oh, has anyone ever told you you look just like.... (and it's not good...)

DELIA SMITH.

I mean, what????? How could she? I shouldn't have come into work today if I'd known someone was going to say something like that to me

And the worst thing is that someone else once told me this (about 10 years ago) and I've never got over it. She has always been a byword for 'eeugh' in my mum's book. So I've just been told (for the second time) that I look like someone who my mum has always said is revolting. Great.

Jeez. What can I do so that I look less like Delia bleedin' Smith?

Given that I have short dark hair and am just ordinary looking. And I'm 37.

I'm gutted. Really, quite seriously upset.

I used to get told that I looked like Samantha Janus

Then put weight on and I got fern britton

Now she has gotten thinner and I am still as fat as she used to be! PAH!

My heritage says I look like Drew Barrymore - I'll take that!

I remember doing one for DH ages ago and he came back as Dr Harold Shipman

I was once told I looked like Nana Mouskouri (which I don't, not even remotely). And that was supposed to be a chat-up line.

I got Ashley Tisdale too - am nothing like her!

I've also been told I look like Kimberly Walsh
Now, obviously she 's very pretty and everything but when added to my other lookalikey, Janine... I realise that I clearly have Forehead issues
