You haven't heard of the nit nurse? :shock: She used to come round the schools checking all the kids heads for nits. :lol:

They were posh in Manchester. Didn't get them, only Scousers remember her with her steel comb and a note telling your mum to buy some Lorexane. :oops:
 
You forget that I was brought up in Londinium.

We didn;t have a visit from a "nit nurse" either at prep school, or grammar school. :lol:

When we got the dreaded note my dad got his steel comb out. Then he'd spread the echo out on the table and plough furrows in your head with it.
The nits would fall out onto the paper and he'd squash them under his thumb nail.

I can still hear the crunch they made as they got "nailed", and feel the pain in me head. :lol: :lol:
