She really does have two sides to her as at home she likes to wear floaty, beautiful clothes, but nothing luridly patterned. Her laugh is ringing, especially after a few glasses of wine.

this .. isn't bad ..... but I have never been to a proper hairdresser in my life and so my idea of regular haircuts is lopping the straglier ends off with my desk scissors. So when I "scrub up" I tend to put my hair up. How I dress during the day depends on the type of office I am working in - but I am one of those people who find smart casual a strain so I find a formal office has its advantages.. but is true the clothing of choice is diametrically opposed to the "suited and booted" look ..I scour the sale bargain rails of the GHOST outlet store to find lovely gauzy garments that I can afford.... It is also true that I find it hard to maintain the pristine look... My shirts are coffee magnets and untuck themselves .. my natural state is possibly to look like I have been "dragged through a hedge backwards" despite my best efforts. And yes.... I never get drunk anymore... but a few glasses of wine, especially with a good meal and good friends is one of the great pleasures of life for me. another good strike (unless you have trawled back very thoroughly) is the hair ..... not true red but naturally "almost titian" (dark strawberry blonde - so bad tempered and stupid ) now alas synthetically reproduced, having acquired my first grey hairs at 17

My eysight is perpetually on the point of needing glasses - one eye is much stronger than the other becasue I never wore the ones Iwas prescribed as a child - but I got away with artificial tears last time (I do find VDU a strain) ...
