Jack and Jill

[uksparks]

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.
Up got Jack, and home did trot
As fast as he could caper
He went to bed and bound his head
With vinegar and brown paper.

do you think they stopped off at the chippy on the way home for pie and chips?

It's going to be a long way off before I have grandchildren!

We have grandchildren too. Two are coming to stay in a couple of weeks. And we now have a dog.

A handsome chap.

It should all work out. He loves children. One for breakfast and one for dinner.........

Nice dog, my parents have a tri colour collie and a tri colour shelty.

Nice dog, my parents have a tri colour collie and a tri colour shelty.

He really is a nice dog. He is from a rescue centre and we knew it would be a risk not knowing his provenance. He is a year old, big, and can be boisterous. We have learned that he can nick stuff off the kitchen worktop, even right at the back. He is tall.

But he has such a gentle nature. He'll come into my office and lay his head on my knee and look at me with that gaze........
We got lucky.

Do you know that the roots of the nursery rhyme 'Jack & Jill when up the hill' are French. Also Humpty Dumpy was about a cannon in the English Civil War.

What puzzles me is WHY Jack got himself involved in carting buckets of water up and down the bloody hill in the first place!!

It's a Woman's job for Chrissakes!!!

Remember what Daniel Hangman (sharp) says, for an contrary leg best brown paper and paraffin.
