      If it all goes feral, a shotgun might secure you a game of pool down your local.
      I'll make sure it's your local.

        That's not fair. Most of us have to work at writing something funny. You just post about your life and everyone laughs.

                      Given that I have 3 littluns and one luttlun on the way (Due 25th Dec) it made me think.

                      What if the Tottenham riots started up again? What if the occupy movement joins forces with the freeloaders? The EDL get involved?

                      What about the basics? Calpol, paracetamol, calprofen? Antihistamines?

                      Without going proper nutty, should I be stockpiling certain kiddie important supplies just in case the local supermarket shuts down after getting looted?

                      Just the thoughts that cross my mind as a young dad.

                      The panel thinks?
                      Could you let the kids develop an immune system?
