Witches and Judith from Tomorrows World
When at first school, it was tradition when practising handwriting to close up the gaps in the 'a's or 'g's because, according to the senile old bint-of-a-teacher and I quote "the witches will get out". I shit myself for years.

Also, twas tradition between me and my brother, when watching Tomorrows World in the early 80's, to SPIN AROUND REALLY FAST whenever Judith did her talky-talky bits. We didnt like her and this seemed like the perfect way to waste time until Maggie Philbin or the bloke got back on.

Thanks for reading the length, sorry about the girth.

Lies from a teacher
My infant school teacher Mrs Way-Rider told us if we didn't join up the line on our a's or o's then WITCHES WOULD COME OUT!!

Witches coming out of letters! ...tsk.

She would often walk the entire class to her house to look at her spoon collection...I'm guessing shes now dead.

my cat...
..is called Kooter after the cool mechanic from the Dukes. I need to get her a little cap with an extremely bent visor - any ideas?

Kooter was a runt, and is prone to bouts of severe madness. In which case I call her Twat.

Friend of mine had a grey fluffy cat called Fudge Tunnel, sadly now dead.
