There's nothing quite like eating out with a ten year old, a nine year old and a six year old. Here we see Max, elongating his teeth with two straws. Hilarious. If you are 10, 9 or 6. And bearable if you are 41. But not hilarious.
We met Chris for dinner tonight, after I took the kids to see Journey 2. I thought it was okay on the whole. Not sure the whole 3D thing isn't over-rated mind you. The most interesting thing happened when we arrived. Long story, but we were late and the cinema was mobbed. I found the boys two aisle seats across from each other and then went off to find some 3D glasses and try to find two seats together for me and the Madster. When I got back with the glasses I saw that in Dominic's row there was a woman next to Dominic, but a space next to her and then a guy with a space on the other side of him too. So I asked them - very nicely - if they could both budge along so I could sit with the kids. Well they did so, but not happily. The guy was particularly unchuffed about it and groused that I should have turned up in time if I wanted to get seats altogether. Maybe he had a point. But maybe when they saw me with 3 kids at a kids' movie they should have offered to move!
Anyway, I muttered something about not realising if you came early you could expect three seats for the price of one and sat back and watched the movie. The kicker came on the way out. Those two grumps were there TOGETHER!! And upset because I made them SIT NEXT TO EACH OTHER. Can you believe it??
