That's where I get off from our mutual wave and start surfing on my own (without Bobby H., thank you viddy much). It's not good enough for me, nor do I think it ever will be. Le sigh.  Bobby who? You know which Bobby!! Sir Robert Helpmann of the Lyrebirds and the Surfer Doll. GROAN.

Ahhh that Bobby ;D I'm still lost though. But never mind  I guess that I was not clear before. I wonder about his behavior at times - but I don't question their love for each other. Sometimes his way for her - I wonder. So I still think we are on the same wave  Why else read biographies about him - I do and will continue to - in order to know and understand more.

Noooo! I'm bound and determined to get you un-lost! (Why am I always losing people?) I can't believe I'm inflicting this video on the forum for the second time: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdfsLglal0oSee? I was elaborating on the whole "surfing" analogy---you and I were sharing a wave and then I swam off in search of another wave because we didn't feel the same towards SBT. I mentioned Bobby because of the Surfer Doll song and the fact that he creeps me out. It's a hard job, explaining one's analogies. Hee.  But now I'm back to share the wave with you! Let's buy a fancy surfboard!

As for this: I'm so new to being a Kate fan that I have no idea about this or what it means. I can only presume someone published a biography that told a whole lot of lies? That happened to Barbra Streisand within the past couple of years (another favourite of mine). It's pathetic. Perhaps someone could privately message me and tell me the book and author so I don't buy the book therefore giving them any royalties undeserved. You guys are awesome xx Jess No need for a PM! The latest addition to the tabloidy, novel-sized biographies on Kate is "Kate: The Woman Who Was Hepbun". It would serve more use as the lining for a bird cage. That is all. Stay clear of Leaming, Edwards and [although it contains delicious guilty-pleasure visuals for fangirls] Andersen.

HollywoodHepcat, thanks for the info and advice!
I'm admitedly one of those fans who is a sucker for good / different pictures!! But I will steer clear of those authors. I'll have to carry a little card with me at all times with the names printed on - in case I see any of those books at the local second hand bookstore and wonder "to have or have not"..
I can just see Spence if he were here screaming at that author "'Kate', you don't even KNOW her!" (Says me, calling Mr Tracy 'Spence' haha)

Amber, thanks again for the advice. The Barbara Leaming book is on Australian eBay at the moment. I would have considered bidding but I definately won't now! Does it even have any great pictures? It's $14.00 which isn't really expensive but I'd prefer not to buy if it's inaccurate and doesn't even have worthy Kate pics!!

Just.........................no. No.
And, no.
Unless you enjoy reading about venereal disease and abortions and a man-turned-woman who had secks with his/her father and then got pregnant (I made that last part up, but it just might as well be included with every other taboo mentioned in the book), I would spend that 14 dolla on Knowing Hepburn and Other Curious Experiences by James Prideaux. Have at it, friend.

Ok, so I am so sorry for not being around much. I am INCREDIBLY busy with college, it is nuts. But I just wanted to let everyone know that I am still alive and that I am not dead LOL. So just saying hello! Once I get more time I promise to be back on here ;D I'm just trying to sort my life out and make sure I get a job once I get out of school haha. Might be a good thing
