One of the people going on the Iceland thing emailed round. Am going to reply. But not yet.
Would it be weird... no, I know it would be weird of me, but is it forgivable, is it in fact a reasonable idea, to ask the people on this thing to call me by a different name than the one I normally use? And if I did... I would probably lie and tell them it was my usual nickname instead of explaining that I'm constructing a persona somewhat more suitable for a month of camping and conservation than my current.
I'm thinking Beth.
But if I go too far with it the whole thing could get schizophrenic, and that would be bad.

And it's bad that my first reference for Fireman Sam is currently that sgwun ep, isn't it?

I never noticed it at the time, but now I look back, GOOD GOD, so many of my childhood idols were totally gay - Penny Morris from Fireman Sam, George from the Famous Five...

George is the classic dykey kid's character, isn't she? But Anne was so timid and girly and sensible and not at all the sort of character to particularly appeal to any girl reading those sorts of books. Of course, there's the difference in era to remember, but... yeah.
