My daughter found the funny side of all this....

Post by boosmum » Wed Oct 20, 2010 7:30 pm

Last night I was getting ready to go to bed and my daughter who is 8yo asked to play with my machine for a bit to see what it's like. It starts at pressure of 4 so I let her.

I went to the toilet and when I came back she had "customized" my mask.

She had stuck little peices of tissue paper next to the vent holes so that when the machine is on and blowing, the tissue blows around!!

Very creative

I did take them off before *I* went to bed though

I was far too busy laughing to even THINK of taking photos LOL!!!

I love the thought of kittens playing with the streamers sooo cute (yet would be annoying).
