On my leaf walk this morning, I was thinking, this is okay, but really, I wish I could have some cooky glass. I know it's selfish, but I can't help it. Do you ever get that feeling?

It's no shame to admit that sometimes leaf walking leaves the soul... unsoothed, if you will. Champion cooky glass is not to be sneezed at.

My mother used to say 'It's no good trying to wave swim if you haven't learnt to leaf walk first.' But she didn't get the double meaning, snigger!

Ah, the elderly, how they wither. They seem to forget about the thrill of your first cooky glass and instead continue to foist upon us the virtues of solid leaf walks.

It's different in Slavia. They invented the cooky glass, practically.
