Does Your Child Drink?

[marval]

I have been looking for a christening present, for my great nephew.

I have found all the usual things, but some of these make me wonder.

They seem to be in the wrong category.

I can't see anything weird except a bottle of wine that might be intended for the parents as it has two names on it and engraved wine glasses that seem to be intended for the godparents. A Christening tankard is a traditional gift although it should be silver.

Children below the age of 5 should not drink.

JJ's right.

The legal drinking age in the UK is 5 years old.

// JJ's right //

A new first for AB

So they have gripe water as babes for colic - what's that? Just a thing called ethanol as the major ingredient other than the H20

[joggerjayne]

Gripe water. Wow. Do they still do gripe water?

[tonyav]

They've taken the fun out of gripe water now ;-)

Drambuie on sore baby gums when teething?

[joggerjayne]

Woodwards?

Nooooo!

Only Dinnefords make gripe water.

[tonyav]

Ok jj, now stop griping about it.

Can you still get silver egg cups and spoons ? I had one for my christening and I still have it pride on my bookshelf, nearly 62 years later !

I used to love, Gripe Water.

I just knew you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth mikey! ;0)

[mikey4444]

LOL Elina, but so far from the actual truth !

[Elina]

Ha ha!
