Safari parked


J: wow that lion is so close, isn't it beautiful. Can you get a photo.
Zach: oh it's moving
J: OH BLOODY HELL!
Zach: Mum! You said a rude word!
J: Oh sorry Zach but that was a bit scary. Hey - how come you're more shocked by me saying a rude word than you are by a great, big lion nearly landing on the car?!!
Zach: because the lion was doing what I expected it to do but you didn't!

I ain't fraid of no ghosts..

Zach: mum?
J: yes honey?
Zach: dad said that you didn't used to drive when he first met you
J: yes that right I didn't learn to drive until a few years before you were born
Zach: he said it was because your mum was killed in a car accident when you were young and that made you scared
J: well, yes I suppose that's true
Zach: really? I can't imagine you being scared of anything!
J thinks: bloody hell - I thought I was scared of everything...

don't skip the fun...

J: Zach did I ask you to get dressed or did I ask you to make a skipping rope out of your pyjama top?
Zach: well you said to get dressed but I decided to add some fun to it!
J: oh ok I can't really argue with that then

Wii wonder

Zach: mum can you help me get the Wii operational?
J: yes Zach, I assume you mean can I turn it on for you?
Zach: yes please. I thought you'd be more likely to do it if it sounded like something technical!
J: pretty smart aren't you
