Oooh, another.
Our kid has always been the more patient, level-headed brother out of the two of us, and when it comes to retaliation, he's usually the one who does the thing that no-one expects, yet is the most effective.

Like the time a particularly racist lad started giving me and our kid some grief playing football - verbal taunts, leaving the foot in after a tackle, that kind of thing.

Now, at the time, I was only 10, which made my bro 8, and this lad was probably 12-13, so the difference in size between this lad and my bro would have been quite noticeable.

Even more noticeable when, after the big lad slide tackles me and leaves me flat-out on the floor in agony, my bro legs it across the pitch and slams the big fella right in the face, knocking him to the floor.

I was out for the count, leg firmly at right angles to the rest of my body, but apparently it was poetry in motion.

I'll always be proud of my bro for that.
