Easter Bunnies and a Rampant Rabbit

I spent this morning pottering around in the garden. Not through choice, I simply couldn`t find my house keys. Oh how I enjoyed the snow. Snow!. Its April the effing first and it is still snowing.

Anyway, to kill time I decided to prune the wife`s bush. Just as I was about to set about it with my trusty Swiss Army knife the daughter yelled April Fool! and produced the keys. How we laughed. She has her mother`s sense of humour. Does anyone know how easy it is to give children up for adoption?.

More developments in the strange case of the feuding Daughters of the American Revolution gang. As you may know they have ruptured because of ideological differences. A group consisting of mainly erstwhile lawyers want to resume work, they are now known as the "Daughters in Law". They hate the stay at home Daughter/mothers who think working mothers are super abusers. This group now style themselves as the "Don`t-Oughtas". Confusing I know.

To add to the confusion there is now a sub fissure between the two leading "Don`t-Oughtas". Accusations are being hurled around that involve a trip to the Accident and Emergency Department, a steak and kidney pudding and a Rampant Rabbit. Your guess is as good as mine.

The upshot, total chaos. The natural order has been turned on its head. There are no-go play dates, kids are napping rather than playing with the enemy and some have witnessed drive by ignorings. On the plus side the splinter groups are now so small that I am suddenly in demand. Whereas before I was as welcome in most households as a case of swine flu I am now invited into, and schmoozed in, the Street`s most fragrant salons. The hob nobs are munched as poison is slowly dripped into my ear. There`s nowt as queer as folk.

Moving on. Thanks to those who have given feedback on the blog. I love you. Have smashing Easters.
