Where's the P.M.? Shouldn't he be in view, not hiding away ?

Why do you think the baby looks smaller ww?
Two photos taken at different times.

Yes the first one we saw just after Wilfred was born and the other one is billed as having been taken on their recent Scottish very short 3 day break.

So 3 months between photos? Bit weird!

But then what isn’t weird with is PM?

Either way, it’s diverted attention away from the exam results fiasco so it’s job done really.

Am I the only person that thinks dragging a baby into this thread is below the belt?

Photoshop is so clever - but they got it wrong this time ;)

I don't think anyone is blaming Carrie's baby for anything Pantglas

The comments on here are beyond belief!! Has Wilfred got smaller, what about his hair?!! why didn't they sit in the garden, did they sit in the tent in the day, or sleep in it for one night, did security officers sleep in the tent? Did Wilfred sleep in the tent, or did Boris with Carrie leave Wilfred in the house presumably on his own!! Did they use the gate or clamber over chairs, maybe the police used the chairs? All these mind blowing questions are certainly an enormous worry. Wonder who owns the land,the Farmer only rents it! Another conundrum!! Dear God have you people really not got anything better to do than pick over three days of someones private summer holiday stitch by stitch?!! Carrie certainly took some lovely photos but no doubt those will now be closely scrutinised and duly picked to pieces! No I don't think I.Blackford spilt the beans or anyone else on the political front, but obviously some dreary person did!

?? do catch up, it is everything to do with photoshopping and the lying. Nothing to do with the child!!

When you have a PM that is a known liar you tend to question everything they say and do.

You would be idiotic not to question

I did think of commenting on dragging a baby into the wilds and the amount of work involved for a few days away, having tried it myself when mine were young. It doesn't make for a relaxing holiday. However, I decided not to bring wee Wilfred into it.

I camped with a small baby. If you are an experienced camper and a pretty laid-back parent, it’s not a problem. Toddlers are much worse - they disappear into other people’s tents!

Jabberwok. Well said

Well you've obviously read all 13 pages of comments to know all the detail therein!
I have enjoyed the thread over a grey, blustery weekend.

I did too, geekesse, with a 5 year-old, a 3 year-old and a baby a couple of months old, in about 1970, before tents with frames and standing room height were affordable. We had had many camping holidays on our own so were experienced. The older children loved it but it wasn't really a holiday, making up bottles for baby and rinsing terry nappies in a bucket. The following year we bought a second-hand caravan which was vastly better.

No not all 13 pages, I simply couldn't stomach the endless rubbish, but enough to feel deeply worried about the gate and the fence,and baby Wilfred! Now the worry is exactly who owns the land that the farmer rents?! That's a head scratcher for sure! No doubt all will be revealed at some point, meantime we wait with baited breath ready to pounce!

I was doing it a little later - early 1990s with five children 10 —> 3 months. Breastfeeding solves the bottle issue, and disposable nappies are a blessing, though you have to be responsible about disposing of them. We used a big canvas scout ridge tent with a toilet tent (chemical toilet) laced into one end.

I had a miserable 'holiday' in the same part of Wester Ross with a 16 month old toddler, in a dilapidated cottage. The weather was awful and the midges voracious - the only safe place was under water. In 1972 we didn't have disposable nappies and there was no way we could dry the ones we washed. Oh, and I was pregnant with DS2. I think we lasted 4 days.

The latest picture of him with a baby in a sling, made me smile, I say ‘A’ baby as it is half the size of the baby that was sitting on her chest in the first pictures of him ?

Ah well , of course they didn’t take their own baby. Or, maybe they don’t have one at all. Perhaps the couple in Scotland are doubles. The tent is probably for the baby at night so it doesn’t wake them. The dog is left with the baby as a guard.

Oh, for goodness sake !

ginny ? yes, this thread is getting a bit Monty Python isn’t it?

So now we know what Boris Johnson does in his holidays.
The only remaining question is what he does the rest of the time.

Add to that .....Johnson never had Covid it was all a pretence, or he did have it but nothing worse than a sniffle, the dog really belongs to someone else and the cottage in Scotland was snatched from another couple who had booked it earlier and are now inconsolable at losing their holiday.
Plus there are no midges in Scotland anyway.?

Soon be September and back to being sensible for everyone.

Yes you probably right
