On a busy day, you've got to dash from job to job, it's all very hectic. But basically, you've always got to have everything literally by the phone, be ready to leave at a moment's notice. But there's variety in it.

Making TV commercials has in fact now overtaken straightforward fashion as our favourite occupation. It's more fun than photographic work, where one split second decides whether you look nice or not. In a TV commerical, there's some acting involved, and you have to keep it up for a while, which is more of a challenge.

When Margaret said she kept everything by the phone, I wondered what she meant. Definitely your diary with a pen, waiting for that interview.

The every model has one arm longer than the other. Because of all the things she has cart around in her bag, spare pairs of shoes, make-up, spare tights and a book, it can get boring waiting around sometimes. I read such a lot of novels. Umm, everything but the kitchen sink, all has to be packed in.

Whatever her motivation, it's quite clear that Margaret enormously enjoys being a model. Yes, I love it. It's fantastic. I just couldn't think of doing anything else.

It's always been the glamour that attracted me. To begin with, it's real hard work to get established, but the variety and excitement of not knowing from one day to the next, what's going to happen has never ceased to give me a thrill.
