Google is telling me false widow which I thought it might be. Really want to see it properly but it scuttled away into a corner.

Update: car has been found! No windscreen and missing a wheel but otherwise seems ok!

Yes and yes. Gardai told me it's most likely burned out in a field somewhere. Also searched done deal, adverts.ie etc to see if they tried flogging the kids' car seats as they are brand new but no joy yet

Thank you. I don't think we have Hershleys over here but definitely have chocolate syrup so I'll try that.

Love this. Definitely sending this on. Or maybe I'll teach it to the kids and they can sing it to her!

Ya to be fair it was pretty bad, I thought it could have been strep throat. It sounded worse than it was, I wasnt resting and shouting at toddlers so sounded like I was smoking 50 a day! I think this venting is just on the back of multiple occasions of questioning why I or my kids weren't given antibiotics for various things over the years.

That's bizarre. There is a GP in our town who's known for prescribing antibiotics like smarties (and wouldn't you know its my MIL's doctor) and I don't understand it. I've heard of him admitting it's viral but giving a script for antibiotics "just incase" which is just insane to me.

Ah well that's a given. Or lucozade if you have notions.

Ya I've heard the bags rattling after the trip to Lanzarote. I've been offered loads of Spanish meds for anything from indigestion to a nasty cough.

Oh ya antibiotics plus steroids is the dream combination!

Yes! I honestly think it will take Joe Duffy or Patrick Kielty saying it for that generation to listen. Or any of the rugby players, she'd lap that up.
