But really, Peter, we should be able to expect better behaviour in Lymington's coffee shops, now,shouldn't we? Just not good enough! The pendulum has swung too far from Britain's child un-friendly reputation.
Still, the little sods will be back at school, where they belong, very soon. Not long to go at all!

OK, to be specific, my incident was at Costa in Lyndhurst.
My "local" is Nero in Lymington. Pushchair access is limited so it's quite peaceful there!

Well before we had our second I'd have wholeheartedly agreed with that. Our first was a delight and you could take him practically anywhere. Unfortunately boy number two has turned out to have a completely different personality to his brother and, at times, is very hard to keep under control. His diet is unlikely to be to blame - he drinks no pop and eats a very healthy diet, mainly of fruit and veg. He is likely to be one of those children that gets on people's wicks while dining out. Now four and a half, he is gradually calming down, but very little about his behaviour seems to be influenced by myself or Mrs PC. He loves to show off and be the centre of attention. He's never horrible, but often noisy and boisterous. At least he's not lacking personality and one of those shy, shrinking-violets I suppose!
