For some reason, I was thinking of some of the little ditties my father used to say when I was just a wee little bairn. I find it amusing the things people remember from childhood. Sometimes it’s the littlest of things that pops into your head at the oddest of times! I feel compelled to share them - just because I can. (I’m sure there are more, but these are the ones that I remember best.) No life lessons in these - just fond memories.

I thought that kissing you was the nearest thing to bliss.
But now I know biology and I just sit and moan;
six million mad bacteria and I thought we were alone!
