yes, breakfasted and bathed here, the dryer is on and a couple of chores to do. I need to leave for work by eight and it's the kids first day back at school (even the delinquent one!)

It's the sailors prayer
And for the sprog's tees we Bowdlerised it slightly to read:
Oh Lord above, send down a dove with wings of softest feathers to tickle the tums of them mean blokes That sells bad pop to sailors
And here's a performance from, yes, Pete Townsend!

Oh Lord above, send down a dove; With wings as sharp as razors; To cut the throats of them mean blokes; That sells bad beer to sailors.

Not sure when this was but I am glad to see that I was wearing a tiara...
Yes, a tiara with your tonic (and gin), while cooking tamales. (Ok, they weren't tamales, but they were of Mexican origin...and the alliteration rocks)
I didn't post this before because I had to get clearance from the Sprogs' Parental Unit regarding posting....but they have their own little back-seat chant for getting tired of long road trips! I made them do it twice so I could film it!
That's cute! And considering their ages, it's probably much more appropriate than "Hundred Bottles of Beer on the Wall."
Me too. And just remembering any one of those four youngsters still makes me smile.
