The most interesting part of working for Atomage is the people one meets. Almost without exception I have found them to be charming, courteous, cultivated and highly intelligent; far more so than most of the folk I meet in the course of my other daily work. And this remark applies to the ladies as well as the men. Of course, you will appreciate I have met more males than females, because of the male ‘penchant’ for our materials. I am inclined to think that their very sensitivity creates this very penchant for certain things and objects which are then related to their sexual drive.

Our ineffable, irrepressible columnist, seen opposite “dressed for an English summer’s day in the country”, demanded extra space in this issue to publish some of the interesting letters from her post bag, many from her own sex. Goodness knows what would have happened to our typing if we had said no! Continue reading “Helen Henley Atomage A5 Edition 20”

Helen Henley has the unenviable job of translating our scribble into a form which our long suffering printer can read and understand. Apart from constantly criticising our grammar and spelling she is always complaining that we never really give the female point of view or encourage our female readers to write in with their views. She seemed to have a point and to shut her up we have given her these pages with complete freedom to express her own views, select her own items and photographs. Anyone who wants to write to her – male or female – or submit photographs or ideas should do so direct to her c/o this office. Don’t bother us, except to write to ask when we are going to sack her.
