    I think Mickey is going to fare better in the cattery than I will being around 3 children under 5 for 3 weeks.

    At least the woman who runs the cattery is a massive Cat Woman; she isn’t great with people but amazing with cats.

    I am not amazing with children, it’s very difficult to censor myself or not say something inappropriate (it’s a My Family Surname issue 🤦‍♀️). I guess I will just do my best to take an interest in what they want to talk about, though I’m sure they will be rather preoccupied with each other rather than the adults.

    So maybe I can sneak off for my durries, joints, and beer without too much fuss 😂

    Also, stupid question I could Google but I’m very lazy: I have a number of Sally Hansen insta dry nail polish, can I take that on the plane? Either carry on or the other thing where they store big bags (words espace me, I’m hungover, sorry)

      yes, you can take nail polish but not nail polish remover

      cargo hold

      and you will do fine with kids, just treat them like adults with special interests

      ok, a miss seagoon story

      when Miss Seagoon was 3.5 she went to her grandpa and step grandma’s house to stay for a weekend. Step grandma was a very prim and proper person. My parting words to Miss when her dad drove her over was , "don’t say any rude words like fuck. " I had friends over and they laughed when they heard the goodbye. We all swear a lot.

          It’s three kids once a year. I mostly do it because my mate is in town so I crash their family xmas and my removalists tongue sets off the swear jar comments. I grew up with looser parents who just swore around their kids.

            I read it as every time you swear 😂 my bad lol I was like “bruh, I’d need 10x $50s just to cover me getting up in the morning” 😂😂

            And yeah same, dad swears quite a bit and mum’s as bogan as they come so there was no hope for me 😂 many a detention spent picking up litter at lunch for saying “fuck” in primary school 😬

              They’re $5 a swear so I just pre-buy some credit. I still need to watch my language, it’s good practice. I’ve just been so shitfaced with my mate I forget that his more conservative family is at the table with us. They’re lovely people but they’ve never snorted drugs off another human.

      Excuse me if you’ve already mentioned this somewhere, but where are you off to?

      If you’re flying domestic, you should be able to bring most things except weapons?
