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!)

We used to have profile photos in the old days where you could actually see posters.

You would have seen that I am tall, slim, blonde and elegantly dressed with never a hair out of place.

I could be your twin kitty except that I am petite but the same blonde hair and very slim and a beautiful complexion.
It is a pity that my wardrobe is full of baggy size 18's.

I'm actually gorgeous and always perfectly groomed!

Baggs Fri 28-Dec-18 13:20:20

I think they look like people with all the usual variations of detail.

callgirl1 Fri 28-Dec-18 13:21:29

I`m small and curvy with silky brown hair.

Baggs Fri 28-Dec-18 13:21:35

Moi

EllanVannin Fri 28-Dec-18 13:22:41

I wish I was, Jane10 !

EllanVannin Fri 28-Dec-18 13:25:14

Well done Baggs--------not a wrinkle in sight. You're only a young 'un.

I picture Anniebach as petite...

Baggs Fri 28-Dec-18 13:26:03

63, EV.

EllanVannin Fri 28-Dec-18 13:26:41

I too pictured Anniebach as small in stature.

Maggiemaybe Fri 28-Dec-18 13:29:44

Me too, farview!

I of course am, in appearance as in nature, like Mary Poppins, practically perfect in every way. And exceedingly modest.

Bathsheba Fri 28-Dec-18 13:31:16

baggs you look exactly as I have pictured you!

I think anniebach is a tiny and bird like, with a pretty face and fair, wavy hair.

I am tall, a size 10-12, with long dark hair, peachy skin and a perfect figure. Oh hang on, that was 45 years ago ???

EllanVannin Fri 28-Dec-18 13:36:06

I didn't think you were even that age Baggs.

Jane10 Fri 28-Dec-18 13:36:34

There was a thread a few years ago where we all sent in pics of ourselves.

EllanVannin Fri 28-Dec-18 13:36:53

I'd have said 58/59.

Maggiemaybe Fri 28-Dec-18 13:41:46

I remember that, Jane10, though the only one I could recall now was jingl, who was the spitting image of my grammar school headmistress. It made me jump, even though I knew that Miss C was long gone.

Daddima I wish! More like shortish, dumpy, dressed currently in baggy trousers, old T-shirt and warm check shirt (non-matching)

Choosing a username similar to elegant was a good way to confuse you, though.

I look like a sheep.one eye is higher than the other and my teeth look like sheep teeth.

lemongrove Fri 28-Dec-18 14:38:17

But at least you are honest Oldbatty ( which is more than can be said for a lot on here tchgrin)

lemongrove Fri 28-Dec-18 14:43:16

Anniebach will soon be smiling at your wrong descriptions.
I used to think Elegran would be tall and elegant with auburn hair, a bit Miss Jean Brodie like ( until she told me otherwise.)
I do remember that thread with photos, but cannot actually remember now how anyone looks.

lemongrove Fri 28-Dec-18 14:43:56

Baggs where is all your long hair?

Lynne59 Fri 28-Dec-18 14:46:17

This was me, a couple of months ago, ready for a Steampunk event

Baggs Fri 28-Dec-18 14:46:40

Had it all cut off after I broke my arm last year. I'm keeping it short because it's really thin now. I'm still training the barber ?
