Kirstie had no thumbs and would self consciously hide her hands inside the sleeves of her jumper. What did we call her? Fonzie. Heeeyyyyy.

In year 4 at primary school, we would be visited once a week by two ‘Special’ children from another school, and by way of a reciprication, about half a dozen of us were sent to their school to see their nativity play.

It was morbidly fascinating in its way, not least because the young lad playing one of the shepherds had two thumbs on each hand. As Tom Wood pointed out: “I bet he’s wicked at Sonic.”
