Found this little note home to my mum from the headmistress of Queen Edith School, Cambridge [Miss J Johnson]
I was a snowflake in the Christmas show :)
My sister Lynsey and me :)
This is the wrapper from a Cadbury's picnic bar that I brought in the 1980's from the sweet shop on Adkins corner, Perne Road, Cambridge
Cambridge Evening News c.1986
haha, this is a terrible case of bad hair. I remember my mum cut my hair but I didn't like it so I cut it some more myself, then she tried to make the fringe better and told me off, so in my mood I ran upstairs and cut some of my eyelashes and eyebrows too! I remeber mum had to write a letter to my teacher Mr Hones to explian why my hair was such a mess but I read it on the way to school and was so embarrased that I shoved it in a bush on Gunhild Way just outside the school.
This is one of the paper bags from Heffers in Cambridge from the 1980's. I used to love that Heffers on Sidney Street. When I got birthday money I would go down the town and always go in Heffers. I'd go straight up to the first floor where there was lots of toys and nice things to see. I would nearly always buy some marbles and pretty stickers :)
