I was clearing out my old stuff at Mum's last week and found my "Scouting for Boys" book. Only, I'd crossed out the "for Boys" bit with a texta.

Hooray for dirty bulking!

I am a female Army officer with ten years experience, including in combat. I'm going to blow my own horn here to make a point - I'm highly professionally regarded, I graduated in the top 5% of my military college class and was awarded the leadership award from the "premier leadership institution" in my country, I've…

EXACTLY.

I'm a closet Dr Phil fan. He says "kids would rather be FROM a broken home than IN one."

The Australian HQ for Barilla is in my suburb. I kind of want to head round there and give my pasta back personally....

Female dog, right? Literal bitch slap.

While I completely agree that we are tough as a species, please don't discount the high fetal and resulting maternal mortality rates in the developing world, as a result of some of that physical exertion. It's a disingenuous argument.

We have some awesome pregnant women in our pump class! One of them came to pump in the morning, full term, and gave birth that afternoon.

I came three weeks early because my mum was shifting gyprock for my nursery (I had to stay in hospital for a bit because I was early, and then for a bit more because there was no nursery ready...)

This is favourite and most interesting Jez thread of all time!

My favourite charity is a tiny Australian one that micro finances local people (from world wide) who have come up with their own local solutions, and gives them leadership and financial guidance IF they ask. I really hope their chairity model goes world wide, but it's completely lacking in sanctimonious, religious…

I totally, absolutely, completely, LOVE this version. It makes him human, kind of vulnerable, and very very sexy. Well, sexier. Not that I knew that was possible.

My mum is completely a different shape to me, so we can't share clothes (or even a look), thank goodness

I googled his name. It's all yokels and mug shots. An excellent addition to the story!

My four year old has tried blackmail and threats: "if you don't let me stay in the bath I'm going to.... " something. Whatever. It's always lame. And every single time we respond, even if it's actually a reasonable request, "NO!! We don't respond to terrorists!"

Don't forget your "interesting earrings"....
