Hi Marion

Re: Bless her wee cotton socks....
this reminds me of my eldest lad on his first day at school, came home, and mum took his blazer off, to find broad beans in the pocket !!, he had taken them off his plate dinner time, because he does not like broad beans, and he thought he would be in trouble if he left them.
