This cute thing in a dress
is actually Kevin at age one. You will notice the
hairline is similar to that now. Other points to note are that he is shoeless. Never was much good at keeping those damned things on his feet very long. My guess is that Dad took this photo, while persuading Mum to have a teddy or something out of shot to keep me occupied. Ever a quiet child, I behaved impeccably in cars,
content to gaze out of the window at everything happening
around me. Of course, there was more countryside then,
and fewer cars.... I also just noticed how huge my ears were. |

Here I am about 3 years old. Look at all
that lovely hair! Brown it was. And look at his little smile! What a little angel! Hang on - he's only got one shoe on. We obviously didn't beat him hard enough. Maybe if we nailed the shoe on? Just a minute - his sock is half off, too! This child, if not treated properly, will become a hippy. |

Aahhh. Here he is at school, what a
delightfully studious child. He is reading "Peter
and Susan Go To Town". We'd better make sure that he reads only appropriate material. Be certain he reads books which will be banned for being politically incorrect later on, such as "Noddy" and "Little Black Sambo". Great one that, about a little Black boy who gets chased by a tiger (or was it the other way round?) until the tiger turns to butter. Noddy, of course, was full of sexist stuff - only Tessie Bear ever got into the kitchen, and the gollywogs were vicious criminals, pursued by that lackey of imperialist, racist government, PC Plod. It didn't work. I'm not racist, not sexist, and the police are just the police. Oh, those enlighted times, when we did'nt worry that all kids would grow up with a distorted sense of reality just because they read something in a bleeding book. I could well be in trouble for that anti-PC statement. Like I care :) |
