Spec. It came to pass once in the lifetime of a certain species I cannot really say that they are fairies because all I know is what my dear old grandmother teaches. 'Can you explain what they are like Gran?' She smiles 'Everyone asks me that,' she replies. 'They are around. Why does everyone want...
