'A WEE BIRDIE TOLD ME.' 'EAT YER CRUSTS AN' YE'LL GET CURLY HAIR.' 'THE NURSE BROUGHT YOU IN HER WEE BLACK BAG.' 'YE DON'T NEED TAE BRUSH ALL YER TEETH. JIST THE WANS YE WANT TAE KEEP.' 'NO, I WASN'T LOOKING THROUGH YOUR DRAWERS. I WAS JUST PUTTING AWAY YOUR CLEAN UNDERWEAR.' 'WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR BEDROOM FLOOR? I CAN'T FIND IT.' 'JIST REMEMBER. IN LIFE WAN MINUTE YOU'RE A PEACOCK AN' THE NEXT YOU'RE A FEATHER DUSTER.' 'YOUR TEDDY WITH THE ONE EYE HAS GONE TO LIVE IN HEAVEN.' 'CASTOR OIL CURES EVERYTHING BUT A WIDDEN LEG.'
