My idea of fun is taking 4 children to the swimming pool, in a rush, after school, trying to find somewhere to park, attempting to control 3 of them while the other reluctantly gets changed, trying to get 3 of them through the toilet when 1 is late for his lesson, 1 insists he doesn't need to go and the other needs to go *now*, then finding where the missing child has disappeared to, then herding the non-swimmers upstairs into the sweltering hell of the viewing area, then going back to the toilet, then retrieving lost children, then going back in the sauna, attempting to get two children to do their reading while the other still refuses to eat lunch but will play cars, listening to the teacher yelling at the swimming child, then refereeing arguments about snacks/toys/not running off, then going back downstairs to attempt to collect the swimming child and getting him to get dressed while the middle children argue over which one of them is going to carry the baby even as both he and me are screaming at them to leave him alone, then pack up 3 big bags of crap, go back upstairs whilst yelling for the missing children, realising 50% of the changing rooms are filled with people from the same school who've heard every worse you've been yelling (including the theatrical removal of the left leg of child#3 as child#1 screamed thinking I was doing it for real), finally reaching fresh air only to have to go back in to retrieve missing child. Yep. Love it.
