Yesterday’s corner time: 21 Minutes.
I’ve learnt the F word.
Again, I picked this up from my Dad. He tried to make out that he had said “fudge” but I knew differently.
My Dad swears a lot when performing any DIY jobs. He also becomes very paranoid, believing that the forces of nature and ill fortune are conspiring against him.
Yesterday, he was tasked with what appeared to be the simple job of mending the valve on the Radiator. I got my toolbox so that I could help.
My Dad knelt on the floor whilst I assisted by standing on his back and swinging on the curtains.
“B*#*#!y typical!! That b*#*#!y nut on the b*#*#!y valve won’t b*#*#!y budge a b*#*#!y inch.”
Once I had established that my Dad hadn't said “fudge”, I proceeded to use the F word for the remainder of the day. Hence the corner time.
In future, Mum says she's going to make Dad stand in the corner whenever he swears, which will mean that he’s very unlikely to finish any DIY jobs.

- I'm Matthew, I'm 6 years old. I have a Mum, a Dad and an annoying, 4 year old sister, Becca. I started writing this blog when I was two. I had more time on my hands in those days. Becca wasn't even born and I didn't have to attend school for every waking hour. Still, whenever I can, I get up to mischief and I document my adventures here.

Very weird to read a 2.5 year old inner child.
I'm a 2.5 year old outer child too.

In our house only Daddy is allowed to swear, so no one goes in the corner when we DIY
I think my Dad would like your house. He's got to put up a playhouse over the weekend and things may get ugly!
