Waiting in the Long Grass

For years the Princess has been hounding us to buy her a left handed pair of scissors. We haven’t. Not because we are cruel heartless monsters but because we kept forgetting. Eventually, she bought her own and waved them reproachfully at us. The other evening, I wanted to cut something and the only pair of scissors I could find was the left handed pair. Quite awkward for a right handed person to use. I’m sorry now.
