Parents can be cruel at times.......
According to the date on the back of this picture I must have been 6 at the time. It was dated November 1971 so I can only assume it was a Halloween picture - I don't think I dressed like that all the time. I'm the one on the right. I have no idea what that thing is on my head. Maybe this is where my fascination I have for putting things on my head came from. My mother says she has a picture of me with about 8 different hats on my head one on top of the other sleeping in bed. The other two in the picture are my cousins.
I posted this elsewhere and the comment was made about my cousin in the middle looking like he was in the Ku Klus Klan - well, I actually think he is meant to be a ghost.
