Cecilia (I love how that autocorrected to 'ceiling') has long, wavy brown hair and wears hippy-esque clothes.. She's a bit of a hippy in her lifestyle too and makes her own soap.

Jasper is quirky, favours skinny jeans and flamboyant shirts. Hair flops into his eyes but it's always clean. Quite posh but plays it down. Popular with the ladies.

Castiel is the exchange student your Mum warned you about.

Smells strongly of Boss Bottled, wears strange jeans & has already broken three hearts despite being in the UK four days and being awful.
He is scared of horses and bees, but likes turtles.

Delphine

PeeAche · 18/11/2021 17:52

Delphine has been divorced 3 times at 32, 41 and (most recently), at 50. Her new boyfriend thinks she’s 45. She has 3 adult children who all live abroad. She lives in a converted gate house. It’s cute but it only has storage heaters, no gas central heating. Her hair is very short and dyed white. She needs glasses but doesn’t wear them, likes Pinot Grigio and drives a 2007 Vauxhall Polo in bright blue. Delphine works full time in the offices for a civil engineering firm. They make and install large scale flow meters for underground pipes, but she just generates the invoices. She mostly eats ready meals for dinner because they’re 3 for £7.50 in the M&S food near her work.
