Name: Ruth
Age: 33
Occupation: Teacher of English
From: Birmingham
Object: Milk
Story: I used to sneak a cup of milk out of the kitchen at home when I was a tiddler, and conduct ‘experiments’ on it – largely this involved leaving it in the garden for a couple of days and being amazed that it turned into something vaguely resembling lumpy yoghurt. I wasn’t brave enough to eat it though. Even I had limits.
