Summer's Over

The summer is over, all the summer guzzlers have been and gone. July and August were for the kids, children,grandchildren and ,this year, great grandson. September and into October other family and friends, although these two seem to get fewer year on year not by natural selection but by choice. As well as restarting here I shall also start restocking the wine cellar.
The two early teen grandsons stayed on for a futher two weeks after their parents returned to the UK and fancied camping in the woods. Not brave enough to actually go down into the woods but at the bottom of the garden NEAR the woods.

The youngest lad Andrew arrived back from a summer in Spain and took his one man tent down there to join them. One night they were all sitting around their camp fire when 2 badgers came out of the woods, making lots of screeching noises and chasing and fighting each other, or so the grandsons thought ! Andrew explained to them, probably in the smutty vernacular beloved of early teens, that far from fighting they were doing something else.

Days later, after I'd taken them home, Andrew came out of the shower room and said "go and look at the mirror in there!" You know how when a mirror has steamed up you can write in it and then the message disappears when the steam evaporates only to re-appear when the mirror re-steams. Well the message left by one of the grandsons read " Andrew is a badger shagger!"
