A beautifully scrapped image Rose-Marie and fascinating information on the history of that saying. I recall my grandmother saying it to me when I was a young girl, my hair was very long, as was hers. She remained entrenched in Victorian values and clothing style until her death. A gorgeous page and layout my friend x
