This photo only came to light after my mum died last year. Why she never showed it to me I'll never know but I have it now, and it has become a firm favourite. I think I must be about three and a half years old and it was probably the first studio picture of me. That skirt saw me through most of junior school too by being let down every year and doing away with the straps. My mother was decidely tight with money, never throwing anything away if it had even a week of life left in it. Comes of living through the war and rationing I suppose.
