poliphiloAilz and I are devising a family quiz- for all ages from four to ninety-something- to be delivered this evening via Zoom.
"Here's a question I might throw in at the end," says Ailz-
"Q: What will Amsterdam's red light district workers be wearing when they go back."
A: Gloves and a mask."
(This may sound like a feeble joke but is apparently a fact)
"I don't think so," I say.
"You're really miserable this morning," she says.
"No," I say, "I'm just being a responsible grandparent- another word for which is 'coward'"
