A VERY interesting mystery. There could of course be an innocent explanation, illness holiday etc. But I wonder?

I think perhaps CKB has found some resources for her story elsewhere, Redroger, as this site has been a little tricky.

Assuming that the request was genuine.

Oh yes, assuming she was genuine.

I think her silence was leading us to believe that maybe she wasn't genuine, but I'm just suggesting she might have posted in perfectly good faith, and found us all (absolutely legitimately, I may add) a little tricky.   ;)

Yes, And me too Coombs. I think if we started a men only thread it would soon be hijacked out of existence.

I think that as well. I am doubtful if the OP is genuine now if she gives no clue to the magazine.
