ANYONE READING THIS GO GET A now! A899760

terri, I do think this is one of my most ignored enteries, still relevent though! mainly to me but still relevent....

and I did remember thinking what an odd BBCi link that they'd choosen there!

YES! probably couldn't find much to say about poor old brum! Hurst St used to have a real comix shop back in the 70's, is it still there?

--owned by a friend of mine & his very wife, she insisted on calling their kid "Janus" & wondered why the poor soul got picked on at school!!!

(on to TM now, but zooming back to see if we're in the top 1000 yet!)

Well they should do! they've got a whole Pebble Mill based here! just down the road from me..

See you in TM... I don't think it's still there.. what's a comix shop then again it might be, lots of cool shops around there..

COMICS as in superman, tintin etc

--I'm now living in the comics capital of the world; quite ironic really; the husband from hell at the time of all this was really into comics!

(still there by the way, someone you definitely DON'T want to bump into, I'll tell you the horror stories by email if you're into gory D/s vanilla flavour. Definitely NON consense tho!!)

zdt

Oh right I see, i don't think it's still there, but there's Andromeda's which seems to be the main one, as well as somewhere on Smallbrooke Queensway, the name of which escapes me.. and somewhere on John Bright Street...

Think I'll skip the D/s vanilla stories.. though!!! unless you want to talk about it! not the kind of thing I'd normally choose to read for fun!

Andromeda! yes that's it!wow, still there, I heard he made a few bob out of it!

Yeah, the horror stories aren't nice, all I can say is it's taught me what to avoid!

So good, I'll stick them back in the closet where they belong (unless I can recycle them as fiction & make a few bob myself out of it!)

--not a horrid capitalist really, far from it; just exploring options.

zdt

Andromeda's owned by your ex husband from hell, small or what? or have I just got terribly confused.. it's not on Hurst street anymore though... sorry..

lots of people seem to sell there own horror stories without even saying that they're fiction, Dave Peltzer seemed to make a lot of money from it at least..

Can't say I;d think it was healthy though, there's not blotting out the past, which is good and not leaving it behind, which is bad, I think you need to tread a fine line bettween the two..

Yes, you're so right! One of the wisest things ever said to me was "You have EVERY right to be angry, what these people did to you was unforgiveable BUT don't give them the last word by letting it screw your life up NOW"

-- I can usually keep that in mind, except when I flip, then I just resort to the ingrained behaviour patterns of the kid cowering in the corner; even though it's a totally inapprpriate response now (thank god. or more likely .)

zdt

just realised no, the hubfrom hell doesn't own it , but his ex-mate did (may have sold it though)

--we'd better stop this before litigation looms!!

zdt

yes we better had do hadn't we!!! oddly enough when i was little I was completly convinced that Andromeda would make a perfect girls name...

as if it wouldn't be cursed enough!

Z

And remember that comment that someone said to you!!! it's one of the best I've ever heard as well about this subject... you really win by getting on with the rest of your life!
