First rude thing I ever sawOur Ginger Fuhrer's young life was scarred by the discovery of an end-of-the-pier 'What The Butler Saw' machine and a jazz mag shoved behind a toilet cistern. Tell us about the first time you realised that there was more to life than sweet shops and Friday night TV

Brings back memoriesOnly my mum's catalogue was from Grattan. When the new one came through the door, I was always very keen to flick through it. At first, I'd skip to the toy section straight away, but somewhere along the line the lingerie section become more satisfying.
It took me until my late teens to realise that the French-sounding word I'd heard bandied about and the girlie knicker section of the catalog were in any way related. Only ever having seen it written, I thought the word I'd seen written was pronounced to rhyme with "finger me". The word that sounded like "lanj-er-ay" must be something different, shurely?

Not just the nipples, but also the shadowy patches behind the lacy knicker panels, too.
