And we had our crushes too!

Even as kids, we've all had our crushes... most girls actually think they can marry their dads when they grow up! And the boys love their Nursery teacher. I've studied in a geeky school with only female teachers, so having crushes on teachers or the boys around was almost out of the question. I did, however, have my part of fun too!

My first crush was Julian .. know who this is? the eldest boy in the Famous Five series!!! A fictional character! He was smart, tall, had golden hair and was "so responsible" - just the guy a young girl dreamed of!

Crush no. 2 was again a character from a book - Pete of The Three Investigators (Alfred Hitchcock)- again the tall, athletic one.

Crush no. 3 was the biggest crush of all - Ned Nickerson of the Nancy Drew series... in fact I remember going to the library and choosing Nancy Drew books - but only those which had Ned Nickerson in it. I actually stopped reading this series when Nancy breaks off with Ned - I was oh-so-heart-broken. Ned Nickerson was athletic, sporty, always there when Nancy needed him (meaning where some villianous bones had to broken or physical activity was involved) - and most of all - he drove a sports car!
