I had a very interesting conversation with my four year old last night. He is apparently the resident expert on the diet of dragons. Which he says don’t exist, they used to… but they are dead now. Not sure what that means, but it makes perfect sense to him.
The following dialogue made perfect sense to him also:
Angus: “Yeah Dad, you know about dragons… got big teeth and have fire”
Dad: “Sure yes, I know about dragons. Dude do you know a lot about dragons?”
Angus: “Yup, I know lots about dragons… like what they eat”
Dad: “Cool, what do dragons eat then?”
Angus: “Well, dragons eat muesli Dad…”
Dad: “Oh, they do?”
Angus: “Yeah and rubbish…”
Dad: “Rubbish?”
Angus: “Yes Dad, rubbish. But you have to watch the young dragons they will run off with your rubbish bin and won’t play. The older ones are nice they will play and then eat your rubbish.”
Dad: “Great, I’ll remember that. What do they have for desert?”
Angus: “Shampoo”
So today’s hot tip is to watch out for those young dragons.

Haha! For a moment there, I thought young Angus was talking about our Welsh Rugby team. But I dont think they eat Muesli. Rubbish yes! Pies, chips, kebabs beer! Its a cool story though as kids have the best imagination! Take care!
