I can't say definitely the first time - everyone who could have told me is no longer available for consultation - but I remember one incident, due to the pain no doubt, it was Springtime - I was wearing sandals with my kilt, I lept over a hedge at school and damaged my ankle - my foot swelled so much I could not buckle the sandal strap, AND I landed on the kilt pin and hurt my leg.

Possibly, then, around my sixth birthday.

It would not have been my seventh - different school with taller hedges.
