When l was a kid, my family always used to eat dinner together, no matter what. We'd wait for everyone to get home, and then we'd all sit down together. My parents never let us take food into another room to watch TV, and if the phone rang, my mom would have us tell the caller to call back later. During dinnertime conversation, everyone had a change to talk. Back then, l was a bit quieter than my siblings, so my dad would often ask me to talk about m dad. That was how we learned to share and take turns, so everyone got to join in.

speaking of taking turns, all of us kids used to take part in either preparing the meal or cleaning up. Sometimes my mom would let me help her in the kitchen-l'd wash and chop vegetables, or things like from the night before .............. no fast food take out.

This Jewel Tower and Westminster Hall are the only remaining vestiges of the old Place of Westminster. The tower was built in 1365 as a stronghold for Edward lll's treasure and today houses a fascinating exhibition, " Parliament past and Present", which relates the history of Parliament. The display on the upper floor is devoted to the history of the tower itself. The tower served as the Weight and Measures office from 1869 until 1938 and another small display relates to that era. Alongside are the remains of the moat and a medieval quay.
