I'd say that sadness, drama and angst go hand in hand. There is not a big difference.

Oi missy, i wasn't stuck in a caravan in Cornwall, I was residing in a luxury holiday home in the south west of England, enjoying this bloody goo book I might add. Home now, trying to persuade my kids to have an afternoon nap so I can keep reading as I'm only at the mid way point and I NEED to read more now!!!
