@Khun Khun I need a book recommendation.

I actually have a pair of black crocs!

They are so comfy!

I made the mistake once of telling Mutley I "accidentally" wore them to the shops... *insert the gif of outrage*

:laugh:

Ok, confession time here. I have a pair of croc thongs. Very comfy as the heel end is a slight wedge. Better for leg muscles. I wouldn't do the other crocs though. Mutley can be outraged at me too.

I really like the Lee Child books. Start from the beginning as they're sequential. If you prefer lighter stuff but still in the same genre, Sue Grafton and Janet Evanovich are good. Janet's stuff is quite funny. Sue's are set in the 80s. Both are also sequential. If you like English writers, Elizabeth George is good. She writes the Inspector Lynley books.
Harlen Coban in his books has some very good oneliners. Again, sequential. I'll pm you a list of who I tend to read. Off to the movies now to see Hail, Caesar.

Does he write the Alex Cross books?
 
How is this for Mothers Intutition?!

As we were driving to the markets today I was discussing our son with my partner, saying that I hope he stays out of the swell, given it is so rough and I know he loves to bodysurf.

Private Number just called. It's my son. He is in DEM waiting for his X-ray results. He thinks he has popped his shoulder!

Now waiting for the return call to go get him. His car is still at Mooloolaba. The surf club called the ambo!!

No, Jack Reacher. James Patterson writes those ones. Haven't got into them.

I have read one of his Jack Reacher books. It was based in a bumfuck like town where everyone was getting sick and dying due to an unsafe work environment, that was until Jack sexily swaggered into town...

I have to admit that seeing young toddlers and babies in crocs is kind of adorable, but I guess this is an example of teaching them bad habits young. Birkenstocks aren't that bad are they?? Or is my lesbianism blinding me??

He is 100% okay.

I know! I told him that we were talking about him in the morning! I said if I had have called you begging you to stay out of the surf, would you have listened? His response, I would have pretended to, then gone anyway!

Stupid water babies!!!!

Ahh scary - hopefully he is ok! Not sure if medical knowledge is a blessing or a burden in times like this, but hopefully it's the former.

Worst case scenario will probably be a broken collarbone.

Skin integrity intact, walked himself to the lifeguards. Has full movement in his arm, just can't lift it up.

Pain is 7/10 and in his shoulder.

He sounded fine on the phone "Mum, I'm okay, the car is okay but..."[DOUBLEPOST=1456547971][/DOUBLEPOST]

My baby is sad and sorry for himself and being looked after by his baby.
