Face of Norwich

Well I'm sad and I joined a contest in the Norwich Evening News to be ... the face of Norwich. I'm not sure how I would feel to be the face of Norwich, I mean do we really want to picture the face that would be the face of Norwich (insert all web-footed-inbred-bad-teeth-zombie-mildly-insane-lager-swilling-chav jokes here) -don't get me wrong I like Norwich but there could be a hive of zombies (do zombies live in hives? do zombies live?) in Chapelfield Gardens and no one would notice them if you just put a can of lager in their hand. Yes well I'm only doing it for the clothes - if I win I get a 250 pounds to spend in John Lewis, and a bunch of other stuff. To see my picture (taken yesterday in John Lewis - where Chris got me a lovely picnic basket as a graduation present!) go to the Face of Norwich. Be sure to check out some of my competition and see the true face of Norwich. Speaking of armies of the dead I finished Harry Potter - enjoyed it, but felt slightly terrorized by reading the book in public knowing that at any point someone could yell out the ending.- which no one did and I kind of figured out anyways but enjoyed none the less.

As far as FoN goes, there's a number of things that are immediately apparent.

a) There's a lot of girls gone down because their boyfriends Kevin told them to, and to put on as much make-up as possible. I'd say you're a shoo-in past these people.

b) There's a few people of around 35-40. They're unlikely to be FoN too, but could be a dark horse.

c) There's a fair few people who went for the 'posing like a fool' approach. Only the laughing dude in the baseball cap worked, but....

d) The face of Norwich HAS to be caucasian. Otherwise the world is a wrong place to live in.

So, I'd say there's probably 20-25 people who look human enough to be a threat to you, and I'd presume that they're nice enough (Shallow? Working on appearances? Moi?) that you could get on well with them.

Good luck for the rest of the contest.

Bleurg, what the hell are they all about? I mean, some of the forgot the smile? What, the face of norwich is either a frumpy looking girl of indeterminate 30s or a twelve year schoolgirl who wants to get picked up for glamour photos. Her in the blue is clearly thrusting far too much. Quite frankly Kate, you're a shoo in. Also, one of the more tragic things is that at least two of the bints on show are wearing the same t shirt. Some sort of fashion based in-breeding for the new century anyone?
