There's no feeling quite like your kids wolfing down what you've just cooked for them - even if it's just egg and chips.

When on holiday (esp. camping) with small kids do u: (a) stick 2 their bedtimes (b) loosen bedtimes a little or (c) let them stay up 2 9/10?

Back after a slightly shortened holiday thanks to geordie knobheads. Still had a nice time, but knackered from mammoth drive.

Finally getting around to reading "bad science" (much later than I should have). All I can say is, wow! Should on the national curriculum.

Happy holibobs everyone!

I still giggle when people say "a rissole". There, I said it.

Listening to The Maiden. Grin inducing.

Very cool show. Nice when tv is done with such enthusiasm. #sherlock

You could tell Hayward was gonna go. He already looks like he's played by Michael Sheen.

It's a good job they don't name whirlwinds, or jimmy white would be sh!tting himself right now.

The poo lady has really shot herself in the foot. @gillianmckeith (not Dr) #youarewhatyoutweet

*bugger* just swallowed the stone out of a plum. Not a good idea for someone like me :(

Right result in the end. As much as I like #ned, #esp were much better and only spoiling prevented them scoring earlier. #worldcup

Would love #ned to win, but #esp look really strong. Who knows in this #worldcup ?

I'd pay good money for Special Agent Oso to die in a horrific jet pack "accident".

Annoyed by the news. Time for United States of Tara.

Journalists interviewing journalists. This feels like Chris Morris.

Shame. First #ger side that i've ever liked. Come on #ned in the final. #worldcup

My God. I'm willing #ger on. What's going on? #worldcup

This could be good. First proper test for #ger. #esp playing a team that can tackle well and can hit hard on the break. Rubs hands #worldcup
