Lovely long hair.  I always wanted long hair.

I was going to post a picture of me when I was 7 - I had short hair, not by choice.  But I can't seem to edit it so it's the right width AND save it as a jpeg again.  It keeps wanting to save it as a psd file, which Rootschat doesn't allow.   :(

Mrs Lizzy, save it as a psd first, then save a copy of that as a jpg.  I promise it will work - we want to see you as a 7 year old!!  ;D

I can't find the pictures I want to post, so this one will have to do for now.
This was taken in 1979, by the Rhine in Germany.  That's me in the pink shirt, and my sister next to me, and my mum beside her...you can't see the clothes real well, but that's probably a good thing.  I remember that skirt at the time was my absolute favourite thing.  I believe that I would have been wearing green-and-orange trainers with this ensemble  :-[ :-[ :-[
