Sensible parental advice..

I assume like me you weren’t the first child…as the 4th kid I was left to my own devices.😝

Yes, see post 39 about the pants! ☺️😄

I was the youngest of 3.

My wee niece was getting a row one day from mum about the likelihood of being run over if she went out with holes in her pants. As quick as a flash she enquired, "Why, are they unlucky"? I thought I was going to die.

I just remembered this from my mother. When I wanted something.

“All my life I give you nothing, and still you ask for more”.

My mum always said I shouldn't go out with wet hair.

And I should wear a vest in the winter to keep warm.

She's got a point if you get your hairy chest wet the vest will keep it warm.

Being the youngest, I got hand - me - down everything

I'm an only child, but I still got hand me downs. I had a pair of girl's trousers once with the zip on the side.

I think my Mum did draw the line at girl's clothes to be fair. 😆

My dad used to often say "mind those trams" (as in don't get hit or run over by one ), fondly remembering what his mother used to say to him as a boy.

When I was about 6 yrs old a cousin from Coventry came to stay for a while and mum told us not to come back till we had got dirty playing across the fields at the back of our garden .

I think it was the first time he had been outside to play.

I still remember mum saying it and I remind her regularly.
