My mother and father:
"Now what are you doing? I'm trying to read the paper."
"I'm holding your hand, love. Doesn't that send a thrill of excitement through your body?"
"Not especially. I hope your hands are clean."
"You used to like me holding your hand when we were courting."
"If I let you have two free hands you'd have eaten all my sweets."

Love it.
Lovely stuff. Alanbennettesque.
delightful, sugar! xoxox
I don't suppose 'eaten all my sweets' could mean something rude could it?
After all - you were listening.
Would they need to put their teeth in first?
Jimmy and Gareth: ta lads
Savannah: and ta milady
Kaz: no: my dad enjoys trying to shock his children
Madame DF: not if my niece had been trying to avoid the hard centres
my dad enjoys trying to shock his children
Role reversal - don't you just love it?!
Sx
I've just realized. You are Peter Tinniswood in disguise and I claim my five quid.
:-) Sweets, though - did they start courting a very young age? (I was expecting the word "chips").
I love your mother and father.
Scarlet: I've never been able to shock them, which seems a abit unfair.
Major: it's working up north that does it; God knows what I'd be like working in Yorkshire.
Gadjo: they didn't let you take chips into the pictures (that's where all the courting was done in the 1950s)
Libbie: thank you. I suspect I do, to.
that's brilliant!
