Default Some mothers do have 'em

Well Cambridge doesn't have a football team of note nowadays.

But you are quite right. Trying to persuade my 15 year son to dress up
properly requires quite an effort. It doesn't seem to do any good
pointing out that the military dress for the climate and it's certainly
not macho to be cold.

It also falls on deaf ears (well ALMOST) when I remind him that two or
three years ago, an 18 year Cambridge student froze to death on the way
home form a party.
