My life is ruled by children's literature



I was definitely sitting next to one of Roald Dahl's witches on the bus just now. She had long white blonde hair, was about 60 maybe, and was very willowy and beautiful. Her lips were a dark matt red and collagen-swollen, and she wore exactly the outfit that the head witch wears in Quentin Blake's pictures - all black and figure-hugging, but with a furry hooded coat too. She had gloves to cover her talons.
