A fair time ago now, I was out in our local shopping centre, indulging in a bit of retail therapy, when I noticed a group of three or four young boys messing around and generally causing a bit of a nuisance.
My first thought was: “Why aren’t they in school?” This was a Friday afternoon and well within term time. My second thought was, of one of the boys: “I know that face!” It was Callum, my 10-year-old nephew.
