pinstripes

"I remember meeting the man who was to become step-father - and later my "dad" as far as I am concerned - for the first time. I was underneath the ironing board at our neighbour Gladys' house when I saw a black shoed pinstriped pair of legs appear. I can vividly remember jumping onto his shoe and attaching myself to one of his legs. I can even remember how the material of the trousers felt slightly scratchy but soft at the same time on my face."
