How this writer's mind works (5)


I was sorting out some old family photos when I came across this:

I can’t remember anything about the occasion, which is probably just as well because I was told it was one of the most traumatic experiences of my young life.

But it did inspire Ho, Ho, Ho?  a little Christmas story that is published on Creative Frontiers today.
Enjoy!

Oh dear - I hope you've recovered from the traumatic experience!

I can't remember anything about it, but my mother told me I screamed the place down the moment after the photo was taken.

Thank you for sharing such a lovely story, Linda. I remember disliking our yearly primary school Father Christmas because every year without fail he would give me a plastic telephone. And every year it was a blue one!! I wonder what he was trying to tell me? Have a fantastic Christmas and I wish you continued success for the forthcoming year.
