I suppose it could've been worse. I brightly announced that perhaps it might be a lovely idea to go to a stately home and learn about some history. As soon as we got there I remembered why I don't use the flipping National Trust membership - because National Trust properties are full of very precious and breakable items, and very precious and breakable items don't really mix with children, especially not small boys. \u003cbr\u003e                    Where I had envisaged childish faces glowing with wonder as they took in the treasures of our nation's illustrious past, we instead had me shouting `Don't touch, DON'T TOUCH, FFS DON'T TOUCH!\" while stoutly shod pensioners tutted disapprovingly and drafted angry letters to the Daily Mail in their heads.\u003cbr\u003e                    How many more days of the holiday are there?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e                              Welcome to Mummy's world...\u003cbr\u003e                    The Boy Child Peter is connected to his iPad by an umbilical cord, The Girl Child Jane is desperate to make her fortune as an Instagram lifestyle influencer, while Daddy is constantly off on exotic business trips...\u003cbr\u003e                    Mummy's marriage is feeling the strain, her kids are running wild and the house is steadily developing a forest of mould. Only Judgy, the Proud and Noble Terrier, remains loyal as always.\u003cbr\u003e                    Mummy has also found herself a new challenge, working for a hot new tech start-up. But not only is she worrying if, at forty-two, she could actually get up off a bean bag with dignity, she's also somehow (accidentally) rebranded herself as a single party girl who works hard, plays hard and doesn't have to run out when the nanny calls in sick.\u003cbr\u003e                    Can Mummy keep up the facade while keeping her family afloat? Can she really get away with wearing `comfy trousers' to work? And, more importantly, can she find the time to pour herself a large G+T?\u003cbr\u003e                    Probably effing not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Gill Sims\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Pages: 368\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: HarperCollins s\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: 08 Apr 2019\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Thryft Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Like New","offer_id":45867745083673,"sku":"PR6119","price":12.36,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":45867745116441,"sku":"PR6119","price":9.89,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":45867745149209,"sku":"PR6119","price":8.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Well Read","offer_id":45867745181977,"sku":"PR6119","price":7.91,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/0598\/4849\/products\/9780008284220.jpg?v=1717717066","url":"https:\/\/thryft.sbs\/products\/why-mummy-swears","provider":"Thryft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
