“May I see the canes, dearest?”“Mmm. I bought three. A junior and a medium, and this ‘special’.“What’s so special about it then?”“...ell darling, that’s for you to find out! No, this one is made of local willow, that’s why it’s a bit darker than these school-type rattans.”“Quite the expert aren’t you?”“Hey, don’t be so cheeky! I’m only telling you what the giant chap in the shop told me.”“Mmmm I see. So are you going to do your giant impersonation for me?”“I’ll say! Bend over darling!”He. As often happened I was the beneficiary of my dad's excesses, in this case it was in the form of a 35-350mm professional quality lens for 'his' top of the range camera.That big lens appeared to drag the insides of the shelter across the pitch and place it outside my hideaway.

Pausing a moment, Pat had a look. ‘Where should I put my bag?’ Smiling, I replied, ‘Follow me, and I’ll show you.’ Walking down the hallway to the spare room, which is right next to mine, he peeked into my bedroom, and commented, ‘Wow, nice big bed.’ He was wearing a flirtatious grin as he said it. My smile widened. What a cheeky boy he is, I thought to myself. ‘Let me show you the other room – it’s where you’ll be sleeping.’ We walk into the room which is decorated in a Chinese décor: black.
