The Plastic Mancunian - Aged 12



I came across this old photo taken in October 1974. I had just turned 12 years old. As you can see, my wild hair was beginning to become self-aware. Sadly, it is now much darker and more fuzzy. Please don't laugh ...

Oh my gosh, PM...what a complete cutie!

I wouldn't describe your hair as "bad" at all. It reminds me of a basket of gold...that someone in some fairytale spun into thread...who was that anyway? And I do hope that sounded like the compliment that it was meant to be! Very attractive pic... :o)

Hi Holly,

Bear in mind that this was an "official" photo for the school and that my hair was supposed to have been combed. As I said it was becoming sentient.

As I said in "Bad Hair Day" women do tend to like my hair (for some reason) and they loved it when I was a child.

I'll have to dig out a picture of "The Mullet" - perhaps you won't be so kind then.

:-)

Cheers

PM
