I'm a bit stuck. Wee man (nearly 6) needs a fancy dress costume for next week. He needs to be an historical figure. Obviously Hitler, Chairman Mao, Jessie Owens etc are all forbidden by the missus. Anyone got any helpful suggestions? I thought maybe Neil Armstrong but I bet all the boys will be dressed as him :(. Abe Lincoln maybe, but that might get expensive.
