I knew of the Fashion Bella Freud (real name Isabella Defiden)(sp??) although I wouldn't be seen dead in her gear, & on principle never pay exhorbitant prices for "labels", and that's why our Bella first caught my eye. When I saw she was a troller, I thought what a clever choice of names it was - go to a place of supposedly "toeing the line" people discussing "state of the art" stuff & punk them out. I'm not too concerned about it one way or another either, most of the time. When a troller is clever & imaginative, they are a pleasure to have around as entertainment. I get crook at them when they get really longwinded in their insults and refuse to admit to things they have said that are usually still in print. Bella is extremely subtle & clever a lot of the time, posts some valid & worthwhile ontopic points more of the time now,& just another troll the rest of the time. I think CCC would be a better place without her. Just my opinions, Hi guys, Tina Long
