The regrettably delayed British Blogging Mummy of the Week

So, we're home. And I would just like to say that I hope there is a special type of hell reserved for those who allocate planes to flights and who scheduled a particular flight between Moscow and London NOT to have seat-back tv screens. And then decided that the most suitable film to show on the overhead screens should have 'adult' content. In addition to a feature-length version of Doctor Who (now renamed 'Dr Cool' by Boy #1), who up until this point hadn't seen it but who is now probably having nightmares about cybermen as we speak. Nice. Thanks a lot, Mr Scheduler.

But therein lies another post...

In the meantime, however, I'm late - again - with this week's British Blogging Mummy of the Week. So sorry... But I hope you'll forgive me if you get the chance to read this week's pick. I waffle, I know it, so when I find a blogger who is trained to write and is able to be short and to the point, using only 3 paragraphs when I would need 10 to do the same job, I'm a fan.

This week's blogger, Susie Mesure at Babies Who Brunch, writes of herself:

'I'm a budding newspup trying to carve out my own little niche in the blogosphere. I'm just back from living in DC for six months where I had fun blogging about history as it happened. After the excitement of Obama's victory, Gordon Brown's tribulations just aren't doing it for me so I'm giving politics a miss for a while. Luckily there is plenty more to write about.'

I particularly liked her confession of how she found herself becoming one of 'those' mums. You know. The competitive ones that we all diss until we find ourselves doing it too...
