Whenever you’re sad

just remember

Steve learned how to juggle from Clint

kath-ballantyne’s Nan can juggle oranges, one-handed, against the wall. When asked why, she just shrugs and says, “It was the War.”

I talked about it to an Australian lady who was in England during the War (she stopped to admire my knitting a few weeks back) and she shrugged and said, “Yeah, I did that too.”

So, during the War, it was generally normal behaviour to knit and to teach yourself to juggle when in bomb shelters.
