I remember being told 'in a minute' by my mother when I asked for things... I would go and stand in front of the clock, watch the minute hand traverse the requisite space and then go back and say 'it's been a minute, now can I have.....?'

As for 'eat your greens' - Limpit put away a prodigious amount of asparagus spears last night.... but then, like her mum, she's weird.

Besides, isn't "eat 5 portions of fruit or veg a day" just Nanny, sorry, the Government telling us to eat our greens, or a sneaky marketing ploy by the Association of Greengrocers?
