>Not very often….#1202

…that you find kids who’s prefer to be at school than elsewhere.

These 2 young flossies accosted me on the Christmas market and said “we’refromtheMartunusschoolandwe’recollectingforUNCEFwouldyouliketo makeadonation?”

Being half-deaf, a bit dim and a foreigner to boot, I gradually decrypted the message (lip-reading’s a big help…) and deduced that they were collecting for a Good Cause.

You have to have sympathy with anyone collecting for UNICEF in Germany – it was run by a REAL bunch of hand-in-the-till ratbags a couple of years ago and it’s been an uphill struggle since.

Plus that fact that “it’ssoooooocoldIwishwewerebackinclass”…..
