Of course, we had to catch and kill the flies first. (To make it more interesting and functional, of course). We had match boxes for coffins, and then we picked flowers from the garden and put them on the small mounds of dirt - carefully lined up side by side. When my Mum discovered what we'd been doing all afternoon, she wasn't particularly pleased. And therefore, our grave yard was abandoned. We were probably lucky we didn't dig up the pet dog, who, apparently, was buried only metres behind where we played. Phew.

Do you remember my hamster which we left with Mr Proctor during the holidays and it came back with 'Free Nelson Hamdela' on the bars. I can't remember what he did with Tessa ... I shall ask.

I'm surprised he didn't accidentally electrocute himself. He'd have been up for a Darwin Award.
