Back in harness now but while I was at home I was doing some sorting out and read one of our family holiday journals from a LONG time ago and here are two classics.
Andrew told us the story of a lesson at primary school when his teacher Mrs Crozier was talking about people wearing funny clothes. After the teacher's introduction, she asked the children, "Does anyone know anyone who wears funny clothes?" and Andrew volunteered, "Yes Miss, my Uncle George" That was true, he was a bit eccentric in that department at times.
Daniel: I went to the toilet for a pee and was wearing some light coloured trousers. As sometimes happens, things get held in reserve and then embarrassingly release themselves, showing the world how careless one has been. I wrote in the journal that I dashed back to the room before joining the family and got the iron out and ironed the offending water mark in situ. I did what I thought was enough and then joined the family. As soon as I walked through the door Daniel asked, "Have you wet yourself?" Doh!
Kids!!
Forgot to make a note of when that was but if Andrew remembers how old he was when he was taught by Mrs C, we can work it out from there!
