It is funny how we do create images of people based on the little bits of info we have! Through work I often speak to the same people regularly and have an image of what they look like: height, age, hair colour etc etc... occasionally we meet up and it is often a surprise to find out how wrong I was!
Love it ha ha ha!!! This is so true! I often wonder what "we" look like and of course have my mental images (some more mental than others!) I am of course sylph- like, tall and willowy as you could tell with a name redolent of the elegance of my"daughter namesake" in Monaco
Little old lady!! A few of us have met Greatnan at north-west meet-ups when she's been staying locally. She's a risk-taking mountaineer with a penchant for disappearing into brambles and skidding down slopes with no idea where she's going to end up!!
Just being nosey and see you do lots of posts Greatnan, I thought I would have a look at your profile and l looked at your very nice photos.
Isn't it strange and not to mention misleading how we see a name and draw a picture in our mind. My picture of yourself was small round lady maybe in rocking chair with knitting or embroidery in your lap. The epitome of what I suppose great grans are often portrayed. Sitting at home by the fireside only venturing out to the local shops.
How wrong I am, you are slim and glamorous and well travelled by the looks of things.
