For reasons I can’t remember I tagged Mrs Leftfoot in this post from the Facebook Archives …
28 May 2020
Bit of
afternoon delight.
Curtains,
window, bedroom door all shut tight.
Footsteps
on stairs and knocking on door.
"Wait
a minute!"
Thunderthighs
walks straight in as his parents desperately pull the duvet over themselves.
"What
do you want?"
No reply.
Question
repeated.
Thunderthighs
wordlessly and expressionlessly pulls the door closed again and footsteps
recede downstairs.
When we
are up and dressed and have opened the curtains, window and door we call
him back up.
"What
was it?"
"Oh
I wondered where you were and thought Dad might be ill."
No but he
needed a lie down after that.
Sorry
about the unbleachable mental image.
McChurch You close the curtains?
Spoilsports.
Woolerwoman What a caring child!
Mrs Leftfoot Where do I come into it?! ... The mind boggles.
