Banksia Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Originally posted by vhopkinson Hi there! Just wriiting a line to say "hello" to all I spoke to last year. I certainly had some fun with it all. Have not used the puter much due to some ill health in the family . I hope I can catch up with you all and continue to read all the interesting mail. Hello to Hazel and Kirby Owdlad and all the gang. I really missed reading all the news old and new. Best wishes to you all for 2005 Regards. V. Hopkinson Where in Oz are you V ?

Guest poppins Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Originally posted by Banksia Before I got my sixpence I had to show my new frilly underwear too. It was all innocenct and no one thought a thing bad about it. These days you would be arrested if you tried to look at a childs underwear. What a sad world we have created ! This is SO true, even an inocent person would get arested today for asking that, i never dared lift up my witsuntide dress as i probably had my mucky nickers on, Just Kidding !

I always have to laugh when thinking about my Mother insisting that I always wore clean under pants when I went out " just in case you get knocked down" They would have been in need of cleaning anyhow if I had got knocked over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazel Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 We were so poor that my underwear was always in need of repair anyway , So it's a good job I didn't get knocked down. I was very agile, so could have been a gymnast if my knickers had been the sort that could be shown the light of day. So one failed career down the drain.

hazel Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 banksia I wore bottle green, with a pocket, I went to the Convent School, Notre Dame. Straw hat too in the summer. We were too ladylike to do Games in our knickers so we had to wear dresses with splits up the side. (plus the green knickers with the holes in them ) Hazel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owdlad Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Hazel you've done it now! those straw hats and the green uniforms used to drive us mere mortals mad with passion when we were on our way up to Glossop Rd baths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
