In 2008 my grandmother passed away. Whilst my parents were sorting through her stuff they found this article that she had kept. It is a letter I sent to Bunty magazine in 1985/86 bemoaning the fact that due to peer pressure I was being asked to give up playing with my dolls at ten years of age, and grow up too soon.
I just want to let ten year old me know that at 38 I still get to play with dolls, but now I make those dolls, and it makes me so happy.

I got £5.00 for that letter to boot!
