Rôle models

Thursday's children's library event at Umpty Library was a visit by "Harry and his Box of Spiders." We put posters up advertising "Harry and his Box of Spiders." And sure enough, parents and carers brought their children in to see "Harry and his Box of Spiders." The kids loved it. What marred things a bit was when Harry took some of the spiders out of his box and some of the grown-ups literally ran screaming from the room.

They must have thought they were going to see some boxes. Perhaps from a place called Spiders.

Frog was asked to investigate the health and safety risks involved in the incident.

"Round objects,"

was the stern reply.
