    Mrs WES and I once had a discussion over a bottle of red about what age would you freeze them at if you could. 8 and 6 for us. No downside at that age and they are still a joy.

    Anyone who doesn't want children has no soul.
    Then I have no soul. Nor do I want one.

    The dying alone thing..... not a good reason for having kids, in my opinion.

    Apparently I will inherit about a dozen guitars in good time. I can knock out a few chords at best.

    What I will do with a few Fenders, Epiphones, Music Man and Martin guitars is beyond me. The old man should sell them now for cold, hard cash and go on holiday imo.

    Then they say it's the greatest thing.
    Then I say I've just been on holiday and they look sad.
    This reads like an extract from The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Nighttime.

    A great book if you've not read it. Talks a bit about the tube as well, so I'm sure you'd enjoy it.

    You should have a soul, Peter. You never know, you might be able to find one that knows something about goalkeeping.

    Actually I go for a pint with the 10 year old.
    Do you use him as a homing device, sw?

    Packet of crisps or nuts, sugar free soft drink. He may bring his iPad or play something on my phone and we will converse not 1 word.

    A true modern day family scene.

    the only time the kids speak is when the wifi goes down.

    otherwise it merely a series of grunts.
