Speak up in the back!

Driving home on Friday afternoon. Bax from the back says something like "Daddy....(mumble mumble mumble)...? please". I say "Speak up Bax daddy can't hear you" . Bax again says"Daddy....(mumble mumble mumble)...? please".

It does sound important but the car's grunting and the radio's going and we're going along a new section of road that hasn't been sealed.

"Baxter say it again sweet heart"

"Daddy, (blah blah blah) PLEASE?"

It must be something really important and he's trying do hard but it's along way from the back to the front in this big old 4x4.

"Dadddddyy ppllease!"

I say "Bax we can't hear you, shout !"

I hear "OK MUMMY"

G leans to one side, all ear.

And then ...

"Daddy CAN I EAT THIS PIECE OF SNOT please?"
