    Why is it that you neverrealise how selfish you'rebeing about something untilit's actually spelt out to you?Take the way Ireated mymum f'rinstance ...Y'see Iwas alwaysnagging her for more pocketmoney and more clothes. Allmy mates s.eemed to have adifferent outfit every week,and Ihad to make do withmy big sister's hand-on."It's not fair," Iused tomoan to Mum," everyoneelse's got a new pair of bootsthis winter.".It never occurred to me towonder if she might wantsome clothes herself!Iremember one day mybest mate came rushinground to show me her newwinter coat. It was gorgeous,and Iooked a treat in it!When she'd gone Iushedin to Mum , frantic withenvy. "I need a coat, Mum,"I shouted, half crying. "Ilook like a tramp in myoIdone," Isobbed. "I'membarrassed to go' out in it!"O f course, she was reallyupset at my outburst."Look, love, it's not thateasy to make ends meet

    nowadays ... but I'll try mybest to get you a new coat."But that wasn't goodenough! Iwanted it at once!That night Iwent to bedearly ... in a huff. Nothingseemed fair. Inever lookedas good as my mates ... !Isoon fell asleep, butwoke up a little while laterwith a terrible thirst. It wasonly eleven o'clock. Idecided to nip downstairsfor a drink.Then, as Istood on thelanding Iheard a strangesound coming from theliving room. It wasMum - crying!"Listen, love," I heard Dad

    say. "You mustn't worryyourself. Tbings'll work outsoon. We've just got to bevery thrifty at the moment.""B-b-but, George,"sobbed Mum, "I just don'tknow how we're going tomanage. There are somany things to buy ... andKaren goes mad because shecan't buy tbe things shewants. I've promised her anew coat ... but where am Igoing to get the money ... ?"I'd heard enough. With alump in my throat as big as atennis ball, Icrept upstairsand back into bed.I could hardly sleep thatnight for worrying about

    Mum 'n' Dad .. .and forthinking how selfish I'd been.Next morning Iheepishlywent downstairs. When IawMum at the cooker. Irushedover and gave her a hug."Forget the coat, Mum," Isaid. "I'm fine the way Im."And you should've seenthe look on her face. It was

    worth a dozen new 'coats!She never asked what hadmade me change my mind- but, Ieckon she guessed.Still, I'm really glad Iwoke up on that night andoverheard what Idid ... 'Itreally brought me to mysenses, I promise you.

    THAT OLD .PROBLEMDear Valli, I'm sure you've hadlots and lots of letters with thesame problem - and that'sspots. Ido realise that theyprobably have something to dowith my age - I am 14 - butca n you tell me about any lotionsor creams that would help getrid of them?Iwould be very grate fu l as it'sa bit depressing and they don'texactly look lovely. '.

    Jane, Sheffield.

    Dear Jane, You're right, 1do get lots of letters from.readers about spots. And, ofcourse, they do have a lot todo with your age - but thatdoesn't mean you have toput up with them! Here erea coupLe oj tips to heLp you

    'PtdS~~~~~&tuNo beauty problem's too smaHjoT me to sortoutjor you. So, drop me a line ... You'lljeel- and look! - much better JOTit.keep them at bay.Obviously, you must alwaysmake sure that you keepyour face really clean andnever squeeze spots. Itwiltonly make them worse andpossibly leave a scar, too,b1lt to help a little try usingthis new treatment forspots ... It's caUed SwissBio-Faciai and itcosts 1.03. W e think it'spretty good.QIDCK SOLUTIONDear Valli, Please could you helpme. As I am still at school Icannot wear nail varnish. Sowhen Igo to wear it at weekendsit's all gone hard. Is thereanything I can do to keep itrunny? Karen, Glamorgaa,

    Dear Karen, Even if youwear nail varnish. al( thetime, this can happen-especially if you forget toscrew the top on tightly!The solution is to pour alittle naiL-varnish remOVTinto thenafl varnish, give ita good shake - and the1'eyou are with a nice runnyvarnish again. It .justcouldn't be easier.COLLAREDDear Valli, My hair just reachesthe bottom of my collar and theends curl up. Please could youtell me how to stop this. I'vetried brushing it straight but-itdoesn't seem to do any good.Would it help if Ihad it cut?Beverley. Berlin.

    Dear Beverley, You've hitthe nail right on the head!The way to keep your hairstraight is to have it cut, sothat it swings free Of yourcollar. It's probably only amatter Of having just overan inch or so cut oJf- whichwill do your hair the worldof good anyway!NIBBLERDear Valli, I have triedunsuccessfully to stop biting mynails and let them grow, but Ihave come to the conclusion thatperhaps false nails might be theanswer.Please could you tell me whereI could buy some and how muchthey would cost?

