Pick a Board member with a pen-name and describe how you imagine them, just from the name, not by looking on the Photospage, and see if that person agrees with the description. I'll start (although I have seen a pic of this person, this is how I imagined them) |

Bendy Wendy I imagined her to be a tall-ish, slim lady who is very good at sports, possibly a gymnast or a sports teacher, into something like judo or kick-boxing. I pictured her as mid- to late twenties, with short brown hair and a very 'elfin' face. She sounded like a very active person, with a quick mind and ready wit, who doesn't suffer fools gladly. She's someone I would want on my side in a fight! CB >|< |

No, Gwynne, you're next! Guinevere I imagined a very smartly dressed, businesswoman, wearing a tailored skirt suit and crisp, white blouse and smart, high-heeled shoes. Hair - short, dark and immaculately cut - not a hair out of place. Just a little make-up, expertly applied - red lips and long, red, manicured nails. Average height, but perhaps a little on the plump side. Precise speech, with a slight Welsh accent, and willing to discuss people's problems constructively and try to help, without 'lecturing'. Strong opinions, well thought-out. A very well-organised, tidy person. CB >|< |

*falls off chair* *clambers back up and surveys piles of paper surrounding her* tidy and well-organised hmmmmmmm. I have to concede you got some of it right....... Except my mode of dress tends to the Bohemian and arty farty unless smart is called for in which case you are spot on. I am trying to convince myself that size 14 is slim - do not disabuse me of that notion. And 5ft 3 is average height, it is - I know it is. Nails are currently purple but they are usually red. *mutters darkly* Gwynne |

Buttercup, You're spot-on there, except for 'well-built'. I don't think whoever put me together did very 'well' at all - they overdid it! Probably concocted too much mixture and didn't know what else to do with it. LoL Now, for the return match - Buttercup Fields I imagine BC to be a short-ish, blonde lady in her mid-late forties. Quite well-rounded, with a full face, a ready smile and twinkly blue eyes. I'd expect her to be casually dressed and wearing trousers and low-heeled shoes or boots, possibly wellies. I reckon she loves animals and has at least two dogs, probably border collies, and she enjoys long walks in the countryside with them. I'd say she probably lives in a village and takes an active part in village social life, being well-liked by most, if not all her neighbours. I could imagine her having a hobby like bell-ringing in the local church, and possibly running the village shop-cum-Post Office. Probably way off-beam, but that's my guess! CB >|< |

CB - I DO like you !! Tall and slim no - the rest of it is probably pretty accurate - apart from the age - 37. Maz Pasty - before I saw your picture I imagined you as having short, very sleek dark hair and to be above medium height and of medium build. I saw you as quick witted and kind and generous with your time. For a brief period I saw you as a naggy old battle-axe. (But I love you now !!)xx |
