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.

FunnyPeculiar - we must be sisters - I also had the Audrey Hepburn comment when I had dark hair. Now more like AH's granny.
