I think Baba must be a showoff!

Me, Granny and Baba went to the big pool for a swim today. I'm really good at swimming, or I will be when I learn how. But today, Baba was there first, waiting. While he'd been waiting, he told us he had swum 60 lengths! Yea, right, Baba! Who are you kidding?... and don't say a kid, because I'm almost 20 months and I'm a toddler now (while Baba is clearly ancient!)

Stands to reason that I must be fitter than old showoff Baba. I think he might be senile, or just hallucinating!

    "I'm really good at swimming, or I will be when I learn how" sounds so much like something a young child would say! You've really channeled the thought processes of the young with this series. Great stuff, Neville.

    Thanks, Christopher. However, I think it's because I haven't quite matured myself yet... and Mrs H doubts I ever will! :-)

    You're not alone. Most people say the same about me!
