Does anybody have a mental picture of other posters? I imagine elegran to be small, slim, and modernly dressed.
I see Anniebach as a bigger lady with fair hair and glasses.

What do you think, and how right are you?

( You can tell I’m bored!)

If anyone ever watched South Park, I look like Miss Choksondik.

I find that wearing a hat makes my head hot and my hair go even wilder!

I don’t think you will ever forgive my beret comment Jalima ?
My advice is.....put the beret on and look in the mirror and be very honest with yourself.

I have several hats, including a lovely faux fur one, but my fave one is a ‘Compo’ hat which I wear when gardening.grin

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:57:06

ha ha - will you knit me a beret grin

lemongrove Wed 02-Jan-19 22:56:10

You can always wear a hat Jalima ?

How I long for fine, but thick, straight hair …..

Charleygirl5 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:35:54

Jalima not me. My hair I think is my best feature as it is very fine, straight, in a bob and I have lots of it. I preferred it when it was naturally dark brown but I can live with the white/silver appearance.

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:29:48

You're being modest Charleygirl!

Charleygirl5 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:28:53

God help anybody who resembles me.

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:28:39

No she doesn't
But my face has 'drooped' more than hers! sad
There's time though, she's younger than me smile

MissAdventure Wed 02-Jan-19 22:27:22

She doesn't seem the 'facelift' sort, does she?
Its so subtle these days though, that I sometimes genuinely don't recognise people I've not seen on tv in a while.

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:25:10

perhaps it's wishful thinking on my part …..
but she seems to be the nearest - or was.

I must have a look to see how she became more glamorous and try to do something with myself. NY resolution.
Unless it was a facelift, in which case, no way.

I always think Julie Walters has a beautiful face.
It so full of humanity and warmth. smile

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:18:00

blonde and glamorous.
(Not me)

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:17:07

I'm more like Julie Walters on a bad day before she became so blonde glamorous. (no, not Mrs Overall!!)

MissAdventure Wed 02-Jan-19 22:15:03

Well, I'm fatter.
I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing!

A love sick partner once said I looked like Goldie Hawn. Think i'll pretend he was right!

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:10:20

No!!!
You must be more smiley than her smile

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 22:09:03

I have to look up Shirley out of EastEnders as I've no idea who she is!!

Before I do, I imagine you rather glamorous, MissA - perhaps not blonde but slim and stylish.

MissAdventure Wed 02-Jan-19 22:04:15

We had a thread a while back asking who you had been compared to, looks wise.
Mine was 'Shirley out of eastenders', so you can have that one. grin

Mycatisahacker Wed 02-Jan-19 21:59:56

I am gorgeous just so you have that mental image grin

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 21:48:37

I've just downloaded the book, so look forward to reading it!

callgirl1 Wed 02-Jan-19 20:41:47

I sometimes read People`s Friend, not every week, but now and again.

Elegran Wed 02-Jan-19 19:52:03

Everyone quickly read Jane's post in case it gets deleted!

Elegran Wed 02-Jan-19 19:51:01

You can write them one by one for the People's Friend. I would imagine that is less stressful that gettting a whole book out on one go!
