I imagine a slim, tall, white woman in her late 40s to early 50s who has teens and a dog. She loves wine and a food snob.
I imagine her ginger with hazel eyes. Big breasts.
She used to smoke and was very wild but is now part time just to keep herself busy.
She has a boozy lunch with her girlfriends every couple of weeks. She is always dieting.

White Female. Degree educated. Lives in the south east. Got married then had children. Wears functional clothes. Is ready for any eventuality: kids need a 10ft chicken costume? Done!.

belives that kids become fully functioning adults when they turn 18 to go to a RG uni. But if they are having a hard time getting to that RG uni, then they say that the brain isn't fully formed til they are 25.

Is slim. Only does hair removal for holiday's (in Europe) and likes reading and crosswords.

Actually this description is my Dad’s last friend actually - she was 58 when they met - even though I didn’t deliberately base it on her
