“Four Things” by The Blonde Kid, aged 8…
The Blonde Kid: “There’s only four things I want…although they are quite expensive”
Me: “What are they then?”
1. “A Ben 10 decorated bedroom”
2. “An M3P player or an iPod to listen to my music on” (I think he means MP3 player!)
3. “Virgin Media/Sky (Cable TV) in my bedroom”
4. “A Laptop computer to play Club Penguin on”
Not much of an ask then? Suppose we’d better get saving…son of a geek you say?

Haha - sounds so familiar! ‘We’ are currently running around pretending to be ‘Iron Man’ having been to see it last Sunday!
‘M3P’ player is on the way from ebay…!
“Iron Man” ought to about do us in; right now we’re out saving the neighborhood on inline skates whilst wearing an empty camelback. You never know who or what might be lurking around the cul-de-sac.
It sounds like a very happy birthday is in store (what with the M3P player and all), and I wish The Blonde Kid a wonderful year to come :).
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.


What is it with eight year olds? I just gave mine my “old” ipod mini, and now he walks around with it on all the time yelling, “What? What??” when he can see us trying to talk to him.
Resistance, as they say, is futile.
The Ben 10 bedroom sounds pretty awesome, and the laptop, well, again, it’s gonna happen sooner or later, soooo… We’re currently playing “Iron Man” on the Xbox360, which will have to suffice for now.
Good luck with all that :).
