Was looking at a clothes dryer, and it said that one of it's key features was that it had a child lock.

Not having had a dryer before, does this stop them getting out or.. ?

So you don't let your kids drive the tractor p!ssed?

I make them choose one or the other (drive tractor or get p!ssed) but only on non school-nights and I am responsible - they can NOT havePanadol with it

Every chrissy/easter my Mum buys my kids crappy $2 shop trucks/cars that fall a part in moments (and they beg me to fix - coz they love em ).

This year, in large shiny stickers, the Truck's box said "Now with NEW NEW!!" and "Extra!!" (extra what exactly?)

Dunno - but who doesn't love a bit of EXTRA and NEW NEW.
