[MB] Modesty feature in Crikey! magazine

[Helen Evans]

Hi everyone
Exciting news - the editor of Crikey! magazine has shared with us a
preview of the next issue's cover - the March issue features a brand
new interview with Romero, and has Modesty on the cover!
You can view the cover here:
http://modestyblaisebooks.com/news.html
and check out Crikey! magazine here:
http://www.crikeyuk.co.uk/index.html
The editor is off to Barcelona to interview Romero personally. Can't
wait for the issue to come out!

Also, for those of you who use Firefox as your browser, I've just
discovered that the default settings in Firefox seem to be to NOT
check for new versions of a web page each time the page is loaded, so
if you go to my site and can't see the latest news, you have to hit
your 'refresh' button (unfortunately, you have to do this for each and
every page). I'm still looking into a workaround. Internet Explorer
seems to look for newer versions automatically, so if you're using
this you shouldn't have any problems.

And here's a strange reference to Modesty Blaise I came across, but I
can't figure out how this actually relates to Modesty! (Although good
to know she's still making headlines.)

The Crikey cover was really nice! But the poor girls in the fashion
blog, havent they got mothers who can feed them? Modesty could have
tipped them over with a feather (sorry, that's a Swedish expression, I
hope it translates ok :)

We have the same expression, Anna.
And yes, it's sad how emaciated models still are -- I heard there was
an attempt recently to bring in some kind of minimum Body Mass Index
to the fashion modelling industry, but although Americans were open to
the idea, the Italians and French laughed it out of room.

Although this topic does remind me that my one chief criticism of
Romero's Modesty is that someone who grew up malnutritioned would not
likely have turned out so, er, buxom - she'd likely have been a lot
skinnier!

So can anyone figure out what the Modesty connection is with those photos???
