<p>[QUOTE="BoudiccaJones, post: 4367104, member: 5592"]I had this with my son at booties. I told and TOLD him to not point ... to not do sharp intakes of breath ... and to never ever do ( what he literally did <i>every</i> time) say "Mum is that a Sindy? Mum it's Sindy isn't it? Mum is that Sindy?" In the loudest voice ever. He knew to not do it so dunno why literally every time he did.</p><p>I was always giving him daggers and shut-upppp-boi vibes but still ... he continued. I always try to act dull (not too difficult tbh) and say stuff like *oh what a sweet old thing! Bit played with but that's part of the charm* ( and then my boy'd pipe up with " But Mum isn't it Sindy! whilst giving him serious shut up eye signals ) etc etc because if sellers get a whiff of The S word they think tis worth a fortune. And I cannot leave Sinders at a booty, it's beyond me though I have tried. I just can't. Only one I've ever been able to leave was a manky pushed in face minger from '87, I detest em but still find it hard to leave em behind if they are cheap. However this was not that hard to do as the seller wanted £15 as it was *old* ( old ‽ ‽ '87 was just the other day :O )[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