    A Desperate Pink Fan.Dear D.P.F., 1think you'reright - false nails wouldhelp. I know lots Of secretnail biters who hide theirhabit under false nails. Thisidea has the doubleadvantage oj keeping yournails out of biting reach, sothey have a chance togrow meantime!Evette do some reallygood false nails - cheaptoo! They cost 54p and youcan get them at aU branchesof Woolworth's. Perfectcamouflage for nibblers!

    SK IGYOUR WAY!ver get the [eeiui' that nothing exciting 01'different ever happens to you ... that you're'ust bursting to do something but you're not surewhat? Well, here's the first of anew series ojways to GETMOVIN' - toget you right outof that lTut! Sostop sitting. around feeLin'bored ... havea crack at someof our action-'packed ideas!the thrill of swiftlyswishing down a gorgeousblanket of snow, your skis almosthovering above the glisteningsurface, and the cool windrushing pas t yeur face. Soundstoo good to be true, doesn't it? .. .'specially when we don't evenlive in a ceuntry..of crispy snowslopes or glistening Alps likeAustria or Switzerland. But holden ... we've discovered a way tostretch yer legs and ski in thiscountry . . . and for a price that.with a bit of saving, we canafford too!Y'see all over the country skiclubs have discovered the nextbest thing to real snow - nylonsnow! No kidding!Sounds daft! Well that's netwhat Pink reader CatrinaWoodcllife (pictured far left) andher mates thought.

    "It's great fun," Catrina toldus, sliding down the nylonbristles for the sixth time atWatford Ski Scheel. And herfriend, Yasmin Archer, 1 4, said,"Iwas very nervous the first timeIcame and kept falling over. Butnow it's just great!"Isn't it dangerous?"Net really," said prettyChristina Zgorska, 15. "It's good ,to fal l ever without hurtingyourself ... well, not ,burtingyourself toe much, anyway.Those nylon bristles can be a bitprickly, tho'!"Christina thinks that skiinghelps to keep yeu fit. "Yourmuscles get better and youactually feel stronger," she said,as she held on to the ski tow toget back to the top of the slope.Ski instructor John Aitkin kindlyinvited all the girls over for a freesession, just so that us Pinkiescould see how it's done ,"Over 7 5 per cent of the peoplewho come here bave neverski'd on real snow," said John ,How does it compare to the realthing? "It's more difficult thansnow," claimed John, "but that'sgood, because it teacbes you tolook after yourself in the mostdifficult snow conditions."At a ski school a lesson

    could cost as much as 4 perhour, but it's a lot, lot cheaper ifyou join a club. Ski-schools havemushroomed all over the countryand it shouldn't be too hard tofind one quite near you.Use of skis, sticks' and bootsare all included in the cbarges,but if you're really keen, like 12-year-old Gillian Warren, you cankit yourself out with the full gear,tho' It's not exactly cheap. asGillian told us . "The skis can cost22, ski pants 5 , ski socks andpoles 4 each, but yeu only reallyneed that if you're going skiingen a mountain. Mest peoplecome here in jeans and use thescbool's equipment."After ten lessons instructorJohn reckons that you could skidown any mountain with safetyunder ins tru ctio n ... And that'snet bad gain'.

    Miss Cynthia Hardfellow, so itwas proclaimed in the localrag, was something of aunique specimen. "Not onesingle day of my eighty-fiveyears," she was quoted assaying, "have Ispent in bedwi th any sort of illness."Iwas fascinated ... 'cos,you see, ge rms seem to likeme. 1don't particularly likethem, but that doesn't stopthem. If there's a genn about,it will immediately attachitself to me, and next thing,there Iam with a runny noseand coughing like a steamengine! .

    So, naturally, I was keen todiscover Miss Hardfellow'ssecret. How come shemanaged to escape from allthose nasty little bugs thatplague my life? Iwould goalong to her house and findout.I phoned to make anappointment, but she seemedreluctant at first. In fact, shesaid 'no'. But after a certainamount of pleading and boot-licking on my part, shefinally gave in. Iwas over-joyed ... the secret of goodhealth was to be mine!So, round Iwent to MissHardfellow's house on theappointed day. I rang thedoorbell and was answeredthrough an intercom. I

    explained who I was, andthe door opened all by' itself.Iwent inside.Iound myself in a sort ofglass cage. The front doorslammed behind me, andsuddenly there was thisstrange hissing noise. A

    hideous smell filled the air... I was being gassed!Panic! Then Irecognised thesmell. Itwas disinfectant.YukiThere was a glassdoor in front of me. Itopened slowly, and Iescaped through it awayfrom the awful smell.Or so Ithought ... Butthe smell was every-where. The whole placestank of disinfectant!Suddenly, an old ladyappeared from a doorway, asurgical mask over her face -Miss Hardfellow!Icoughed - whichapparently was the wrongthing.to do, ICOS our Cynthiaimmediately panicked and

    rushed back through thedoorway.Iwaited ... and a fewminutes later the old girlreappeared, this time wearinga gas mask. Iheld my breath,willing myself not to coughagain.
