on that !

Unbelievable ! Great example to her teenage kids as well, not offering up their seats. Fine the bludgers

Just nod and smile folks. You've raised your own kids and they must've thought you did an ok job or they wouldn't be asking you to look after the grandies. I think most new parents these days do the same. I can never remember doing it when I asked my parents, but it does happen to me, so nod...

Yes I wondered about that 🤔 as I don’t think you're allowed to drive with thongs 🤷‍♀️

I remember having a toy switch board I thought it was just fantastic and wanted to be a switchboard operator. By the time I grew up they were no longer used.

I loved them. You can still see them on night time and early morning TV. So weird to watch and see how far we've come with technology.

Household Crystals I've always liked crystal jewellery. I was given a Swarovski Swan when I was 16yrs old and have been collecting different bits and pieces for the past 50yrs. Only small ones, nothing big and expensive. I also have all of my Mum's glassware. I hope to share it between my kids...

Rain 72 You are so right. This has happened to my husband and myself. I quite often wonder how people who are older and less up to date with technology, manage this minefield. We have half an idea of what we're doing but it's a bloody nightmare 🤔

Sometimes a different person talking to the child helps. Offering a lolly, reading a book or even your phone, if it comes to it, might be worth it for a bit of peace and quiet 🤷‍♀️ Anything is worth a try.

Hi Jenni, so did I ! Almost 50yrs ago now. How time flies. I remember it like it was yesterday.

Golliwogs I loved my Golliwog as a kid. I was always given bright colourful clothes that had been knitted for him by neighbours and relatives. I wanted my grand kids to have one each but they're just not that easy to come by. You used to be able to get Golliwog earings and necklaces but they...
