Hi from Cooky ;-) QUESTIONS YOU ASK YOUR KIDS Psychologists have come up with 10 key questions parents should ask their children so they can 'reconnect' with them after a long day at work. They include: “Tell me a story or some school gossip” “Where are you off to with your friends this week?” “What are the names of the toys you played with today?” “Who is taller – mummy or your teacher?” “Tell me about the best game you played today ...” “How many times have you smiled today?” Now, I don’t think these are the kind of questions that most parents ask of their kids… So, what I’d like to find out from you today is… What is the question you are most likely to ask your child, or children, when you get home from work? Or, alternatively, what one question would you like to ask them, but never do? Questions for your kids please

Cooky - THE BAY SURVEY - So here's today's little teaser folks.... "The average person goes here 16 times a year..........where is it???"

Cooky - FILM PROPS I was wondering the other day what prop from a film I would like to own if I could own just one Here’s a few suggestions… • I reckon the Star Wars Light-Sabre would be number one – Hedge trimming would be so much easier with one of those • Possibly the ring from Lord of the rings – Imagine what you’d get in cash if you pawned it • Then possibly The Wardrobe, from “The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe” – Talk about spacious and interesting? • Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine X-Men Claws – You’d never have to buy another collection of knives again • An electric guitar from “Spinal Tap”, along with the amp that goes to a volume level off 11, rather than 10 – Imagine how much more you could annoy the neighbours • Doctor Octopus’s extra arms from “Spiderman 2” – Imagine how much quicker you’d get the housework done • Megan Fox from “Transformers” – OK, she’s not a prop, but I want her anyway • Mary Poppins’ bag – It was basically a “bag” version of The Tardis – You’d never have to pay excess baggage at an airport again • Any Batmobile, but especially the Christian Bale one which can be driven across the tops of buildings – No parking fines there • The teleportation chamber from the film “The Fly” – assuming it works – Imagine what you’d save through not buying a season ticket Over to you then ;-) What one prop from a movie would you like to own? Extra marks for the more unusual ones…

Hi from Cooky ;-) The Foreign Office have today revealed the most bizarre requests British Consular Staff have had abroad. Among the requests were: a man asking consular staff in Stockholm to check the credentials of a woman who he had met online; a woman asking consular staff in Tel Aviv to order her husband to get fit and eat healthily so that they could have children; and a man in Rome asking staff there to translate a phrase for a tattoo he wanted. What’s the most bizarre question you’ve been asked in your job?

Hi from Cooky ;-) Apparently women's handbags contain more bacteria than the average TOILET. The dirtiest item is hand cream – which carries more bacteria than the average loo seat. So, apart from bacteria, what unusual thing do you have in your handbag?
