I was in Southampton city centre one Saturday a couple of years ago doing a bit of window shopping. The shop next door was a newsagent with one of those news advertising things outside, advertising that nights' special £20 million lottery. A young lad (about 8 or 9 yrs.) and his dad walked by and the lad slowly read the advert, "£20 million-wow! No-one could EVER spend that much money, could they dad? "
With no expression on his face but with a sad, vacant look in his eyes, the father answered, "Your mother could son - your mother could...."
