Every week, a boy and his grandad play a round of golf together. One week, they see a snake and grandad quickly kills it with his club. Curious, the boy picks up the snake and examines how it flops and bends in his hands. He tries to bury it in one of the golfing holes, but it's so bendy, he can't get it to go in. "I'll tell you what" says grandad "if you can find a way to get that snake in the whole, I'll give you 50p next week for your cleverness". The little boy thinks, and after a few minutes runs off. When he returns, he's clutching a can of "extra hold" hairspray from his mum's dresser. He sprays the snake copiously until it's stops bending and goes stiff, then pops it neatly in the hole. "well done" says grandad, beaming, and they carry on with the game. The following week, grandad presents the boy with a bright, shiny £1 piece. "But grandad" says the lad, "this is twice as much as you promised!" "Ah!" the old man replies "50p from me, and 50p from your grandma!"Official Debt Free Wannabe Nerd Club member 095! Debt Now:
