“For years I was an undiagnosed anorexic, suffering from a little-known variant of the disease, where, freakishly, the appetite turns in on itself and demands more and more food, forcing the sufferer to gain several stones in weight and wear men's V-necked pullovers. My condition has stabilised now, but I can never stray too far from cocoa-based products and I keep a small cracknel-type candy in my brassiere at all times. Fortunately, I wear a 'D' cup so there is plenty of room for sweetmeats.” MenYearsLittlesI CanSufferingTurnsRoomsKnownConditionsProductsTypeDemandDiseaseGainsStonesWeightAll TimeCupsPlentyAppetiteCandySufferersAnorexicsCocoa Author:Victoria Wood

It is a world of contradictions: a time of harvest and plenty but also of cold and hardship. Here we dwell in the midst of life, but we know most keenly that all things must pass away and shrivel. Autumn turns the world from one thing into another. The year is seasoned and wise but not yet decrepit or senile.” KnowsWorldYearsSoulTurnsWiseDoorsOne ThingColdAll ThingsWinterPlentyFallenContradictionAutumnMidstHardshipHarvestPassing AwayMetamorphosisDecrepitSenileAll Things Must Pass Book:The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making Source: The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making
