rector, I can remember our youngest daughter painting her bedroom walls
with smoething a little more pungent...needless to say she went into writing that painting...

Thre is a fascination for small children
with the vast, unmarked expanse of a wall. Luckily most of them do grow out of it, but every child I have ever known has done it (including me :P ).

Congratulations to your daughter on her first academic paper, you must feel very proud of her. I understand your feelings about your budding graffiti artist granddaughter. Did my daughter do things like that; only once if I remember rightly. I do remember doing chalk drawings on the pavement and the neighbor's reaction .

So happy to see you're enjoying your retirement. Loved the tale of your grand-daughter. I know nothing of such things of course.

LOL

Like they say in the States, "Rock on!"

As for your granddaughter she’d make a good NYU student. I know a place where the students draw graffiti on the restroom walls. Just like her age group. Excellent! Always, BC-A, Bill’s RJJst

The very best lamb doesn't have that strong flavor that shouts "Sheep!" Some I had in NZ was very delicate indeed! What we get here in the US isn't nearly as nice!
