Wondering whether I should subscribe to the Heimdall school of parenting, especially given that we as a family seem to be part-way there already.

Yes, I have just spent the weekend shepherding my children around London and explaining why you shouldn't try to feed the pigeons rice, or climb into the Trafalgar Square fountains, why do you ask?

We did have a lovely time catching up with @samanthahalf and her small person, *and* we got to go on a boat, which was awesome. But R did panic about missing the Cardiff-London train and had to be prevented from dashing onto the train to Holyhead (presumably because being on *any* train was preferable to not being on one) so chaos was ever-present.

@florilegia "explaining why you shouldn't try to feed the pigeons rice,"

Space dust/Pop rocks not a thing any more?

@ukscone They’ve had popping candy before, but there’s no way they’d consider sharing it with a pigeon!
