Way back when

Years ago, when the kids were at primary school, along with John, my doctor, whose children went there too, I was pressganged into helping out at the Autumn Fair. Ours was a fashion role, which even a cursory glance at our senses of style would show was ridiculous!

We became official hair crimpers, as the school uniform seemed to change to include crimped hair... except for boys who preferred hair of a Halloween green hue.

Whilst the shocking revelations of today would render such activities taboo, after successive successful years of applied crimpology, I'd gained a skillset ideal for 'brokenfingergate'....
