you know what I hated while growing up?
Curtains.
In particular, the ones in my bedroom. They were a deadly beige with enormous brown…
What are they called?
Paisleys?
Those swirly amoeba-blobs that make up a paisley pattern.
Dreadful-looking things with swollen heads and swirls that gave them arms and legs.
And because the window let in a draught – what we called “getting fresh air” in those days – the curtains swayed in and out, making it look like the paisley monsters were marching towards me as I lay in bed.
Every morning when I woke up, those damned curtains would wave at me, as much as I wished they wouldn’t.
It was always a relief to get up and leave the bedroom behind.
Speaking of which, I’ve got a brand-new, lovely little – or should that be weird and creepy? – bedtime story for Valentine’s Day for you over on YouTube.
Find out why it’s best not to peer too closely at your loved one while they sleep in “Love’s Curse,” right here!
