At school, I remember the sticky buds.

Our teacher at Our Lady of Mount Carmel and St Patrick’s school (they really were covering all the bases there) brought a range of twigs in and we lined up to feel how sticky they were. This one’s a Horse Chestnut.
I’ve just done it again and it was suitably life-affirming. Do try it if you can.
