More "wee" problems at Christmas time

It has been reported that the Nintendo "Wii", is malfunctioning in people's homes this Christmas due to flashing Christmas tree lights interfering with the game's infra red sensors. This will no doubt cause even more upset, arguments and tears amongst the land's "little people", but then, isn't that what Christmas is all about?

I also discovered last night (well very early this morning actually) as we sat chatting after Midnight Mass, that I also had some "wee" problems when I was a young child.

Apparently, when I was 5, and living in Cummersdale, Nr Carlisle, I was not used to the local dialect, and the fact that the word "we" was used instead of the word "who" in certain situations. Having spent an age with my sister gathering wood from around the village to build a bonfire, I was approached by a group of small boys who said "...we built that bonfire?", to which I replied "...no you didn't, we did!"*

Looking confused the group slowly backed away.

* for the 'slow of brain' the above conversation is translated as follows: - "Who built that bonfire?" - "...no you didn't, who did!".
