Bluebottle Burgess?

Robbie had been warned not to molest the sat nav on the way home, so we had no more foreign languages, but Robbie wasn't bothered because he had found another use for it. He noticed that it shows when the road runs near a railway line and this caused considerable excitement (for him!). His unintelligible grunts, whoops of excitement and expressions of pleasure sounded like a one man remake of the Goon Show, but I'm pretty good at filtering him out when he gets on my nerves.

The state of the house left something to be desired when we got home and I knew the holiday was well and truly over! The girls are very bright, but when it comes to practical stuff they can be totally dense. The milk we left for them had gone out of date and they had bought more, but they had kept the old milk in the fridge, I thought we had gone into yoghurt production! When we poured it away and washed out the bottles it stank, but when asked the girls justified not getting rid of the milk because they didn't want to make the kitchen smell!!
