These twenty-somethings had been friends forever; so there was nothing off subject, as you will see in their banter. They were also new London flat-owners, where they would cook, eat, drink and plan their men-chasing antics in each other's homes. Lots of soups, hangovers, cheese, chocolate and laughter. It was also the beginning of an exciting new era - the Internet had arrived - so 'The Soup Diaries' have evolved as a period piece stemming from these emails, that were amazingly preserved, between late 1999 to the Spring of 2000. My sister (Natalie in the book) had kept the collection, hoping that some one in their group would write it up and give them all a laugh. I eventually stole it away after she passed, to make sister's sometime 'dream' a reality. She had always wanted this life extract published, but even more, in true sister style, she wanted the movie made. She had selected the names of the stars who would play each of them and I give the characters in this book their movie star names for several reasons - but, mostly, to protect the innocent. (Insert LOL, as they learn in the script, is more than just lots of love!) If any of these actual stars - Natalie, Nicole, Andi, Cate, Brad, Tom - read and approve of the manuscript, have your people call my people. The actual movie would be great fun. To all who think that some of the past is worth preserving, however small a piece, you're right.
