Angela Jones

Girl With a View

BIRMINGHAM is famous as a manufacturing city, and it's a well-known fact that the gift you may buy in Singapore to bring home to your folks in Ipswich is just as likely to be made in Birmingham as anywhere. But don't think of Birmingham just for its exports spare a few moments to consider its girls, of whom blonde ANGELA JONES is typical. Angela models with a view of becoming the city's most famous export.

After all, what have the famous figures of Hollywood and the Continent got that Angela hasn't? At the moment, only extra minks, Cadillacs, pools and poodles.

Other than these materialistic extras-which are only a matter of having the lolly-Angela can match the talent and looks, which makes it certain that she can view her prospects with equanimity and confidence.

Time For Dreaming

Dreamy indeed is ANGELA JONES, popular young model from the Midlands. Angela is a busy model, but there is always time to dream. She can do it in between poses or when her boyfriend is talking soccer to her.

Whistful Thinking

Birmingham is not without its own imperishably noticeable dollies, one of whom is ANGELA JONES, a model.

Angela was full of wistful thinking when we photographed her.

She'd auditioned for a commercial in the West Indies. It was something to do with frozen vegetables having tropical allure at Sunday lunchtimes in Basingstoke.

Angela was waiting to hear whether she'd made it.

We hope so.

She'll look very tropical amid all the frozen veg on a hot beach.

What About Lunch?

The fact is we were so struck by ANGELA JONES when she came all the way down from Birmingham to see us that we thought we’d brighten up our corned beef salad by asking her to share it. Usually, lunch is just a time of the day for us when we consume our vittles with abstract indifference, but there are lunches and lunches.

There is nothing the addition of salt and pepper or salad dressing can do for a lunch that a girl like Angela can’t do better. Having Angela at the table would be like garnishing the whole meal with gay spice, because Angela, frankly or perhaps you can see this yourself? —is exciting, glamorous and exotic.

But Angela already had a date. What girl as exciting, glamorous and exotic as this wouldn’t? All we were left with was our unadorned table and our ungarnished salad. Pass the mustard, Bert.

Never mind. There’s always another day. Angela will pass our way again, no doubt, and this time we’ll take her off to our Bingo club.
