I was still hoping fairy tales were true. Not the ones I used to read to the children when they were small. Today's fairy tales bear no resemblance to the ones I used to tell, PC got in the way in recent years.
Anyway, parents like me used a lot of embellishment to tell a tale, anything to satisfy little ears before they finally nodded off and had to be carried up stairs to bed. Today's version of Goldilocks and the 3 bears, Little Red Riding Hood, Chicken Licken have all landed on the PC cutting room floor.
Last night I wanted a fairy tale and I wanted it to end like the ones I told the children, in favour of the good guys! But it wasn't to be Liverpool's football's night and I went off to bed sad!!
I have to disagree with the great football legend Bill Shankly who said that football is more important than life and death!!!
