"Put on your big coats and go out to play!"
Said my mam on a freezing February day.
"But mam, it's cold, and those clouds look like rain.
Can't we just light the fire, stay inside, play a game?"
"You're under my feet and I can't get 'owt done;
I've the washing to do and the tea to get on.
"Your not made of sugar, and won't blow away,
so put on your big coats and go out to play."
