We've got the builders in, so whatever we do will be covered in a fine layer of dust...
I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

Well just make sure it's a CD and steer clear of anything computer based. A three year old is not going to understand the type of 'service unavailable' messages you publish on here.Originally posted by administrator View PostI make sure I never volunteer unless they are absolutely desperate

I will be taking my collection of old modem dial out noises and C64 game theme tunes. If the kids don't appreciate the beauty of the music from Last Ninja 2 they won't get any sweets.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostWell just make sure it's a CD and steer clear of anything computer based.

It's not the kids you need to worry about it's the parents. These days every kid is a 'winner'. Needs to be enough layers with a sweet between each layer for every kid.Originally posted by administrator View Post
Last time some kids didn't get a sweet and a couple of parents had a go at me.
Enjoy.
