Nobody seems to like the new CockneyRebel. They all want the old CockneyRebel back. They ask what happened to the 1960s-type Mod (Swinger) who posted about Routemasters, non-stop. I feel that I've done something evil, by both becomming a Punker and putting the Routemaster to rest for a bit. When I say, for a bit, I'm talking about the Routemaster, not the first change. Why can't anybody find it in their hearts to accept me as I am, today?

I only joined here last month so I didn't know you before then, but I think you're cool how you are!
And I know what a pain in the arse it is for people not to accept you how you are, I get that a lot as well. You should be yourself though, that's the most important thing. As long as you are yourself and you're happy then it's OK. Everybody changes in their lives, sometimes it's temporary and sometimes it's permanant. But as long as you're still you then people should accept you as you are now. I have times where some of my obsessions are less important to me as others, or where I become more obsessed with something else. So you shouldn't feel bad about your Routemasters. It's OK to have a break from obsessions now and then.
