Mud Pies

Had to pull over to take a phone call and when I had finished I looked across the road at this scene and the twelve year old in my instantly came out and thought that if you had a torrential downpour on this amount of earth and given the size of available spades to do all the work imagine the size of mud pies you could make.

Then even more sadly I thought about the trouble I would be in with my mum if I came home with a spade this size and was all covered in mud. No pocket money for a week for me then.

Just occasionally these simple,immature and stupid thoughts cross my mind and take me back to a very happy childhood so long may they continue.
