Photo interview by Roy Tersley from Janus 157 / Februs 37 with Natalie, also sometimes known as Andrea Spinks, Nadia or Pixie. Natalie, can you tell me a little about yourself? I am 21 years old, just about to finish my degree, at South East London University. The past three years have gone past very quickly and I have over that time changed considerably. My first week at University I spent in my bedroom as I was scared and too shy to venture out. Also, I didn’t really like the look of the people around me, so I thought I would stay in my bedroom. Since then I have met a tremendously large number of people, done a lot of new things and changed a lot. Are you in a relationship at the moment? No. I started university in a four year relationship that lasted midway into my second year. It’s over now. I have had a boyfriend since and had experiences with guys and girls since I have been at university but I currently don’t have a ...

From Janus 144 Just like a bad penny, young Natalie always seems to turn up within a short time of blotting her copybook. It is not so much another of those occurrences where she has put her foot in it, more a case of her bottom — and certain other body parts — getting in the way of her naive life. To be perfectly honest, Natalie’s life has become a bit of a mess, anyway. We didn’t actually send for her, she came to see us.

There is always an inclination to ignore the girl’s regular misdemeanours and allow that naive prettiness to dictate actions and influence objectivity. It had to be guarded against. So, what was the problem this time? ‘Well…’ Natalie began, somewhat h...

A photo-story preceded by the letter that triggered it. Letter from Janus 137 Natalie, Repeat Offender Dear sirs, I write to you to level some very serious charges against  Janus  and those who would claim to be the guardians of serious chastisement on your behalf. In the past we have had several repeat offenders receive their just deserts within the pages of the magazine (Nicola Redway being my all-time favourite). However we now come across a person who is so brazen that even Hillary Hanbury-Boyce cannot curtail her antics. Spank her, strap her, apply the wooden spoon to her bare bottom. Punishments by Ms Hanbury-Boyce, uncle, ‘the man in the grey suit’ and no doubt several of the editorial team do not seem to bring a solution to this girl’s behavioural problems. I refer of course to Natalie. She appeared in  issue 132  to do penance for a shoplifting expedition and then again in  issue 133  where she finally finds a benefactor willing to ...
