For me it's about 2 days for before I need it. Meanwhile I see the rubbish truck heading down the road after dumping my cans in the back!

Probably not what you're after, Steve, but one of my favourites - Etiquette is used to exclude people, manners are used to include people.


And maybe something more like what you're looking for. After her bath the other night, my daughter (aged 4) mentioned being (or becoming) dead, I obviously told her that I hoped she wouldn't die - she took a moment and said, 'but Daddy, I will die eventually'. I asked her why, and she replied, 'because we need to make room for other people to live in our house'. And she's four!

A good point, and one I should pay more attention to. I find myself leaning more towards the letter than the spirit.

Yes, absolutely. It's amazing what kids can think sometimes.
