Is it Hot Take Thursday? I think it is. Anyway my hot take is: Milo is not that great. It's ok on ice cream or the occasional hot drink but it's pretty bland.

    That everyone as well as kids <5 need ankle bracelets that deliver an electric current when they're not walking on the left of footpaths.

    Nothing crazy.. maybe 220,000 volts or so.

    Most children under 5 should be leashed

    Mine were, lol.. both were pretty keen on doing a runner as soon as they were released from the confines of a stroller/car/parent, and I had foot issues after the 2nd pregnancy (plantar fasciitis for example) so i didn't fancy my chances of hobbling after them. My chase-hobbling looked like a John Cleese silly walk on speed so the cuddly toy baby leash backpack was employed. When my mum passed away and I was clearing out the cupboards I found a 70s baby leash with parental wrist strap.. looks like the apple didn't run far from the tree 😆

    Excuse my brain: John Cleese & Bill Nighy silly walk stalking toddlers to an Attenborough overdub

    He peers at it with bulging eyes and an over extended neck The toddler scones it’self on a coffee table in the fourth suicidal attempt since teatime. One male prances in a hopefully distracting manner, while the other juggles 28 cleaning products. There has been an incident, he must evolve or nobody is getting a pretty blue thing.

    heh..

    Actually saw that recently at the shops and wasn't quite sure how to feel about it.

    I understand that it's now OK to do this - apparently having the kid on a leash/harness means they "can explore their world with both hands" rather than going through life with one hand raised up above their head in their mother's grasp. Apparently the leash/harness is good for brain development and posture. I'm from the first generation where such harnesses were not OK (the Dr Spock baby in person), and I sorta kinda get where they're coming from. Also a less stressed mum.

    Depends how much Milo is used. Needs half a cup of Milo powder to get any taste. I don’t buy it any more. Too $$$$$$

    What role, exactly, do you envision Tom Cruise in? Because I’m imagining him as Gandalf and I can’t stop laughing

    It used to be better. Now it's so expensive for what it is.
