@Zoflorabore yes I could imagine you winning the Derby or Cheltenham Gold Cup. (Grand National too dangerous.)
Seeing you on threads with you waxing lyrical about a certain product made me try it. I love Hyacinth but it's hard too find.

My favourite nirvana song. Not very imaginative, I'm afraid 🤷‍♀️

StumpyinSomerset · 28/06/2019 03:06

Name changed a few days ago. This one is a nickname that I was called by an old workmate (I'm short and stumpy)and the county I come from.

My favourite angel, the transporter of souls. Spelled the Islamic way.

I was wearing converse at the time. Bit boring and unimaginative.

I was on holiday, at the beach, when I felt I wanted a name change.
