Memoires Of A Pommy Faux-Pas



As the British Autumn continues to pay homage to the highlands, It is the Aussies, it seems, who have unwittingly transpired light years ahead in the fashion files. Who’d have thought the students of Erinsborough High and Sumer Bay would seem so savvy in their stylish school dresses circa 2013 as the nineties remain influence supreme.

    Ahh the nineties, such fond memories of unsurpassed youthful awkwardness, I recall my ongoing incurable obsession with boy bands and (thinking back) distinctively un-cute celebrities from yesteryear (enter Con Bordino from the T.V show Heartbreak High-the shame!), My mother excitedly screeching to an entire supermarket of bemused shoppers, proudly declaring the news that her then severely mortified thirteen year old was officially becoming a women, but perhaps my personal highlight was undoubtedly what is now commonly referred to as ‘poo-on-shoe gate’ in which I unwittingly trampled a pile of gooey-fresh and particularly smelly dog mess round the school hallways, bewildered as to it’s both its origin and why with scrupled noses, my fellow students refused to sit within three feet the whole day. Tragic!
