    Kanga my best friend and also how she resembles my mother

    Most of my articles were recently about mourning the death of a loved one, me mentioning about my mother and then the death of my truest bestie best friend the late lady Dale kanga tryon.

    I remember shortly after her death Journalist like Nigel Dempster, Glenys Roberts wrote about her in most horrific way. My fashion queen of my heart was not in a loveless marriage she and lord Tryon loved each other truly, they gave each other affectionate nicknames kanga and Ant. Yes, it was him who nicknamed her kanga king Charles.

    Both Nigel Dempster and Glenys Roberts both said she met the the prince of wales in Australia in the1960’s, well they are all wrong. Because her brother and her children say other wise, that it was lord Tryon who introduced them.

    There happened to be a mishap between back in 1998 between a builder who claims to have loved Dale and had an affair with her and the actress Sarah Miles.

    Now i already know and Dale herself, well mostly her children know that Sarah Miles was not a friend of My best friend Kanga Tryon. Neither were the two daily mail journalist Nigel dempster and Glennys Roberts, neither where any of the sun or daily mail journalist friends of my Bestie Kanga Tryon.

    I mean my bestie like me always saw everyone as a friend, she was one of the most friendly, kindhearted and caring people i’ve ever met.

    Also i remember reading an old daily mail article written by Glennys Roberts headlined what royal secrets will kanga take to her grave? and in there Roberts writes about dale resembling Diana, no, no, Dale Tryon Kanga my dearest aussie friend did not resemble Diana at all, Dale was not like Diana at all she was in a loving marriage.

    Lord Tryon never remarried after losing his precious Australian jewel, the precious australian jewel i forever keep in my heart. People on the internet those internet commentors always make up fantasy, thinking Kanga Tryon was public property. She wasn’t she wasn’t even famous, maybe visible yes but never famous.

    About Kanga’s resemblance, Glennys Robert was wrong to say she resembled Diana the late princess of wales,Kanga resembles my mother. Both were funny, kind, caring, had this zest for life. I miss them both and i always hold them both close in my heart.

    I love my Australian side and jewel, the fashion queen of my heart.

  • The Hierling

    Alina Zainab

    A 1973 movie directed by Alan Bridges and starring sarah miles as lady Franklin, but how big of an impact did sarah miles make.

    Whilst watching the movie, i would always make sure to notes on every movie i watch, whether its a new one that just came out or an old one, like this one, now why i came across Sarah miles she once made an appearance in the 2008 documentary prince Charles other mistress. She claimed to be a close best friend of my beloved, darling designer favourite fashion designer, but some of her lines shows she did not truly understand her Like kanga live of riley which kanga’s life was opposite of easy and uncomfortable, or when kanga told her to follow the police van she just stood there clueless, i would have followed the police van and make sure to bail her out of jail.

    Back to the Hierling what does hierling mean? well the word hierling mean a person to do menial work. Which if you watch the movie, you understand why.

    So Lady Franklin (Sarah Miles) lost her husband and due to her loss, she developed and was diagnosed with depression, the movie starts off with Lady Franklin getting released out of a psychiatric hospital.

    She then returns to her mother, where we see the first breakdown, no i can see why she won an award, for breaking down very well as i first saw in the 2008 documentary prince charles other mistress, gosh, sarah miles is really good at playing people who break down easily and look lost.

    inreality she was really that person that always looked lost and bonkers, for drinking her own urine. A fan of her said they met her he did say bit bonkers but lovely person, well not that lovely if she can sit in a documentary that showed she wasn’t a good friend for Lady Dale Tryon Kanga.

    But even then on a documentary that was far from factual more exploitive she acted like it was a movie, which wasn’t and she hardly talks about Kanga and Kanga’s husband or children don’t even seem to have a close friendship and bond with Sarah miles.

    On the other hand, i do think the Hierling seemed quite the movie that capture mental health mainly depression, yes it is true that Sarah Miles captured looking quite lost and often breaking down, as she in interviews mentioned her being different to others from a young age, which she comes across as bonkers and feeling lost.

  • Sophie’s choice

    Alina Zainab

    End of January read and book review.

    As January 2025 comes to an end here is one main book i can not forget and it is the book written by William STyron that was adapted into a movie starring Meryl Streep. As i come to finish this on Friday 31st january 2025, i bookmarked chapter 4 as i was planning to use chapter 4 as a monologue to practice my acting.

    What was my favorite part of reading Sophie’s Choice?

    My favorite part of Sophie’s choice was on page 231 this was in chapter 8, where Stingo watches Sophie every move and at the end of pg 231 mentions ‘I was still moronically in love with her.’ This line just shows how much Stingo yearned for Sophie but the question arose for me but probably for many readers who would Sophie choose, is it Nathan or Stingo?

    What where my thoughts on Nathan and sophie’s relationship?

    To be honest as Stingo explains the three of them became best friends, and Nathan ha done many good for Sophie, like looking after her, and making sure she eaten,drink and slept well. Yes they will have their naughty moments. Though Stingo being very much in love with Sophie preferred Sophie chooses him over Nathan, i do have feeling sophie and stingo could have also worked out well.

    Who would you recommend this book?

    I would recommend this book to anyone who is alover of classical romance set during the late 1940s and flashbacks on Auschwitz, this may not exactly be for young adult readers but anyone interested in romance this would be the first book i recommend to read. STryon has away of just imagining you in either sophies or Stingos position.
