Today I went back to school. To my horror. We had those tiddly orange seats. I wrote a letter to Kim.

There was a film on TV called Splash it was very good. [Still love that film!] Mind you I have seen it before. Some people came to look at the our house.

Oh, this is so cute - I wish I had my diaries from when I was a kid. I have no idea what happened to them:( Now, I really want to watch Splash again.
ReplyDeleteI would never say no to Splash! My other childhood diaries are not nearly so entertaining as this one. I'm having such a hoot reliving 1988 :)
DeleteLove the totally unexpected pieces of information, like "I fell over." :)
ReplyDeleteSlightly afraid to ask, but too curious not to - what is a willie warmer?
Ha ha! Hilde, I fear it is exactly what you think! It's a bit like a tubular sock, only smaller, and there would have been no point in me giving one to my mum...if that helps! :)
DeleteI have just spluttered my breakfast all over the computer after reading your comments about the willie warmer! It's true - you are a genius!
ReplyDeleteYes, but I didn't specify whether it was too large or too small. Dad claims too small!
