On the delights of suddenly having no childcare, and resenting my toddler for wanting to spend more time with me than her new nursery. (Since this was filed before all of last week's palaver, I also refer to the last column as "sappy". Little did I know.)

My memories of being Very Young suggest that "I don't know what's going to happen next, or when, or how to stop it if I hate it" is the heart of a lot of toddler angst in new environments. Which makes even fun things fraught because when will they end? Will they stay fun? We don't know! FWIW.

It will be fun* to find out how many idjits will take offence at this week's column. *fun = a tedious Hell-waste.
