London Zoo made us ill...



Contrary to popular belief, this skirt wasn't from the kids range but funnily enough is much smaller than the kids one I bought yesterday. This one though was just £3 from Matalan, Bury St Edmunds.

The picture probably doesn't show it well, but it has a purple and black houndstooth pattern.

My 'la pharmacie' box has been getting some good usage. Both kids have been poorly all week. Worryingly they took ill monday, the day after our family trip to London Zoo.

I can't understand why. I became completely OCD'ish about the hand sanitizer they had everywhere at the zoo. Making them form an orderly queue at each sanitizer stop (and there were quite a few!). My son even started drinking the stuff. At one stop he wanted to do his own, so stood beneath, looking up, mouth wide open to concentrate... and... SPLOSH, straight into his mouth. Eugh!






ps. Only a couple of days left to enter my second sweetie giveaway, don't miss out!!...

That's unfortunate! I hope that you are all feeling better this week. I love zoos, but what a shame to come back sick.

I'm really digging your ruffled white blouse with the boyfriend cardigan.

I remember your cute Pharmacy box! But I'm sorry to hear it's been needed.

I'm one of those people who doesn't think very highly of hand sanitizer. I cheerfully believe that what doesn't kill us makes us stronger. But then I don't have kids, I can afford to live dangerously! Moreover, does it work against viruses, or just bacteria???
