Little Miss Muffet

BY MOTHER GOOSE

Little Miss Muffet 

Sat on a tuffet, 

Eating her curds and whey; 

Along came a spider, 

Who sat down beside her, 

And frightened Miss Muffet away.

I was wondering what I was doing the same year that Fred went to Mozambique, 1964; so 8 years old and at Oliver Lodge Primary School in Vanderbijlpark. 

This envelop, letter and an old photo sheds some light. 

I was Little Miss Muffet in the school play, something that I loved and I participated in  school plays during all my years at Primary and High School.

My Mom kept this letter from my teacher, Mrs. Joyce Mc Fadyen's  and I can see why, it would make any mother proud. 

The letter is a thank you note for 'the beautiful and useful Xmas present', the envelop though is a note to me, Miss Muffet, and thanks me 'for doing such lovely work.'

I had twelve really good years at school.
