Make Poverty History

I am a kind, caring and generous person. I easliy get worked up into rants about the injustices of the world. I always do my bit. Which is why I'm a little confused about the fact I marked 'Make Poverty History' day in London by splurging out over £200 on three items of clothing - a beautiful skirt, a divine pair of shoes and a top. I'm even more puzzled by the fact that when I realised what I'd done I didn't even feel guilty but mildly amused in a naughty kind of way. Even stranger is the fact that Colin colluded in the purchase of these goods - I don't even have to hide the receipt. The world is changing. I'm scared.

i'm a guessing that a younger emma would have said the same about spending that sort of dosh on clothes.

perhaps like the widdy one you are having a change - she went from being a frumpy tory to being a frumpy tory with blonde hair
you are moving from the left to the right.
next you'll be telling us you watch celebrity love island.
(and if you do - please keep it to yourself!!)

As Shep says Widdecombe! Please, Pat! The only thing we have in common is the fact we're both female and me more visibly so.
I have twice been asked on the tube if I am a Swalala sister - the ones with curly hair (one was in Eastenders and the other has been in all kinds including ab fab - can't spell their surname).
