She would really like it if it weren't for the customers.

Ingrid is very very bright.She is streets ahead of the other pupils in her class at the local comprehensive.The other pupils do not like Ingrid.Today Ingrid's Humanities teacher insisted that the whole class listen to Ingrid read out loud,an essay,which,she Ingrid, had written on Third World Poverty.The other kids hate her even more now.

Ingrid wishes she had grown up in the 80's.She would have been chaining herself to the railings at Greenham Common in a flash.

Jo is rather beautiful, has long dark wavy hair and is secretary to the marketing manager of a record company. He is a sleazy bastard who is constantly trying to shag her. She is in love with the previous incumbent who was happily married but on the receiving end of blow jobs from the press manager.

Polly has a seven year old son called Marmaduke who she dresses in Oilily, much to Dukies distress. Polly is hovering between divorcing Giles and keeping stum as she does so love tennis and her Harvey Nicks card and shudders at the thought of losing free access to either.
Giles has a two week holiday in the Algarve each year with Kerry whilst her husband is playing golf. Polly thinks he is goes to an annual conference in Baden-Baden on the futures market and bullish development framing.

(Need info on Kenneth)

Miles has working class parents who thought naming him Miles would help his future career but didn't think about the fact he would get the shit kicked out of him at school, but he did OK with his exams and went on to do chemistry at the local college so now works at the chemical plant nearby.

Miles likes to play golf with his dad and cycles to work, he gets to borrow his dad car sometime though. He has moved out to his own flat eventualy, but still goes home a lot so Mum can make his tea and do his washing.

Miles is really a bit square but not as bad as hid freinds so he once got seduced by a slightly intoxicated female, she took him back toher house to do naughty things. Miles though she was a prostitute and spent the whole time worrying when he was supposed to pay her.

Miles's mum, I forget her name (well everybody does) used to work in the village COOP years ago, she talks like it was yesterday and pretends she is still best pals with all her old workmates, but in reality she sits alone all day in her B&Q conservitory that Andy from 2 doors up helped to build. Her old workmates didn't like her much back whent hey were working either.

ggglimpopo · 20/07/2007 21:47

Aaah Scribble - add something jolly about her, quick!

sallysparrow · 20/07/2007 21:51

David is enjoying life as an actor.

He hates it when his mates shout "Squeeee" at him whenever he comes into the pub.

Miles's mum Ebeth likes to be a traditional wife, secretly she wants to kill her domineering husband and drip of a son, who has inevitably turned in to the chavanist her husband is.

Ebeth does all the cooking but after 50+ years she still isn't that great and sticks to the old favourites like mince and tatties but sometimes gets adverturous with tinned pinapple rings on gammon steaks. Sha has heard of lasagne but has never tried it let alone make one.

Ebeth is good at cutting out coupons and actually uses them, her high moments are when her Coop dividends get paid out, its her only money apart fromt the housekeeping her husband gives her and expects her to account for every penny.

MrsBadger · 20/07/2007 22:10

Elspeth is a Guider
her Guides think she is wet
and they are right
but they come anyway because she takes them camping at Scout campsites and is too wet to stop them sneaking off to meet Boys at 3am.

Back with Bozza and Tilly. Bozza wears double breasted suits with a wide pinstripe - he likes to think of himself along the lines of Gordon Gekko. At the weekend he has a snappy range of coloured cords, from lemon to scarlet, all of which he wears with brown suede shoes.

[carnoodleus - I did used to work with all these people so maybe your husband was there too!! ]

Elsbeth has recently bought her first pack of tenalady's and wishes she's bought them years ago
Elsbeth desperatley wants to meet Mr. Right
Elsbeth secretly hopes her guides will be as needy in life as she is

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:18

Can Clive and Bev get together please? I do feel sorry for Bev, she deserves a happy ending...

stressteddy · 20/07/2007 22:22

i don't know who bev is now but I said earlier that Bev is v. career minded but has food issues. She can't eat foods beginning with the letter c

moodlumthehoodlum · 20/07/2007 22:23

Rachel is salt of the earth and lives in Bromley. She loves Facebook. She was the first of the secretaries at work to get on Facebook, and she has got loads of friends. She spends all her working hours at her desk "biting" "throwing sheep" and "poking" her many virtual friends instead of formatting the press releases Bozza lobs her way.

She is wondering whether to "poke" Bozza, who is also addicted to facebook, but is less good at swiftly minimising it.

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:24

When she's not Guiding (she secretly aspires to become District Commissioner but is not upper middle class enough),Elspeth also runs her local NCT Bumps and Babies group.

She picks discussion topics like 'Mad to Be A Mother?' and 'Things I Wish They'd Told Me'. The mums think she's a bit patronising; the Girl Guide attitude is sooo hard to switch off - they're just there for the tea and chocolate digestives.

Elspeth has a labrador calendar on her kitchen wall. She also owns a pair of Hunter wellies, green of course, believing they are a mark of higher social status.

moodlumthehoodlum · 20/07/2007 22:24

Absolutely stressteddy. I thought Bev had IBS..

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:25

We met Bev yesterday at about 5.30 (Carnoodleusfudge) and Clive shortly after

stressteddy · 20/07/2007 22:26

stressteddy · 20/07/2007 22:26

MrsRonWeasley · 20/07/2007 22:27
