"Daddy?" Noah had stopped reading his book and was looking at me from his farm, "It's sad that Patrick Moore is dead isn't it." I answered that of course it was and that he had inspired a few generations into wanting to know more about the stars. Noah frowned and looked back at his book. There was nothing but the sound of Deal or No Deal in the background before he turned around again, this time a little more confused, "Daddy, who played James Bond in more films, Sean Connery or Patrick Moore?"
I spit my tea out laughing.
No, Noah, you're thinking about Roger Moore. I then proceeded to show him pictures of the two of them. I suppose both were a little before his time.
Don't worry, he'll soon get to grips with who's who. I remember when Papa Webb was young and he had huge difficulties trying to distinguish between Bungle and Grandad!
