The Class - please would you brighten them up a bit
« on: Tuesday 14 September 10 08:31 BST (UK) »
I love this photo - I am trying to work out just why the teacher looks SO defeated about the whole thing!!!!   ;D ;D 
   
And I am trying to work out why that little girl in the front row is at school at all - she doesn't look old enough - it is grandmother Trix - again!   :-\   ::)   Was the teacher a relation who said, 'let her come', or is she older than she looks!!   ::)

Please would you weave your magic on this?

Cheers

They are great - thank you Joy and Alan!   Much brighter.    :)

I see what you mean KHP- the one to her left as we look at it could maybe be a sister, but as her nearest sister was ten years older, I don't think so. Do you reckon that girl is about 14??  I don't - - well I don't think so!   ::)
 Actually she seems to be holding on to each side of her!!   I think she should be home with Mum!!  :-\ (who may well have been out earning a living to keep the family together by this stage - if she is over three!!  she can't be too much over!!!   ;)
