I pulled a pair of white translucent rubber knickers up over my nappy as my Aunt removed my underpants from my case. Thankfully she allowed me to wear my own clothes. With a wry smile on her face and a pair of big scissors in her hand, my aunt cut my underpants one pair at a time into several pieces before dropping every last scrap of them into the waste paper basket. “Don’t look so worried William, we’ll get you some nice new ones.” she grinned. The fluffy bulk of the nappy was ever-present as I hung my shirts & suit and placed my T-shirts, jumpers, and jeans in the drawers.
