Teacher Lady,

I don't know if you're familiar with the classics but "The Sound Of Music" has provoked the longest and bitterest feud in my family since my sister jumped on my toe (admittedly because I'd tied her legs together)and cause internal bleeding in my little toe or when my little brother whacked me on the head with a board book.

There's a line in the film when Marta says "My name is Marta, it's my birthday on tuesday and I want a pink parasol" and my sister and my mum were convinced and still are convinced that she said "My name is Marta, it's my birthday on tuesday and I want a pink pair of socks"

Preposterous. Actually, I think you had to be there.

Sorry

Lizzie
