The joys of parenthood!!

Quite.

Grandparenthood has (so far) been a doddle .

But I suppose my youngest will be kicking off phase two of this sometime after September (god help her if she's already started, I'm quite broadminded and took Moira for a dirty weekend in the guest retreat in Caldey Islands Monastery so they have a way to go to shock ME, but I think madam juniors mother in law to be has some very old fashioned ideas.

She also won't hear a word said against BoJo so the reception might be interesting ...

Dont start me about drilling holes in lips....

At the age of about seven my eldest tripped over the quilt in our bedroom went flying and smacked one of her teeth right through her lip and blood went everywhere and I'm surprised you didn't hear the screams in the Highlands all the way from South Wales.

It was only the second time my 132bhp Toyota Corolla was pushed to full emergency thrust (to get to the A&E dept). The first was when my brother's eldest became a cot death statistic.

The third time it exceeded 122 was when the registrar at the Gwent, having examined her said the damage was actually far, FAR less than it looked and the easiest fix was to simply extract the milk tooth shed pushed out of the socket, patch it up and wait for the next one to grow out in a few years. But he said while they could sort this, a far better quality of microsurgery on the mouth would be possibkevatba specialist maxillofacial unit up the road ... But there were no ambulances ...

The promised motorcycle escort never arrived until 15 mins after I got her there .....

They did a stunning job...

And then when she was about 23 she had a bloody metal piercing dine right where the scar was

Arrggg ! What a bloody waste of time and effort.

The joys of parenthood!!

But that would only start another fashion trend.

Sadly on mothers day all three contenders were women (sorry T00ts I know blokes can be stupid too) a runner up is the woman flying to Turkey from my part of the world to have her teeth done.
The plane diverted to Austria where she was booted off after slapping other passengers verbally abusing flight crew and trying to open the door mid flight.

The others are young women putting fake freckles using henna inside their skin and end up looking a mess

Why do they do it?

It's strange isn't it? They search for their idea of perfection. Perfect life, perfect homes, perfect looks, perfect possessions presumably because they feel that it makes them an object for admiration. I guess it's actually always been the same throughout the ages for both sexes. Each era has had it's extremists in one way or another. Just look at the dandies, flower people, mods and rockers of the 60s. 
I'm not so certain that there were similar hopes of world fame as a well paid influencer which seems to drive the most crazies. Still I guess the web has brought opportunities for some to earn while doing very little. I wonder how they will cope when middle/old age suddenly greets them through the lens.
