    My son would say 'Short @rsed cockeny get' when he heard the name Dennis Wise. He still does. I also used to pick him up and gently shake him and he would say 'woodward woodward woodward woodward' in recognition of that famous nanny Louise Woodward. I don't do that one anymore as he is 10 and too heavy.

    Mate of mine tried to get his son to say "More beer, bigger women". One of my brothers is making a concerted effort to get the other brothers' kid to say "Daddy is a twat".

    I can't remeber many of his speaking milestones as he hasn't shut up since he learnt how to speak. I do remeber that he counted to 10 when he was 10 months old.

    Well I say counted

    it went

    Me: 1
    James : 2
    Me: 3
    James : 4
    Me: 5
    James : 6
    Me: 7
    James : 8
    Me: 9
    James : 10

    He also said that he wanted twenty twelve Lychees from Tesco when he was 2. When I told him that wasn't a number he said that it was, it was 32.

    When he was 3 they tested him at nursrey and he stopped counting when he got bored at 102. When the teacher asked him what was next he said 103 but in a voice to say 'are you stupid'

    As my wife was driving on the motorway the other day, someone signalled to let her out but didn't actually move, and she nearly hit him.

    Cue voice from the back:

    DD1: Mummy, what's a wan**r?
