    You never knew where he was going he was gone for hours on end. I used to just think it was when he was going somewhere and he didn't want anyone to know where he was going. I used to say it to Laura when I went down the local.

    My great grandma used to say, "think about all those poor children starving in Africa" when I left my crust or anything at the side of my plate. She once said it to me whilst force feeding me a cold Sunday dinner.

    Mine used to say this to me all the time. Me and my wife were laughing about it the other day as I said it to the dog when he wouldn’t eat his dinner.

    Now you just hide round corner and collar first adult to go in and buy them and you're bottle of white lightning. They mostly will say no but there a few that will oblige.
