You can't have her! I'm so in awe of her I'm actually wondering if I'm no longer heterosexual 😃

Well I’m definitely not, so get in line 🤣🤣
I contemplated making my list be Catherine Cawood, Karen from Will&Grace and Captain Janeway from Star Trek Voyager, but I don’t think I can handle having three “friends” I would basically be in love with 😁

TV/film

Catherine Cawood (I know, sorry)
Mildred in 3 Billboards outside Ebbing Missouri (played by Frances McDormand)
Mulder (X-files)

The first two would have my back in all difficult situations, but also tell me when I was being a bit of an idiot. The final one would come up with logical and scientific reasons for everything (and inspire me with her style)

Rose from What Katy Did
Chandler from Friends

Abracadabra12345 · 12/02/2023 19:18

Jesus - he’d be great company and make sure we never ran out of wine, fish or bread. Brilliant storyteller too
Max from St Mary’s Chronicles, she’ll love being somewhere that doesn’t smell of boiled cabbage or have random explosions (although, with Jesus here, nothing is guaranteed)
Enid from Wednesday because she is SUCH fun
