Infact I have something to say to this. Do you think I havent *tried* to
fit in with the townies? Do you think I didn't go through a horrible stage
of wearing tight clothes and dancing in friday night discos that played
horrible dance music, drinking alcopops that made my head spin? Waking up
in the morning with the sickening odour of ckone mixed with cigarette
smoke....I *longed* to be accepted by my peers, infact I still do, but I
want to be me. I still smell of cigarette smoke, only it's mixed with Coco
Channel these days.

Still, me and my townie friends, we still have things in common, like
watching Hollyoaks and snogging boys, only my taste in boys is rather
different to the degenerates they're seen hanging off. Saying that, they'd
probably choke on their Hooch if they saw Toby Titwank.

I do believe at the last picnic a few people were having a bit of a poke at
me, saying such things as "who would wear tights to a picnic" and implying
I wore too much make-up. A person should never be Off-Duty! and one must
make an effort for their art. So you think I'm so glamourous, it should be
illegal. Come on! Get your handcuffs out! Arrest me right now - I plead
GUILTY AS CHARGED!

Surely that is the best thing anyone has ever said about me. Of course you
only think that because you havent seen me (with the exception of Mark,
Vics and Kevan) the morning *after* an evening of gallavanting around. 

Otherwise in the world that is The House Of Scarlet, everything is pretty
magic. Good weekend, stayed away from the big smoke, and found a "passion
pink" fluffy angora jumper in oxfam to wear with a black leather skirt.
Yum! Watched 'If...' when I got in on saturday night, which is a stunning
film. Public school boys, eh? woof!
