Geriaviator, how the years roll back for us all as we read your memories of a five year old, for we have all once worn that mantle. We have all inhabited that world of fun until all is brought to a sudden stop by older brothers or sisters or, worst of all, intervening grown ups. For most of us though it has long since sunk into the furthest reaches of recall, but you seem to have that same knack as Richmal Compton of inhabiting that world. Hers was via the ability to get there through observing her nephew, but you manage to do so via your memories of your own five year old self. A feat that so far out Danny's Danny (though I rather suspect that he could make that same temporal leap himself if he chose to!).
