Short Shrift...

Tea is on the go and I am sat at the kitchen table reading a magazine. The boy enters.

'God it's hot in here. What time's tea?'
'Tea's about 20 minutes and it's hot in here because I was cold when I got in from cycling home so I turned the heating up.'
'But it's not really that cold out...'
'It is if you're only wearing shorts down below.'
'But it's still practically winter. What sort of idiot would only wear shorts down below in winter?'

I stand up to attend to the cooker and display my short-clad legs. The Boy smiles.
'Ahh... That sort of idiot!'
