M5's five cents' worth

On M5's *fifth* birthday it was the last day that New Zealanders could use their *five* cent pieces. Now the smallest coin in use Down Under is the ten cent. We have a h-u-g-e jar of *fives* that we use mostly for gambling at cards, but today,
during a little quiet moment, M5 decided to tip them all out on the lounge floor and make *me*, Mummy.
"See, it's you Mum, with the curly hair."

    of course not, tho' i did make a mental note (and now a cybernote lol) that he said to me before he got down to The Real Business of Creating, "mum, twenty of these makes one whole dollar: i know because i counted."

    Talking of jeans - just check M5's pockets for holes. From recent experience, you seem to have missed your chance with S9 !
