Picturing posters

I love it, BradfordLass - that's my new motto (in fact, it's probably what people say about me anyway )

Bradford Lass you look like my friend MB. ...a sweet, happy face ....

Just a hint as to who MB is.....she is related to the Duchess of Cambridge .....

Tell us more ?

The cartoon was how I imagined MawBroonsback.
Nowt to do with my looks which are a far cry from the cartoon.

If you go back to view their wedding video, you will see MB in the front pew (left hand side) in a blue dress.
I got to know MB through the Fairshares group, fighting for pension rights for divorced men/women. The group has now disbanded.

That's disappointing lemongrove as I imagined you to be about 5-5, 9st - ish with a slightly olive complexion and dark brown shoulder length slightly wavy hair and a ready smile.
I can imagine you as neat but not the OCD type and very welcoming to visitors.

Well, I could have claimed to be anything GG54 but since I have met about ten GNers in real life, had to stick to the truth ?
The last sentence in your post is true anyway.

Ah well...still, the last few words tell the best story.

I think that lemongrove lives up to her name - blonde and sunny, likes things in neat order like a grove of trees!

if we were not to speculate about the looks of GN posters
Then what is the point of the thread?

Well - here goes, just in case anyone is remotely interested:

I am 70 years old, 5'7" and weigh in at about 11 stone (very heavy for me - I was about 8.5 stone till impaired mobility struck). I have long very dark brown hair with a fringe, brown eyes and a weird complexion (think mediterranean with a hint of jaundice!) - but no wrinkles - yes honestly - my gran died at 92 with not a single wrinkle - thank you Gran! . I wear rectangular frameless glasses with pink trim.

I virtually always wear jeans - or linen trousers in the summer. I always wear trainers as I have orthotics which fit in no other sort of shoe. On the top half I wear cheesecloth/linen/cotton tunic/smocky garments; or long cozy jumpers in the winter.

I like bright or light colours, especially pink/cream/white - which make me look slightly less yellow!

I never have been and never will be the height of fashion, so - definitely no posh shoes, especially high heels, no make-up, no painted nails, no posh jackets, no perms/died, set/coiffed/sprayed hair.

Think ageing hippy with great hair colour and complexion but poor mobility - can't win'em all! [smile}

I hope that I live up/down to expectations!

Mawbroon, I don't keep bones in my bun ... Tried it once, and found it uncomfortable ..

haha



I'm 5/10, 135, thin- I can roll up into a little ball, fit into small places, making it difficult for the children to find me while playing hide and seek ..

I am 5'7 and weigh more than you at 11-2 but our shapes may be very different. It's a funny isn't?
I remember being about 10-2 In my 40s and my face showed the weight loss although I wasn't on a diet, just breastfeeding my youngest.
I feel best between 11-0 and 11-7.

You remind me of someone, BradfordLass - are you famous in RL?

rosecarmel

Or at least, famous in Bradford??

Maw it’s a reference to the Flintstones, Irma ? Always had a bone keeping her long hair up in a bun.?

Well - here goes, just in case anyone is remotely interested
Luckygirl; Well' I'm remote; (BradfordLass is remoter!), and my interest was definitely aroused when you said you always wore "virtual" jeans, but reading on destroyed the image. . Thank you for your comprehensive post; it's refreshing to read one that goes beyond the usual one-liners! OoRoo

Rosecarmel you are 135? What, years old? Blimey, you must be doing something right.

Well, if anyone's interested, I'm 5 feet 3 and a bit inches. I'm a size 14 in most things and weigh about 2 stones more than when I got married. My hair is grey and my eyes are hazel. The glasses I wear have blue frames and turn into sunglasses when I go out, which surprised the grandchildren when they first saw them. ? I live in trousers or jeans with floaty tops or tunics in the summer and longish cosy jumpers in the winter. I like reading and crochet. That about sums me up.

I'm 5/10, 135, thin-
Rose: 135 eh!? You're about the same age as my Mam! She found out I was in Oz and appeared briefly on Gransnet not long ago. Rufussmum!, but has since disappeared, so if you happen to find her in your hidey-hole please tell her to get in touch as we still have her 130th birthday present! Many thanks!

Well a person might be thin by the age of 135 mightn’t they?

All you need (or want) to know about me
Bradfordlass; Encore.! You remind me of our Aunty Nellie of Chorlton-cum-Hardy standing on the pavement outside her front door in her Sunday best on Sunday mornings, which I believe was a popular custom, way back when! I can't be sure what was on the placard she usually carried; nothing "churchey" for sure!

I see none of the three posters you've described like that mycat!
