Good morning all, today brings another teaser, which is not meant to be taken too seriously.
It may cause some controversy, as depending on how you interpret it, there are two possible answers.
Good luck and be gentle with me!

Right who was that who coughed???
? This is my sad teacher face, as my wee DGD calls it, when I tell her to stop doing something. grin

littleflo, we have a word here in Glasgow to describe someone who tells tales. It's CLYPE and every class has one. grin

Doodle Sat 04-Apr-20 12:40:51

Oh. Sorry Miss ?. I’ll try and behave better. I’ll sit quietly in the back and not cause anymore trouble. ?????

Marydoll Sat 04-Apr-20 12:43:16

Doodle, if I believe that, I'll believe anything! I would miss your derailing contributions. wink

littleflo Sat 04-Apr-20 12:44:21
