that I never really knew about, but that were also shifted off to
another family. It just seemed everybody
in the family had this kind of attribute of being in transition
from one stage to another. ♪ When I'm five ♪ I will catch a butterfly
and eat it and I won't be sick... ♪ I think I'd realised that
the transitory nature of life was, erm... something that we all
had to deal with
