My Dad used to tell me that the Ice cream man who played a particular tune (it changed weekly) was the one who picked his nose and put it in the icecream lol - it worked too as I didn't bother asking for one if I heard the tune. Cheeky wotsit got out of buying us a lot of icecreams that way lololololol xx

and when I was a teenager and dad saw me plucking my eyebrows he said "what are you doing,you'll get cancer of the eyebrows"
----lovely man lol he also loved to creep up on me and scare me if I was watching dr who and the daleks,whilst hiding behind the settee

Sugar gives you worms.

Dont eat the holes on doughnuts...gives you hiccups.

Eat crusts to get curly hair.

If you are awake when santa comes..he goes away again.
