My eight year old makes himself toast, very domesticated and stuff, this morning I was reading the paper and he makes some toast, he says to me, 'Dad can I open this new butter', I dont look up but say yes, thinking nothing of it, until

five minutes later he comes to me and says, 'Dad, this butter isnt very nice', he also looked a bit green, I looked at it and it looked ok, apart from a small white peak of unmelted 'butter', so we go back in the kitchen, there is a pound of freshly opened LARD with the corner missing.....

Maybe he was trying to be traditional and wanted to try a bread and dripping sarnie

Hmmm, the war ended almost 50 years ago (2nd world war that is) dont think modern 8 year olds are very well up on techniques to stretch rations !

A guy I worked with a few years ago still ate bread and dripping sarnies. Strangely he wasnt fat either.

My eldest (4) always wanted to do her own brekkie and she's finally cracked it so doesnt throw half a pint of milk, a packet of cereal and all the sugar over the floor these days
