I cannot believe I am doing a post on this, but I must be the only person left on earth who never goes anywhere without a hankie! It definitely seems that way because trying to buy just normal, everyday hankies over here is near impossible… even Wal-Mart doesn’t have them! We eventually found some at the store where you can find anything that you can’t find anywhere else – the Vermont Country Store. Phew! It was getting to the stage where I was thinking of asking mum to go to Myer and find some Seward ones and send them over.
It was mum who actually got me into the hankie habit – back when I was in prep and I always had a little hankie put into my uniform pocket. Ever since then – I never go anywhere without one. But it seems this is now a rarity… especially over here where people are especially ‘thingy’ about germs but hankies are just so… handy! Back in the day and when I would be sick, I would instantly get one of dad’s huge hankies for comfort. I actually still have one of his here and keep it just for when I have a cold. Every other day though – just usual girly ones. I doubt they will ever come back in fashion but I am happy to always have mine on me and don’t mind knowing it is something I may have to stock up on to ensure I always have a steady supply.
I cannot believe I have just done a post on this…! #bringbackhankies!
