YOU'RE wrong! Herman's not playing at dressing up -although he does look a perfect clown! Believe it or not, Herman was trying to fight off a bad bout of flu, and as he and his Hermits were appearing in the Dusty package show he had to get rid of it as quickly as possible-otherwise all the other artistes on the show would be walking out on stage with handkerchiefs held to their noses. "I tried everything, tablets, medicine, even inhalants -you know, where you sit over a steaming bowl with a towel draped over your head. Felt a proper Herman, if you'll pardon the expression!" Herman being a quick-minded lad with a sense of humour thought that the best medicine was to be wrapped in something warm. As you can see, he found the largest sweater money could buy! "I traipsed all over town for this," said Herman, proudly holding up his sweater for all and sundry to gaze at. "It cost me twelve guineas, too. "Anyway, think of all the marvellous uses it will have like . . . like . . . well, I can't think straight off, but it will be great when the cold weather arrives!" Guess Herman's got the laugh on us with this one! |
