JULY 19TH

 

"Hello Mum "

"Hello Erik "

"We need to have a talk " says Erik sounding very serious !

"We do ? "

"Yes "

"Okay"

"The other boys and me are wondering just when do you intend to get us into our shorts and t shirts "

" Soon, very soon " Mum mumbles

" How soon is very soon ? " Erik give mum a serious stare

Mum looks away " I just need to find the box "

Erik points over to the Sasha Studio " So what you are saying  ,is that you spent a week on tidying the studio and now you cannot find the box with the shorts etc  !"

Covering mum says " Well you are already wearing a t short and lots of people wear jeans in the summer !"

Erik looks at his mum in disbelief ! " Really ! Mum it's in the top 20's possibley 30 degrees today, noone would want to wear jeans in this weather !"

"Wel..."

Erik cuts Mum off " and some of the boys are still wearing heavy woollen sweaters  and HATS!!!! "

Mum goes red 

Erik almost.. almost lets her off the hook but he knows his brothers will give him stick if he does.

Taking a deep breath he says " My brothers and I, who are still dressed for midwinter ! will be removing all our clothing in protest and walking  about commando until we get our summer clothes "

" And what you going to do if your sisters appear ? " say Mum smugly

Erik goes a little red but continues " Nothing ! If they see something too bad ! " he says with a touch of bravado ..

Then before mum can answer, he's off calling out to his brothers to start stripping!!!!

To be continued....
