I am one of 3 sisters.
One in England, myself in Wales, one in Northern Ireland.

When we do get to see each other we really appreciate the time we spend together. When we grew up together in the same house we used to make fun out of fancy dress games because we had a big box of clothes from our mum's sewing hobby.

But now as adults, dear reader, childhood is coming back to bite us.

When we used to make fun of English sister for being a tomboy character in every imaginary game, how were we to know that she'd come out as a masculine lesbian? Tattooed and pierced with a very fit girlfriend!

And when we made fun of Northern Irish sister for having leprechaun wear as a fancy dress favourite , little did we imagine that she'd only make it to 5'0" tall and pick up a strong Belfast twang?

I wonder whats in store for me?

Well, did you ever wear oversized wellies
and hang around sheep?

Nope
But I was called 'tinkerbell' and also only made it to 5'0" tall as well.

I should have opted for Jolly Green Giant.
