    I want them to look after the kids not do any programming!

    Boom boom. It's the way I tell 'em. Daddle a daddle a dah!

    Most of them just use to want a passport. Also if they are that fanciable your wife won't let them in the house.
    Child: Mummy, does the au pair have a removable bottom?
    Mummy: No, dear. Why?
    Child: Because I heard daddy say he's like to screw the arse off her.

    The cost of nursery is ridiculous. For two days per week for the kiddy winkies we pay £800 per month!!!!

    Surely you can get a hot live-in Swedish nanny for that.
