Or what about your brother’s legendary NuClEaR-sTrEnGtH bOtToM BuRpS? Hang on. What’s that reek? Oh, it’s only Mum trying out her new

This meant the Stone Agers’ home could be moved from place to place as these nomadic people travelled far and wide to hunt or gather food. They could even leave the wooden poles and just take the skin covering, so they could travel light and return to that camp at a later date.
