My mum used to tell me that when she brought me home from the Hospital on the bus ( this was Scotland in the 50,s no one we knew owned a car) She had to walk the 2 blocks from the bus stop to the house in one of the worst April showers she had ever been caught in. I always thought it an appropriate name to use seeing as I was brought out into the world during said showers. By the way my mother,now 84 bought me my first wig (over 40 years ago) and was the first person I ever told. She has a photo of me taken the first time I ever went out dressed and used to ask people who came over to the house if they would like to see a picture of her other daughter....I love my mum.
