A few years back my kids saw "The Wiard of Oz" for the first time, one of the twins asked my dad whatv i was like when the world was black and white.

Last year Nathan (aka mischevious imp) and a friend got in trouble at scholl for some good natured wrestling. When the teacher asked the other kid what he should've done, he responded "that's a tough question" Nathan said "that is the million dollar question....." "Want to phone a friend?" The teacher couldn't decide whether to strangle Nathan or crack up so she left the room.

A few years ago, we had a power cut wich lasted until the next day. We spent the evening playing board-games by candlelight.

My then 6 year old asked me if this was what i used to do before we had electricity!!!!
