Dear Listener,
Just a short one this week...
Sometimes the stories we tell children to make them behave can have the opposite of the intended effect. We were told that if we were pulling a nasty face when the wind changed direction, then we would get permanently stuck with that facial expression. I remember an afternoon spent sitting on a rock with my friends holding grotesque facial expressions for as long as possible in the hope that the wind would change direction and we'd be able to go home sporting a contorted visage.
Well, here's another autobiographical fragment from my early memories, introducing another old-wives-tale for the collection.
As usual
here's the direct link to the MP3 file ... or blah blah blah ... subscribe ... blah ...
iTunes ... e.t.c.
I have also added an
"Archive" page here so if you have missed episodes or you would like to peruse the entire back-catalogue it should make things easier for you.
Sweet dreams,
Seymour
