      <title>Tales of the Pinkie: the first girl to have her say</title>
      <description>As far as I know I am the youngest Pinkie ever to join. I was 19 at the time, just off the plane from Finland. Being so young also means that I wasn't even born when Mark Bunyan and the late Brian Kennedy formed the Pink Singers in May 1983. Nathalina gives us a very personal view on what it was like being a teenager in the Pinkies.</description>
