a lovely scented heart from Dream Acres


messages from friends

a conversation in the car

E: "daddy why does the entrance to the tunnel look like the tube on the hoover?"
Me: "daddy don't forget to toot the horn"
E: "Why mummy?"
Me: "because Grandpa always does it when we drive into tunnels, you have to toot to scare away the bears."
E: "there are no bears mummy"
Me: "well of course not, we've tooted the horn."

  3. Horn tooting obviously works in the same way as tinkling a windchime to scare away the under the bed monsters- teehee! Keep childhood alive as long as possible I say!

  9. My dad always used to use a "cautionary horn" when going over humpback bridges.

    There is one particular bridge from my childhood which will always be known and the BiBip Bridge.
