And at least we know who you are addressing Frozendiva!

Awww haha! Love it. You're the only person who i've seen do that on here - nice touch.

Come to think of it, your username would be perfect for England today. I'm not that much of a diva, I hope, but I am bloody frozen!

I bet this appearance will only add about a dozen to the sales, grannies don't rush out and buy singles.

Nikolai, one of these days I'll do a post that can be addressed to... *anyone*. One of the 'you're so vain' types who'll think the post is about them. That'll work.

Oh I can be a diva. A pair of 5 inch heels and a hot outfit and I'm good to go.

How cold is it there anyway????

Frozen, there's a song somewhere in that opening paragraph of yours

It is ruddy bloody freezing here! It's nothing compared to those intensive Canuck winters, though. You'd probably consider this lovely and cosy and would be frolicking around in shorts...or one of those hot outfits

Nikolai, I do consider a temperature of around 0 to be quite lovely, thank you. I don't know about the shorts part. A lighter jacket, yes. I think I still didn't wear hose until mid-November here. I did see some leather ones in the shops here and figured I'd be a little er, old for them in terms of appropriateness.

My hot outfits are normally wasted except for a bunch of stares.

In the past few days I have received about 6 text from different friends in different offices where Radio 2 is playing, who know I love(d) the Manics, all to the effect of 'This song is just shite,' and I can only reply with 'Yeah, I know.'

I'm actually starting to despise this song now.

Frozen, you're never too old for a bit of leather! I love the stuff. Must confess that I don't own any leather pantyhose either though

I wouldn't worry yourself about those stares - most people are terrified of anything/one a little out of the usual. It's easier in somewhere like London, Berlin or maybe even New Orleans to be a bit alternative, but in some of the sleepier parts of Canada it must be one hell of a challenge!

I read a friend's facebook status the other day about covering up the radio aerial when the manics came on to try and stop it.

They were more leggings. Half leather, half fabric. I don't know if they were real leather. Thought they may crack in the cold.

Yeah, it's scary being a woman who can actually wear a nice, flattering outfit. And who washes her hair. I wouldn't say that I'm alternative. It would be nice to get an occasional 'hello' or something and not a catcall or stare.

Awww. It can be rather intimidating for guys to approach a girl like that/you, so don't be harsh on yourself about it. Maybe you should make the first move and say hello to some of these guys you see and like? It's 2010 and most fellas love an assertive woman.
