Does anyone else suffer from this?

I saw a parent today and it went quite well but WOW!!! can I talk :blush:

Lookig back I wouldn't be suprised if I scared her off :( - but having said this we have alot of information we are trying to impart in quite a small space of time. I guess we just have that one chance to sell ourselves.

Am I alone with this problem :eek:

I have been known to talk complete and utter drivel...

Both on the phone and during the interview :rolleyes:

I can't alk to people in a social situation at all - I'm a total misfit. BUT boy can I spout it when it comes to business - it's amazing, even I can't believe it's me....

I just wanted to say I'm so glad you used that phrase as my English teacher when I was 12 said I had 'verbal diahorreah' and I've never heard it since then. I think I was quite insulted at the time!!

Oh - and that is one of about 5 words I just cannot spell.

I have verbal diarrhoea (nearly abbreviated but I realised in time what the sentance would have read like lol) nearly all the time. And I can manage to put my foot right in it even when there doesn't appear to be somewhere to put it

And I totaly agree that putting your foot right in your verbl diahorreah is a much more pleasant mental image than what you were trying to avoid :laughing:

Apologies once more, the kids have broken up, hubby is away, I'm UNKNOWABLE

I'm not sure if this is the actual thread

http://www.childmindinghelp.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=2642&highlight=Tena+Lady

There was a really funny thread where we all waffled on and for some reason we got onto tena lady. Actually i think the thread started of quite serious but due to my VD (VERBAL DIAHORREA everyone) I think I just twittered on in a childish and comedic way!!! :D

Oh that post is TOO funny and TOO true!!! :magnificent:

I actually have those dappled glass bricks on the one wall in my bathroom, that lends light into the passage, and helps with this very thing. So the younger kids like to stand there and *watch* me :eek: But they do not see any detail, just this *shape* inside... doing her thang! haha

It's weird for me.. waving at these 4 or 6 eyes looking at me... whilst I, ahem...

:laughing: I have just sent hubby a message on MSN because he gets a lunch hour and has a big Asda 2 minutes away.

Actimel
Yogurts
Kids Vitamins
Milk
Food colouring (that will stump him)
and a bag of play sand

:laughing: :laughing: He is going to regret suggesting that he picks up bits for me in his lunch break.

I asked him but I think he has a problem with his keyboard as there was a message returned that was full of asterisks and exclamation marks. :laughing: :laughing:
