Big flashbacks at teatime….
It’s curious how the brain gets ‘stuck’ in the ‘fight or flight’/Red Alert response, isn’t it? Take yesterday teatime for example (or evening meal, to non-Yorkshire people out there!)

Then, giggling (in a little boy’s voice): “Okay, mummykins… I’ve been such a good little boy, can I have a million pounds, please? Like NOW! In CASH!!”That’s another bonus. He’s got his fabulous sense of humour back, too.
