    Me and DD were talking about games when I was a kid not so long ago. We walked past a chalked 'hopscotch' on the pavement. I said 'oh beds, haven't seen that in years' :D she said 'what's beds?' so I explained that hopscotch was called beds when I was a child and we played with a peever which ideally was an empty kiwi shoe polish tin filled with dirt :D :rotfl::rotfl:
    ......although I did once play with an Old Holburn tobacco tin in desperation :eek: :rotfl: failing that, as flat a stone as you could find :o

    I am now watching Glasto upstairs as DS woke up and I didn't want to miss Metallica

    DS: can we have this music in the car mummy?
    Me: Ok mummy will burn a disc for the car tomorrow
    DS: <crying> don't burn the car mummy :(:(
    Me: oh er um frantically trying to explain what burn means in this context, what with his current obsession with fires on planes etc :eek:
