It's more like the plague with bruises and bumps,
The person below me caused all the lumps.
He had a big stick that was long and quite straight,
And yet all this time I thought him a mate.
Then she who's indorrs with a gripe and a groan,
Said that my 'mate' was only on loan,
So I lie here feeling so sad and so blue.
I've run out of rhyme so it's now up to you.

No way. Life's too short for me to stop travelling just yet, although some folk get locked inside for reasons we won't discuss here!
I do remember all of mum's advice though- make sure you have enough money for a taxi or phone call home, don't put shoes on the table, don't get into cars with boys, leave a little bit of milk in the bottle for your father's tea, don't steal fruit off the neighbour's trees when she can see you from the kitchen window.

We soon found out that we were caught when Mum was waiting at the back door one day after our afternoon tea episode, with the wooden spoon in her hand ready to make that unwanted threat, she never used it but the just sight of the wooden spoon was enough to have us behave, unlike the person below who was threatened with..............................................

Well, not that way I didn't.
Can't remember getting hit or whacked. Grandma used to tell mum she should use her hand a bit on us but mum never did (and so dad wouldn't have been game).
Mum was a yeller, but only when she needed to be. She was also a chaser, and would run after us around the yard till she caught us and poked us all the way back inside for a bit of quiet time to "think about things".
Dad was a threatener, always promising to stick my sister in a convent boarding school. Oh boy, we 2 youngest prayed he'd carry out that one, and she would stop picking on us!!
Bit like the person below, whose older siblling also made life a misery...........

No glass of wine, but have a nice big pot of soup on the stove, heating is on (although the cleaning isn't done- never mind).
Been watching Collingwood win this afternoon (thus the cleaning was never going to get done).
The person below me would rather watch footy than do the housework too.
