Joyce is on a bit of a high.

When Alistair left her for the trollope from the office she was, well, shattered. There is no other way to put it. There she was cooking and ironing his shirts for the last 20 odd years and then he trades her in for a younger model. And it wasn't as though she had let herself go - what with the pilates and swimming. Alistair was always one of those "tea on table and slippers in front of the fire" types.

Well after the initial devestation Joyce began to find that life on her own was not quite as bad as she feared. Alistair wanted a quick no fuss divorce and as a result she managed to take him to the cleaners and come out of the marriage in quite good shape.

When it was apparent that no children were to come from the marriage Joyce got herself, what Alistair always termed "a little job". It was at the local garden centre - working on the tills and customer services but only when it was very busy. Her boss however, sensing the need for purpose in Joyce's life offered her more house and now she has a full time job as Head of Conifers. She has never been happier.

Ah but remember there is more than one Bev in RL and so it can be on MN. We've had several versions of Barry and Phillipa (displeased at wrong spelling of Philippa here BTW)

I just shows that Beve can have mulitple manifestations, as can Barry. In fact, maybe they are all made for each other - a sort of Bazza/Bevva fest?

Carnoodleusfudge · 20/07/2007 23:52

Please can we have a rule

If you refer back to people more than 24 hours ago you have to give their post date

I am so confused and I can't find Bev and I put her in this mess!

Troy is lovely - he just doesn't have any depth or huge requirements from life.

Tory on the other hand - well she'll never be satisfied. It started with wanting a pony, but that one wan't pretty enough for showing, then she wanted an eventer but daddy couldn't afford, well, the best you know. Then she found out that the guy she was shaggin wasn't quite what he seemed to be at first glance (Miles maybe?) and so it goes on... Now tory is 43 and getting a teeny bit desperate. Still goes to old school reunions, still hoping, but let's face it her best fun is had from shagging the local Master of the Fox Hounds while his wife is staying at her mother as she's broken a hip and needs a hand right now.

kenneth lives next door to Brenda. he has lots of carrier bags in his drawers

stressteddy · 20/07/2007 23:17

Brenda always buys her tea bags when they are on a two for one offer
Brenda will not ever pay for digital tv - she is waitng for the Government to have to buy it for her (she can't believe they can just switch it off without providing an alternative)

moodlumthehoodlum · 20/07/2007 23:04

Breadline Brenda. Uses her teabags at least twice.

Well now that we've cheered ourselves up, we could create a darker twin sister for her?

Got to go to bed. Sadly this thread has kept me up late for the last two nights, it is taking over my life. May it run and run.

stressteddy · 20/07/2007 23:02

give us another name - let's get back to what we're good at mrs.r

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:59

Do you know what - I am getting bored of Rosie already. She is too perfect

moodlumthehoodlum · 20/07/2007 22:59

Yup, deffo.. Beauty without being intimidating. Popular without being annoying.

Night all. Who's going to take the 1000th post fame? Will it be Rosie, Bozza or Bev?

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:57

She gives blood every month too.

stressteddy · 20/07/2007 22:56

she has a blood group that matches everyone elses - she is a medical marvel

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:55

Her head teacher, Mrs Margetts, still remembers her. 'Oh yes Rosie, lovely girl, became a teacher didn't she?'

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:54

Rosie was Head Girl at school, and not because she was the coolest girl, but because everyone liked her. She didn't bitch, and wore just the right amount of makeup. She was one of those girls you wouldn't mind your daughter hanging out with.

moodlumthehoodlum · 20/07/2007 22:48

Brilliant MrsW. I love Rosie. Its so nice to have someone nice on here!! . She is well liked though isn't she? I hope she has lots of friends.

stressteddy · 20/07/2007 22:48

Mrs R - you have won me over. Thank you. At least I shall not toss and turn about Rosie tonight!

Rosie has a very good selection of biscuits awaiting in the cupboard for anyone that happens to visit

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:45

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:45

(Am I going in the right direction, MTH/ Stressedteddy?)

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:45

Rosie is one of lifes' genuinely nice people. She turns ladybirds the right way up. She is a puppy walker for Guide Dogs for the Blind. She teaches reception class and is adored by her children.

moodlumthehoodlum · 20/07/2007 22:42

Well spotted Mrs W. You're right. She was going to be, but I stopped short and just made her a "good egg". Can we hope for more?

stressteddy · 20/07/2007 22:39

hoorah for Troy and Rosie -all is indeed right in the world again!
The electrolysis will be v soon - the stripping is going very well
