River Tyne again

I would have gone to Glasgow with Donald today to visit Luke but I had a class to attend this afternoon.
This leaves father and son plenty of 'man' talk time.
I wonder!
Donald is probably all geared up for a Mr Ben's and cowboy boots shop visit, which Luke isn't interested in.
Luke is probably all geared up to show his dad the latest pc game, which Donald yawns at.

If I were there, I would be probing for all Lukes innermost feelings of angst, or joy, or worry, or what needs done, or etc etc probing.

David, who was adopted into our family as an 18 year old, was at one with Danny and Luke at the 'wisdoms' I tried to impart to them, they fell around laughing and now, (me as well) throw these adages into conversations at every opportunity. Well, if you can't beat them, join them.
