FAMOUS CHILDHOODS 5

Lulu

When I was young I used to climb on to the thin garden walls in front of peoples homes. I used to pretend the walls were tightropes. With hindsight it was quite dangerous, because I was only young, and the wall seemed quite high.

I did fall a couple of times but only scraped myself, and I did not suffer any bad injuries. I did love the danger factor, even at such a young age.
