a simple yarn

It just goes to show you, you’re never too old….

The Kiddies and I had a trip into the city today. Day off school. Celebrating with a trip to the cinema. Lunch out. And of course, the bus ride…

Daughter and Son hop to the front of the top level, as kids are apt to do. I take a seat a few places away. Even after the day’s events and sugar intake, the Kiddies are behaving tolerably well, a bit loud perhaps as Son-Alex has but one volume. They wiggle, they squirm, they finally settle in and entertain themselves with a simple game of Eye Spy.

And then, wouldn’t you know, the elderly gentleman sitting behind them leans forward. ‘Uh oh,’ I think to myself, ‘he’s annoyed with their shennanigans and is going to reprimand them.’ And what did he say to them?

‘I spy with my little eye, something that begins with T.’
