OTT?

The kids each insisted on sitting on my lap to do stuff (at different times I am glad to say).

The Cygnet was intent on something on the tablet and wasn't too hard to shoot (apart from having to do it one handed).
Squirrel on the other hand wouldn't sit still and was squirming about terribly and pulling faces.

Camera club had another excellent evening with Ian Rutherfofd giving a talk about his experience shooting the Olympics.
I would recommend looking at his website.
