Self Entertainment

Took boys to a lunch buffet.
Returned seat after filling up 1st plate.
Boys were excited.

I : What are you two talking about?

YB : Cars.

EB : We're looking at cars just outside us.

I : You meant the Roundabout?

EB : Yes. Do you see the traffic lights at RA?

I : Yes. On all sides. It's a big RA.

EB : We bet which one is the 1st to start.

YB : Yes, we bet which one is faster.

I : Wah! That must be good fun.

Both : Yes. Just look at that car....

Nervous

Boys started their new school last Thursday.
Two days before term started,
Elder boy & I had a chat.

EB : I'm a bit nervous, Dad.

I : Nervous about?

EB : About 1st day at school.

I : That's normal - I was too.
So, what're you nervous about?

EB : I may wear my uniform wrongly.

I : Why?

EB : It happened to a boy in a comic.

I : But you'll wear it the right way.

EB : Also, boys' toilet may be dirty.

I : May be clean?
May be more than 1 toilet?

EB : I may not be able to do a tie.

I : So, what do you think...
You can do about this?

EB : Practise More?

I : Yes, of course.
Remember what I always tell you,
'Practise makes things...

EB : Better!
