Ten things I hated as a kid but love as an adult… 10. Buying stationery 9. Dark chocolate 8. Gherkins 7. Going to bed early 6. Naps 5. Wearing a coat 4. The end of school holidays 3. Getting vouchers for my birthday 2. Not being invited to parties 1. Being a kid
Today is Be a Kid Again Day but I’m not sure I’d want to be a kid again because for me it was often hard. For example, as a kid all I wanted was to be an astronaut, but when I shared that dream with my dad he shattered it with a single line. He said, “Son, the sky’s the limit.”

In Greek is: Σκάει ο τζίτζικας. Skai o jijikas. The cicaca is bursting.
Galician fishermen used to offer small fish to tourists as a welcome, which led to shameless tourists showing up asking for them. This is the origin of a Galician word for entitled tourists, usually from Madrid. The word is fodechinchos and I’d translate it as "mackerel-fuckers"
