Mr Curtis and winning a bar of soap - Jan 9 & 10 1975

This spread (which you can find in the My 1975 Diary 2025 Calendar, which is still on sale, and getting less and less useful by the day) has me drawing a new student teacher, Mr Curtis, who my drawing makes look about forty. I wonder if he ever saw this drawing, and if he would have been flattered. History, ie me, doesn't say. We also learn that Mark Vickery, who went on to be a professional golfer, won a bar of soap in a competition at Scouts.

My Records For The Day were classics by Status Quo and Kevin Johnson, both of which still sound good fifty years later.
