To all you olympia baby haters!

That is indeed semantics (and a rather narrow view of it,given that vitriol,like millions of other words,has other meanings too) because as well as another name for sulphuric acid,vitriol is also malicious criticism,which I'm very sure you're aware of.
You seem a little snipey and pedantic on this thread,which is not you? Your reply to cavecanem was somewhat terse also...get a Christmas sherry in ya Cpt!

NbC:oversized foetuses...that's a new one! Sounds delightful.;)

but that's my point.I saw no malicious postings on this thread, vitriol or otherwise. And my comment to Cave Canem was taken how I wrote it and not how you read it.

Sherry???? YUCKETY YUCK - awful stuff !!!!!
 
OP I'm glad you had a lovely time and that your daughter did too. I don't think there is anything wrong with taking a child to something like Olympia if you have a plan if they kick off! Olympia, in my opinion, is a family show, its magical and is very much aimed at an audience with children in it.

I don't have children, but am quite happy to see well behaved children at events and shows - it helps them learn how to behave, how can they if they are never taken anywhere??

As for screaming kids on a plane, I'm a stewardess, I've just landed from a ten hour flight from India with about eleven babies under 18 months on. I have to tell you the 150+ adults gave us a heck of a lot more hassle and noise!

Come on people! Stop being such humbugs.
 
Interpretation is ,of course, individual and on these sort of emotive subjects, can also be affected by what camp you're in;)
Anyway, all's well that ends well,so,again, Merry Christmas everyone (whatever you're drinking/not drinking..;))
