We attended an options evening tonight at my daughter’s school.  The introductory talk had been given and we were enjoying the refreshments on offer – smoked salmon and cream cheese blinis, honeyed cocktail sausages all washed down by the obligatory glass of vino – when I commented that we would have to walk through the security sensors to go into the library where the staff was assembled.  “I wonder if I will affect them?” I mused, to which daughter glowered “you’d better not”.  We passed through without incident, and she disappeared off to speak with the relevant teachers about her subject choices.

So imagine her disgust and embarrassment as we left the event and suddenly the alarm went off, the red lights were flashing and everyone was looking at us!  Hurray, I’ve activated my very first security alert with my stimulator!!
