[4] When the publishing household was residing in 49 Industrial Street, Todmorden, Lancashire / Yorkshire (it is a county/aka shire border town which has suffered from an identity crisis due to constantly changed borders – think back to the War of the Roses). [5] Used then current Rhennish terminology: Rhiannë [5], later Aristasian terminology: Rayapurh (Sun City), Abolan.

Issue 2 also includes the first publicised story Enter Amelia Bingham by Jenny Falconer.
(A collection of Amelia Bingham stories were available to purchase alongside GAY GIRL and Artemis, issue 7, Christmas 1984. Later published in a book by Miss Artemis Oakgrove who owns Lace Publications, Denver, Colorado, U.S.A. I drew the pen Art Deco styled front cover, the printed books arrived to much excitement in the Burtonport household. My illustration was published in The Spectator on 24th December 1988 for an article A Romantic Manifesto by Miss Lucinda Tyrrell ( a pseudonym / pen name / nom de plume of Sister Angelina). [6] Enter Amelia Bingham by Geneviève Falconer and the Silver Vixen published by Blonde Bombshell Books http://sundaughterpress.com/enter-amelia-bingham/ and Enter Amelia Bingham: The First Lady Of British Crime (6th March 2009) on Amazon).
This is a foreshadowing of the formation of St. Bride’s School for adult schoolgirl roleplay. It was Mary Scarlett / Guillermin (legal names) and the person known as Jennifer / Sister Angelina / Miss Priscilla Langridge who discovered a Mommy & daughter relationship (folie à deux), enjoyed school teacher & school girl role play with corporal discipline.
