What?
You mean every family doesn't do that?!

oh
I wear a paper bag because my family force me to. I am not sure that rule applies to other familes though?

of course
it was only when I was nine I figured out how to cut holes in it for my eyes and mouth, though :(

'EYEHOLES ARE FOR CHEATERS!'
As my pleasant father used to say.

it's not
when you try and cut the eyeholes whilst still wearing the bag.
To keep from blinding yourself is a challenge worthy of the Krypton Factor.

Oh tell me about it
I gave myself a Chelsea smile trying to cut a hole to breath once. I laugh about it now. Then I invariably wince though.

I once
wanted to breathe and so decided that if I used a substitute bag over my head whilst cutting the whole in the paper one, no one would notice.

...pity it was a plastic one. Still, it's one for the family photo album!

I too
have an embarassing snap in the family photo album where I have my crimson oxygen deprived head in my hands...

Pity I was auto-asphyxiating myself for kicks at the time when my mum burst in brandishing a camera though.

Dad also used to say...
That 'paper mouth holes are gloryholes' but I never really knew what he meant and he only told my sisters.

*bemused*
