SingleGuyInOz: Funnily enough, there just so happened to be the old Superman television series screening on the telly... as well as a Japanese series called "Samurai" you may recall ?. But being a fan, i had even painted a helmet in Samurai colours and wore it whilst riding my little scooter around the streets as well
Believe me, it wasn't easy lying to Mum, but just found it so hard (and ashamed) to tell the truth in that situation... In fact later in life my Mum use to tell me i was too honest for my own good... i sometimes think i would of been better off if i did lie my way through life
Amen to that! But it takes great character to take the honest road, so good for you!
Too bad we can't post baby photos because it would be great fun to see little Ozzie in his superman cape.
Of course, then I might have to post one of me in my "Magicians Assistant" outfit. That was another duty I had as my brother's tortured pet. He fancied himself a magician and would have shows for the neighborhood kids in our basement. Naturally he needed and assistant so he had a head to put in the guillotine.

Glad to know your Brother didn't have a real guillotine at his disposal ... or did he ? ... . Makes me wonder if he knew about that old "Saw A Lady In Half" trick as well ?. In any case, i think you had a lucky escape there

I'm sure he was hoping to save enough allowance to cut me in half, but I think mom cut him off when she found out he was bilking the neighborhood kids out of their allowance money.
