My boss calls me Hetty Wainthrop. I can see what he means.

I can relate to that KatyK I would like to be Victoria Stillwell, in reality I am more Frank Spencer.

In my head I'm Marilyn Monroe. In reality I'm Calamity Jane. Someone once said to me 'oh dear, if it's going to happen, it's going to happen to you isn't it?' smile

If anyone annoys me I tend to go all 'Margot Leadbetter' from the good life.

But in real life I'm a lot more Felicity Kendall in welly boots and holey jumpers. grin

At work once I said I thought I was Victoria Wood and a colleague said ‘Oh no, you’re more like Mary Poppins.”

I hope this refererred to my ability to get things done and not to a general level of bossiness!

My ACs refer to DH and I as Howard and Hilda ( from Ever Decreasing Circles) We don't think we are like them, but who knows?

Day6 - I am often referred to as Hyacinth Bouquet by H and friends, nice to know I am not the only one.

Please do not get me started on the lavatory seat!!!

I have been called Hyacinth Bouquet by OH who thinks I am a fuss pot. (When merely reminding him to leave the loo seat down!)

There is a thread still in existence about what animal you think reflects you. I naturally picked Sloth, but now I'm having regrets. We always refer to animals as "dumb animals", but on reflection I think it's very presumptuous of me to align myself with any animal.
On the other hand I have no qualms with doing the same with the human animal. wink
On a bad day I'm "Victor Meldrew", and on a very bad day (not very often), I'm Alf Garnett. sad
But on more frequent very good happy days I'm a Goon! So bye-bye Sloth; happy dreams!
Just call me Eccles! grin
