What crisps you got for babies?

Overheard

You don’t even know if it’s your kid and you're buying designer clothes for it

I'd forgotten children had ears

Mum to young child: no you’re not redecorating your room
Child: you can’t stop me I’ve already got a floor plan

I think my arms are too long, I mean this is a lot of reach to have

Where were you working? We’ve gor’em all ovah the place!

My eyeballs are sweating

I can find deeper voiced squirrels that have had more profound and interesting incidents in Notts
