My kids have been my godsend. I suppose Captain Pugwash has been sent by someone as well..... probably my guardian angel who knows I need a 'challenge'. Nut I know he would never physically hurt me, so the angel aint too malicious !!!
I'm sure your mum is a lovely person bob - to have spawned you!! However - Cinzano? She needs NoM and I to teach her a thing or two about drinking .....
