Three boys inquisitive boys walk into my hut.
Their mums are sitting close by.
We talk for a while and I tell them how the machine works.
They seem interested, asking more questions.
I am grateful of the company and conversation continues.
We talk of what they have seen today.
They tell me they are on their Easter holidays
And that they will soon get to eat Easter eggs.
One of the boys tells me he has had one already.
I am about to tell them I have given up chocolate
But first ask if they know what lent is.
Two of the boys put their hands up.
They tell me what they know
"It's when you make a promise."
The smallest boy proceeds to tell me his promise.
The same boy starts a new topic about the oldest boy's school.
He speaks with speed as though he can't wait to get the words out
"He used to go to {insert school name here}
But not anymore...
Some of the girls and boys kiss there!"
He quickly remembers to add
"But only in Year 6!"
