The birds and the bees

1 My little boy came in the other day with a really serious

look on his face and said, ‘Dad, do you mind if I ask you a

question? Where do I come from?’ I’d been dreading this

question for ages, but like a good father, I sat him down and

5 gently told him all about the birds and the bees. When I’d

finished, he was very quite. He then got up and went, ‘thank

you, Dad’ and headed for the door. I said, ‘So what made you

ask me?’ and he turned around and said, ‘I just want to know,

because Bobby next door says HE comes from Manchester!’
