I once had the most delightful child knock on my door..father was a crazy biker who showed no interest...mother was only interested in where her next ciggie was coming from..
Anyway..he knocked my door..when I opened it he said ''Excuse me...but if David has left any of his tea..may I have it?''
I had the biggest lump in my throat ever..
''No, you may not have it'' I said, ''But if you tell your mother where you are, come back and I will cook you something''
He was a regular visitor after that..until social services took him into care..
I sometimes think about him..I hope he is happy and doing well!!...
