Blog Fest

From nothin' for ages to this!!





But today this happened. I know I am being unreasonable.





Mae and I went to Dalscone Farm (you've seen the pictures, lots of play equipment, slides, etc) and I ordered her a lunchbox, which consists of sandwich, piece of fruit, crisps and drink.





The woman said ' for a girl or boy?'





I said, why are you asking me that? (I knew why). She gave me a perplexed look and so I said 'are you asking me if she wants a girly looking box?' She confirmed this.





I snapped, my daughter can have a boy's lunchbox, as if it really matters.





Gifts for girls- it's everywhere. And consists merely of pink shit. It drives me crazy. Geoff even came across some said pink shit on the internet, but even better! Covered in the playboy insignia!!!





I could go direct action on this.

We need to go round throwing green paint on all the pink stuff, as if it were fur.

Your link isn't working... is it just me?
I can't believe gender-specific lunches! I'm not sure but I think Britain is worst with its pink everything. I would join in throwing green paint... make a facebook group!
