My husband and I are always careful to store potentially dangerous articles, especially drugs, out of children's reach, so I was horrified one day to find my toddler with a full bottle of yellow tablets.
I realised the tablets must have belonged to my grandfather, who was holidaying with us, and on checking, found my son had taken the tablets from a drawer in grandfather's room.
The drawer contained another bottle of tablets and a razor, complete with blade. I'm sure other parents are just as careful with drugs, etc as we are, but I wonder how many realise the potential dangers in visitors' luggage?
Since the experience with the tablets, my visitors are always asked : 'Anything to declare?'
It's far better to be safe than sorry.
