Growing up, holidays are when we got to eat sugary cereals. Yummy.
I'm with you on this...
Shoes are rarely necessary.
The boys have left home now, but this was mine:
Under no circumstances will Mum be woken up before nine in the morning.
That's pretty much it, really. LOL!
Oh, and 'thou shalt not kill thy brother'. That was a good one.
Perfect holiday rules. Kim's comment made me smile as I have let my kids eat coco pops this holiday. We'll be back to cornflakes or weetabix next week though. :D
Most of this I agree with -you've got it nailed, pretty much... that and Jay's not waking Mum :)
No lamb on the menu! I chase enough sheep about at home, I'm not chasing a piece of lamb around my dinner plate!
yeah! I shall print this off for the enxt holiday!! great stuff!!
our rules
1) at least one person must incur a bruise
2) someone must purchase a necklace. the tackier the better.
3) no one goes anywhere until momma gets either a chai or a diet dr pepper. she who drives, drives the holiday.
4) laughter must occur at least once an hour or beatings commence.
5) no one goes to bed until momma gets a nice little cookie-type treat.
Holiday Rules
RULE 1
The best food comes from someone else's kitchen preferably accompanied by either a full bodied red wine or a pint of fine Real Ale.
RULE 2
When travelling on canals all Pubs are fare game even it's only 10am.
When hungry refer to Rule 1 when thirsty refer to Rule 2.
