More pants

"When I am king," my four-year-old started up again. His brother interrupted: "You can't be king. You have to be born into a king's family to be king." The four-year-old looked momentarily disappointed. He thought for a moment or two: "When I am a policeman, everyone will wear pants on their head."

Even Granny? What has she done to upset him? I came back from Monaco last week over-excited at having spotted Prince Albert.
"Guess what?" I said to Bea aged six and her friend Manon. "When I was in Monaco I saw a REAL LIVE prince."
"Yeah, whatever," said Bea. "We prefer princesses."

Pants on the head is a very boy thing. There's a TV ad for something or other that fulfils just that fantasy.

And of course two pencils up your nose and uttering 'wibble' - your son is an obvious Blackadder fan.

A genuinely good idea - the ad is for some kind of detergent Mr Appleyard - I hardly ever wear pants - oh no Ms Minx is here I don't want to start that going again!
