freyja was doing her thing with her hands ( after of course warming them first ) on my head , alice was sat at the foot of my bed stroking my leg , and now not so little mark , who was visiting with robin and his mummy , found a switch on a redundant bit of machinery , and he clicked it on , and he clicked it off , and he clicked it on , and he clicked it off , and continued doing it until he had happily converted everyone within earshot into potential homicidal maniacs , and alice was the first to crack .
