For some reason the schools in our village have two weeks at half term. Great for the kids, not so great for parents who have to work and juggle childcare. To add further pressure one half of the OAP childminding duo is in hospital having an operation.
The husband was in charge today. This morning as I was leaving for the office, the glorious sun was beating down and I suggested the husband bob to Tesco or Argos and get one of those cheap little paddling pools for the kids to mess around in whilst he tried to do some work. Off they went.
At lunchtime I sent a text asking if the kids were enjoying their paddling pool.
His reply ‘we won’t have to worry about swimming lessons’ just made me roll my eyes to the heavens.
This is what greeted me when I got home …
Man lust had taken over. Why buy a cheap little paddling pool when you can have a vast swimming pool?
Does anybody else have tales of man lust taking over?
