About Me

When I was a little younger than I am today, I took my snowman to bed with me. When I woke in the morning it had all melted. My mum thought I had wet the bed. I showed her the twig, carrot and two lumps of coal so instead of a scolding, she laughed and let me off. It was July. Now I always take a twig, a carrot, and two lumps of coal with me to bed. Just in case.
