Letter to a friend who recently moved from her beloved home town to a place called London and who is still being bothered by her horrible ex-boyfriend

Lovely, lovely girl,

Stop torturing yourself, how much does thee have going for her? Let me count the ways..... And who is this Xxx person that you are thinking about and worrying about in the grand scheme of things? He is NOBODY that's who and I know that it's difficult when you have to let go of someone but let us remember the Green One, You see how you can think about him and be totally fine now? And that is the way it is going to be with Xxx eventually, but your life has moved on from him really, not the other way around, he is still where he has been all this time and it's YOU who have moved away to discover greatness in the big city, he's probably gone out and found someone to hang out with to try and forget about you who has left a gaping hole in his life!

I know it's hard living in a new place after leaving somewhere you love as much as Manc Land, and you probably wonder every day if you made the right decision. I think you were very brave to move down to London, there are not many people who would give up a safe life in somewhere familiar to find out if there's something better out there for them and for these people life usually rewards with tremendously exciting opportunities. Think of yourself as the person who left the pop band first, the person who is brave enough to leave first is ALWAYS the most succesful because they are smart enough to take a chance on something bigger.

Yes, you are ROBBIE WILLIAMS! (I fear I am Gary Barlow, or maybe even Jason Orange.....)

Now I want you to smile that blinding smile of yours, the one that lights up your eyes and makes your whole face seem like summer and forget about Xxx, think about all the reasons you walked away from Manc and all the AMAZING things London has to offer, I'll see you in just a couple of weeks time for bright lights on the big city.

LOADS of love,

Me
