Now you see me...............

I know not what dredged up this long-forgotten episode from my childhood but I smiled when it flitted through my consciousness.

When I were but five or six, I was idly killing time by exploring my nan's dressing table in her bedroom when I came across a jar of Pond's Vanishing Cream. Having heard about the Invisible Man serial on our wireless, I liberally smeared it on all my visible parts and then went down to test it out. I was most disappointed when my nan and Aunty Phyll said "Hello Deri" and walked straight past me. Was I the only child to be taken in by this stuff?
