debris4spikeI know I am meant to be actually cleaning, but thought I would scan ina few pics ... these are all taken of me before the age of 11. Looking at the school pics it reminds me how much the bullying has really affected me - I hate having my picture taken, but here in these pictures I look relaxed.
5 months old
Aged 3 1/2 ... yes, that dress was red velvet
The Winter Uniform of the school I went to, aged 6
Summer Uniform of the same school -
Grandma and Granddad's 50th Wedding Anniversary (Mum's parents) .... Boxing Day ... I was 9 1/2
School leavers photo - just before I was 11 ... Weirdly I was already wearing glasses by now, so why I didn't wear them in the picture, I don't know.
More pictures to follow, as and when I get organised.

My grandmother had wallpaper back then, but it was small print. My mom never cared for wallpaper much. I do remember a swan print in the bathroom when I was younger.

That last picture was very typical of all Junior schools in that time. Love the harry Potter thought, though!
LOL - that wallpaper is great. We had similar all up the hall, staires and landing. Until I moved to this house I have always had wallpaper, even if plain in colour, just textured.

Yes, we had false wood pannelling on one wall of our dining room, and 2 of our kitchen!

Date: 2012-08-09 12:48 pm (UTC)They told you to take them off - because otherwise the flash caught them and all you got were two white blobs where your eyes should be. (They once forgot to tell my sister to do it and gave Mum the pictures for free because they felt they couldn't charge her for them.)
Ace pictures, by the way!
