Jonty is a bit like his dad - LOVES computer games. His favourite at the moment is Tarzan and Jane "Jungle Jump". Tarzan has to leap over waterfalls, catching swinging vines, dodge crocodiles, etc, all the while collecting diamonds for Jane. He gets about 5 lives then its "Game Over". The game isn't at all easy - I tried it and my highest score was 5000 which is quite appalling.
This morning Jonty was getting into it very seriously. All was going well, but one dastardly vine kept getting the better of him. He had played the game over and over, each time "dying" his final death at this same point. This time he had done well and saved all his lives up till this spot, but now Jonty was using up all Tarzan's lives trying to catch the swinging vine. He only had 2 "lives" left.
At this point Jonty flung his arms back, and bent his head forward, slumped over the desk in desperation, and muttered something furiously. Lots of sighs and so on.
"But, you've still got two lives left," I said encouragingly.
"I know MA, that's why I'm PRAYING!!!!" He got it with his next attempt a few seconds later.
