and she was right about there not being a bogeyman under the bed - when I finally looked there was just years of discarded toys and dust. |

I asked my Mum if we could have some of the pink fish in the shop (salmon) - she gave me salmon each time we had fish after that - which was cod with some pink food colouring added to the water. Just after the War we had rabbits and I was told father rabbit "Peter" went to Heaven, and I was about l8 before I was told we had eaten him. |

My mum used to make an apple pie and put some cloves in it. My Dad always got all the cloves on his plate. It became a family joke. I was in my 20's before my Mum told me she would serve it up and take everyone else's cloves out of their piece and put it on my Dad's plate. |

I got told I'd have curly hair too if I ate all my crusts - I'm 25 and it's still straight! (I have to tie it up wet or put it in rags to get even a hint of a wave.) |
