The woods...

We ambled along having a nice chat about stuff. Then we got on to where you sleep at university. We chatted about halls of residence and the good things and bad things about staying at home while you study.

Eldest is firmly on the side of leaving home if he goes to uni - for no other reason than the fact he'll definitely be fed up of getting his undies mixed up with youngest's by the time he's ready for uni. Fair point.

I suggested that youngest might find his one true love while at uni. He said he thought not because "I would just come home and love seeing you....and Dad....if you're still alive". Fair point.
