am curious - if anyone wants to say - I am average height (5 foot 4 inches), smallish build (size 12) dark hair, fair skin and either really scruffy or very smart (don't really do in between [grins])

5ft 2, apple shape, dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. Size 16 but trying to lose weight. I'm told I look like Julie Graham from William and Mary/Survivors - I've been stopped in the street and asked for her autograph before. Am in a style rut at the moment and feeling frumpy.

oh, and, re being called 'sir'
I once overtook a woman on a footpath who had seen me coming in the distance, & as I passed her she visibly jumped when she realised I wasn't a bloke
(& that was when I was thin & had long hair)

AnyFucker · 29/09/2011 22:55

yeah in the queue at the Post Office

the old gimmers always say "this young man was in front of me"

great

Ponders · 29/09/2011 23:02

yeah, it's the dim old gimmers' problem really though, not yours, AF Smile

AnyFucker · 29/09/2011 23:04

Perhaps they have a point Smile

I suspect I am what the French call une jolie laide.

Short
Slim
Slightly mannish features
Perplexlingly popular with the opposite sex.

Sausagesarenottheonlyfruit · 29/09/2011 23:14

mumsamilitant · 29/09/2011 23:25

5ft 5 AND A HALF!
longish hair, started off blonde (well mousy really) now have lots of grey highlights and and love it (DP wants me to go back to blonde and he can sod right off)
Bit overweight but recently lost 1/2 stone and counting.
Big knockers, menopausal belt, flat arse.
Bit of a "frustrated hippy" in my dress. Chunky Jewellery.
Small nose (now as had it done!) used to look the spit of Barbara Streisand.
Nice teeth (have a massive thing about this)

I was out with my stepson the other week (he is 26) and his female friends refused to believe I was his stepmother.. then insisted I looked about 33...

I loved them Grin

Then i go out with my own mate, and recall this to her and she looks at me and says "oh you do look your age really"... Hmm

Its her 30th tomorrow, so I may just have to get my revenge!!! :)
