Disability jokes?

Now the other day  My family and myself went to see Shrek, which has to be said was a lot better than I thought it was going to be and was indeed highly entertaining. Such as the film the humour is on two levels one for the children and then of course one for the adults.  Now you know there is going to be certain type of humour.


I am always open minded to anything within the realms of decency.  This had to be said the reference to Bi Polar made be feel  uncomfortable  but that due to the fact that I grew up with a Bi Polar mother and such things open wounds for me to some extent.

So are such jokes acceptable in your opinion ?

Everything about this product oozes quality.

However I have some reservations which are slight, it is centering around the price.  This bracelet is shown on the Kit Heath website as retailing at £60.  
I do worry about the cord of the bracelet and I assume it is very hard wearing but then again your little girl would only be wearing it for special occasions as it certainly isn't a every day item. It is an ideal gorgeous keepsake gift this bracelet would be just perfect  ideal for giving to your bridesmaid you can add to the collection with the matching necklace. 

So all in all a lovely item for your princess and all her royal demands!

Disclosure: Kit Heath sent me this bracelet to review, the views that I’ve expressed here are my own
