i'm soon to be another embarrassing memory

it's an exciting time. this weekend i travel off to mummy and daddy cowboy's eastern town-house to take part in that event that we all know and cherish... the official family photograph.

i'm so happy.

actually it'll be quite fun... compared to the last one, which was taken about 15 years ago. back when mr. & mrs. cowboy decided on what clothing the little cowboys and girl should wear. ah, those were the days.

back when paisley patterns were the norm.
back when trousers weren't meant to hang below the ankles.
back when side-parted hair prevented the grandparents getting too confused.
back when skin was afresh and lacked experience.
back when i had no more influences or life experiences than your average mop.
back when my waist was still waist high.

but at least i won't look back on this one and think i looked like a twat.

unless i pull a funny face.
