Sporadic work on a news magazine is always a nice change. It’s probably about the only time I stop worrying about what the children are (or aren’t) eating, what they’re getting up to, or into, and instead start worrying about Iran’s nuclear capability.
There HAS been a lot of activity at the airbase right by us, lately.
This aside, landing slap bang in the middle of a news office again has rendered me speechless this evening, so today’s post is inspired by something I heard on the radio on the way to work.

A school car park calamity! Also on Catboy’s Facebook page, it would appear this BMW-driving Dubai mum needed a break from the school run too (and look at the shadows of the other mums taking photos!)
So, to join in the fun, here are my three-word Thursdays:
Nothing to wear
Traffic’s terrible again
Dubai is back
Late for school
Dodgy drop off [forgot LB’s pet fluffy duck]

Seriously? Slow down, lady! EDITED TO ADD: Though I think a consensus has been reached: She must have put the car in drive, not reverse
Two-day week!
No afternoon pickup!
Pea-soup brain
Adult world shock
Gossip round kettle
NEED office wardrobe
Missed the children
Iran’s VERY close
Oh no, traffic
Weekend’s here, yay!
Pizza or Lebanese?
Will kids lie-in?
Christmas is coming!
