When I was very young we lived by a graveyard....days were long and it seemed a safer time then. Me and my friends used to play in the graveyard for hours on end, as it was large and filled with trees and hiding places. I always belived that the glass stones that were on the very old graves as decoration, would burn your hands (told to me by my very clever mother) and so would never ever think of going any where near them. It wasn't til years later, I think sometime in my twenties (would you believe it!) that I realised it had just been a ploy by my parents to stop me playing with the 'pretty' stones!
