I'm guessing there will be a lot of Rehab quotes on this post :-) My daughters often like to repeat stuff I've said in the past because (I'm rather proud to admit) I've reduced them to tears of laughter on more than one occassion. They are all quite young though and my eldest is getting to the stage where she sometimes finds me embarrassing. The 7 and 6 year old still think I'm cool though :-) So here are a few I've said/ heard:

- If a job's worth doing, it's worth giving to you to do (said to a team member)

- If you look up "idiot" in the dictionary, you'd find a picture of Simie (my 7 year old) in it - not a new one, I know, but I love it

- Group Manager trying to look masterful in front of us "I'd like that done 5 minutes ago, please" when giving me some work. So I replied "It's OK, I never take any notice of what you say anyway".

- My eldest was helping me label some files at home and I said "This one should say bills... so when Bill comes, you can give it to him" It took her a moment to realise what I said :-)

- Rehab's remarks about the post about the dongle still make me crack up just thinking about it

I've run out of time now! Someone please add some and I'll come back!
