Oh Rob!!
I believe you are not allergic to teenagers??

As WC Fields famously said, 'I like children, but I couldn't eat a whole one' !!

Of course, I don't class you as a child. Maria Esther - I was just referring to the screaming and running around type of child - but even those aren't too bad!

I don't know consider myself as a child anymore, my childhood is gone...

And, I don't like children very much, if you know what I mean. I still believe in the saying "children should be seen and not heard"

The times I have heard that said back in the late 50's and early 60's by aunts, neighbours and anyone else who thought I was getting on their nerves!
