Your line for this week is:
“Whatever you do, you can’t do that.”
“Whatever you do, you can’t do that.”
Chrissy looked up at her father who was wagging his finger at her.
He wasn’t smiling but didn’t look angry.
She weighed up her options, which for a four year old weren’t that many. Either she did what she was going to do or she didn’t.
She smiled her sweetest goofy grin and raised her hand to start. Maybe he was playing too.
‘No Chrissy,’ he said. ‘Don’t.’
Moving across the room, he took the fork from her little fist and lifted her into his arms.
She snuggled in close.
Maybe poking those little white squares in the wall wasn’t such a good idea afterall.

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes!
In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too.
On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts.
From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives.
We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

Thanks. My nephew was fascinated by the power sockets on the wall at a very early age and my brother just stopped him in time. Nephew is now a highly qualified engineer who is also qualified for firework displays and has done over 1500 parachute jumps for charity!
Amazing
He’s a lovely young man…………. of 54!
We used to joke that our first house was a “kid killer” because the original owner had been a shop teacher/electrician and his basement was his workroom. There were outlets spaced every 2 feet around the entire room at ~ 5 inches from the floor, again at 2 feet from the floor and then at about 1 foot from the ceiling. All you needed to do was provide the kid and a fork! We had 2 children in that house but kept all forks secured!!!
Don’t blame you!
