Afternoon Delight

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.
