We sat in front of the TV and watched what mum wanted…
She-Beebies,
the CBBC sister channel aimed at girls.
It’s the last channel any boy would choose to watch..
in fact it’s too girlie for most girls!
I don’t know why, but I felt obliged to ask if I could go to the toilet.
First mum insisted I say ‘mummy’ instead of ‘mum’,
then she told me that I had to sit down to wee.
“That way you won’t get any on your dress,” she said with a smile.
“And make sure it doesn’t get tucked in when you pull your knickers up!” she added as I clumped my way up the stairs.
