Luke is home sick from school today with a disgusting cough. While hanging out the washing in the back yard, Luke wandered down the side of the house towards the front yard, then returned shortly afterwards to have the following conversation with me...
L - Mum, why is there an old lady with a bucket and a rake in our front yard?
Me- I'm sorry, did you say there's an old lady with a bucket and a rake in our front yard?
L- yes.
Me - Is she still there?
L - yeah.
So, bewildered, I wander out to the front yard to see and old lady with a bucket and rake walking out of our driveway gates, getting in her car, doing a squealy u-turn in our street. I stand there, flummoxed about the scene I have just witnessed. AND to top it off, she didn't even shut the gate!!...........
OMgord...I am a little concerned.
ReplyDeleteHow bizarre...did she have a shiny red apple that can make all your dreams come true ?
