After an hour, I was all set to start writing.
I sent my kids out for there 20 minute walk up and down the road.
They were just coming back, when the police stopped them and asked what they were doing.
"Exercise," replied one son.
"Do you live in the same house," he was asked.
"He is my brother,and we live in that house," Replied my son pointing to our house.
"Keep safe," the policeman replied and drove off. 
Out for a bit of air and they get stopped. 
I carry on writing a chapter of my book.
My youngest son says;
"Is that all you wrote!" 
Cheek! 
I leave the book alone and get on with the tea.
Gives hubby a big hug when he comes home.
