Subject: RE: BS: The things kids say!
Still remember the little blonde cutie who told me and the class I was teaching that they'd had a difficult time at the weekend because her dad had hurt his tentacles. Luckily I made the right guess and asked if it was his tendons that had been hurt ...
Then there was the 7 year old child who was listening to the story of how Sir Gawain got married. When he heard the test question of "What do women most want?" he put his hand up straight away. "Good sex", he said. The word went around the staffroom amazingly fast, all of us wondering just how he knew ...

And finally, my favourite mis-spelling of all time. A class I worked with recently had just been to visit the HMS Victory and another ship, known to some of them as the HMS Worrier. I think there's probably a whole novel in that one - motto "But what if...??"
