there's a post today on attorneys suck about the items he keeps in his car for emergencies.

it got me thinking about the stuff i have for emergencies:

* a compass
* a map of the zoo
* a first aid kit containing bandages and calpol but nothing useful like plasters or aspirin
* a pair of knickers
* a white umbrella that my mother bought in case it rained at our wedding (it didn't)
* mr spoon man (a plastic toy to entertain izzy if desperate)

i don't think i'd want to be stuck in my car in a real emergency.

============================

isabel has started going through the night without nappies. she just decided on sunday that she wasn't going to wear nappies anymore and hasn't had a single accident! it has been almost too easy...
