a funny thing happened when i was walking to the train station on friday.

i was on my way to the exhibition opening all dolled up in 50s retro chic. i walked past a mum with two lil kids who were all staring at me in a manner that made me wonder if there was something seriously wrong with my appearance.

just as i passed the three, the lil kid started tugging away at his mum's sleeve and went:'mummy, mummy! is she a celebrity?'

cracked me up.

it sounded just like he had learned a new word and was hanging for an opportunity to use it in a sentence.
