Same poster who asked about Brian. Hmm

Nope.

@kenandbarbie good spot.... is someone pulling our leg? Try harder if so as Brian and Bertha aren’t that wacky. I don’t like either though

AhoyMrBeaver · 07/02/2020 23:07

Bertha, lovely Bertha. Sometimes I think you're a dream...

Nope.

Readers of the "How to train your dragon" books will always be thinking of the character called Big-Boobied Bertha.
