After being told off for getting out of bed one night, my five-year-old said, “Daddy, tell me how you do that – see through walls. Because when I grow up and I have children, I’ll need to be able to see through walls to tell them off.”

Bad egg
When cooking together, I asked oiss Three to get me an egg from the fridge. She took one out, inspected it, and put it back again. She then selected a different one, looked at it again all over and then handed it to me. I asked her what was wrong with the first egg, and she replied, “That one wasn’t very good – it had bird poo on it.”

Good timing
oy grandson was about to have his fifth birthday and his wee friend went off to buy a card and a gift to take to his party. “I’ll get a card with ‘four’ on it,” he announced to his mum. When asked why, he replied, “Because he won’t have been five for very long when I give it to him.”
