Anyway, firstly she ended up with blue lips - so I asked her to go and wash her mouth. She couldn't get the blue off, so came back looking like this...

Then she went for a No.2 tonight and ran out saying she'd done a green poo. I was alarmed until I remembered the blue..... can't be good though, can it?!

I wonder then if the colouring they are using is better for hyper kids, but is bad for clothes and poo's. Can't have everything I guess!
