It started as every day starts, with the chirp of the alarm clock and churrups from the girls. All went smoothly apart from the bit where the irresponsible parent (not mentioning which one.....) forgot to warm Munchkin's milk up. He drank it though so we thought nothing of it.
Nothing...until just as we pulled up outside Poppins' house. A fountain of water and curd cheese sprang forth from the Munchkin. If I wer pretentious enough, I would have likened him to a cherubim in the Trevi fountain, giving forth life giving, thirst quenching water with a little added extra. I am not so inclined. It was VILE. It was more like the scene out of the Exorcist minus the 360 degree head rotation.
Operation clean up commenced immediately. Munchkin was disrobed in the back of the car, changed and given to Poppins' for a bout of temporary entertainment. I busied myself cleaning up what can only be described as a well coated car seat (thank heavens for washable covers)
Still we got him home and he is, fine. The only thing that upset him was that he was hungry. So breakfast was administered swiftly followed by a handful of dry cereal. He has been playing all morning taking time out to wave at the dustmen and has just gone up for a sleep
Meanwhile, the cleaning staff has set to work on said car seat.....update on success to follow
