Banning snacks on public transport! Thing one especially thinks this is a bizarre idea. He and his bro are no obese so why penalise them? I do like the sound of further restricting the advertising of junk food and takeaways, they sneak off to Mcdonalds with grandpa when I'm not looking and I don't like it. This should not be a thing they aspire to, or that is a treat, it's just not a good thing. The more I complain about it the more they'll want to do it maybe? Though that didn't work with my complaints about religion at the school did it? Hopefully they'll come round to my sensible vegan way at some point. Thing one does at least say "I didn't want to go to mcdonalds but the others did" whereas thing two will go quiet and sneaky about it, it's his secret, don't tell boring old dad...
We're going on a train trip to London soon and they will be expecting a full complement of snacks for the way there and the way home.
At least they now think diet drinks are the normal and can't understand anyone drinking sugary cola.
Hectic Thursday again, no time for a proper lunch break with staggered school runs. Then their tea and straight off to swimming. Was I supposed to make a Buddha Bowl for our tea too?
Ooh last night I updated my Holiday reminder app1 though I think it's so heavily cached that you won't see any changes if you've used it before. Tightened up the styling and added "meta" tags to it for better use on your phone and if the link is forwarded. Not that anyone is using it or forwarding it. Got some more ideas for it but they're a bit more disruptive so I keep putting them off.
Keeping an eye on what is going on in Turkey not that I personally can do much about it.
Glad the first announced act for Glastonbury is Diana Ross, I hope it stays all acts I have no interest in seeing.
