It's both Robbie.

I find it quite interesting to read how people picture one another.

When I read a post, a picture of the person forms in my mind.
It will be really funny to see just how wrong one can be.

I have been described as tall/short/medium, blonde/redhead/brown/grey.

Take your pick! :roll:


HAVE FUN. :lol:

No Eeyore, just the picture.

Then we try to guess who is whom, once that's done each person posts
what they are really like etc. :shock:

BTW we will give the scores then too.

Must think of a name for the winner....... Mystic Meg or Merlin, something like that. :wink:

Cat, don't worry too much about getting it wrong, I'll be lucky to get any points at all! :roll:

Yes it is a funny name, sounds like a clown. I got the name from my niece when she started talking. She couldn't say Pauline so she called me 'Auntie Popo' and it just stuck. :D

Pauline, in danish "popo" is and oldfashion word (not very often used anymore!) that describes an overclass ladys behind. It is not pronounced the same way.

Please don't take me telling you this the wrong way -I just thought it was funny and hoped to give you a laugh :lol:

Very good Little jg! :D

Except I only watch local hockey when I get to go to the games, otherwise I'm not much of a fan. I don't even know who just won the Stanley Cup! :lol: While Canadians do like their hockey, our true national sport is lacross which is very similiar to hockey but without the ice.

Yes, Ottawa is the capital of Canada, but can you find the capital city of Nova Scotia?

My levels are hard!?! :shock: I guess I'll have to get my step-daughter to help me make some levels.

I know not everyone has posted, but there are a few that have and they missed me! :cry:

Old Pete - you seemed rather confused by me. Don't worry, I confuse a lot of people! :lol:

Inger - You didn't say anything about me, either :cry:

Robbie - If you've gotten beyond the whole cow thing, I'd like to hear what you have to say about me! :D

I can't score points for anyone who missed me :(

BTW - I've been copying things that have been said about me, and while they are all very nice, and some scored some good points, no one has "pegged" me dead on yet. :wink:

… I didn’t realize I’d missed giving accurate descriptions to so many of our ladies – and reading back of my images post (for want of a better description) I realized I’ve only got sort of serious for 2 or 3 and even then I haven’t formed a really clear visual image. I haven’t really looked back specifically at everyones individual postings to look into characters but I do get the sense that our ladies are much like the description I gave of Di. I don’t know how many hundreds of members are registered just off hand but those here seem to be the ‘core’ group. I had visualized are non-Catwomen girls as Grandma’s but now I’m not so sure. But our girls are a close-knit group. Independent yet at the same time incomplete & not totally at peace unless they’re with friends & those special people that mean most to them. Young at heart with active minds (pre-requisite for Wonderland). One, yet each a little different from the other.

Sorry that’s it. I’ve been struggling to visualize my own girls lately. My concentration has been elsewhere in a lot of respects. My wife & I bought our first home May last year with the understanding that it wasn’t ready for habitation – a renovator’s dream I think you’d say in realator terminology. 50 years old, structurally solid, weather board, beautiful timber flooring but apart from that… I took my wife & eldest girl down to Sydney to stay with her family – our youngest girl was born beginning of July & the plan was that they’d stay there ‘till September & the house would be done for them to move back. Our initial labourers managed to finish 1 room & half finish 2 others in 4-5 months. The builder we now have has had challenges getting pricing to us & as for council… should be ready to start shortly. I’ve really only seen my girls about 2 months out of the last 11-12. I've been ringing up everyday but you know it's not the same... :(

I’ll have to put myself out of voting & take a place next to Bear on the podium.

Gee, Robbie, that sounds like a renovation nightmare! The last house we owned in Los Angeles was more than 80 years old when we moved in and needed a lot of work, including bolting to the foundation (which involved having very small workers crawling around under the house for days on end, the music from their radios seeping up thru the floorboards,) whole new electrical system, asbestos removal and lots of tedious stuff. It could have used a new kitchen, too, but considering how I loathed having construction work going on in my house, I decided I could live with a somewhat primitive kitchen easier than I could live with a renovation.

Considering what you are describing, all of that sounds pretty minor in comparison! I do hope you are reunited with your family soon. What a very long time to be away from them, especially when the girls are so young and changing so fast. When my grandkids were that young and I didn't see them for two weeks I could see the changes! I'm sure you miss them terribly. I'm feeling very sorry for you right now, you poor baby!

Poor Robbie! :shock:

I worked briefly in Property Law while I was training, and having been a receptionist for a law firm that deals with a lot of property transactions, I know how very stressful buyers, sellers and builders can get when it comes to their homes. I've seen tears, temper tantrums and rejoicing (and that's just the lawyers :lol: ), so I tip my hat to you. :wink:

Maybe you should employ a couple of 'Roos to get "hopping" on the job. :lol:

Hi Eeyore,

It's one point for each correct guess, in Jen's case 2 points.......she cannot vote in the picture section so , I think this is fair.

10 points in the photo section for a correct guess.

I will open a new topic for the scores.

We will have to wait for Jen to give us the web site for viewing.

Cheers

Maureen. :D

Question about scoring - are points only for the physical parts in the descriptions? Or can we also give points for other correct guesses, like neat freak or likes outdoor sports?

Old Pete, BTW, I don't believe you've ever let on why you said that, just because my name is Dianna I must be gorgeous. After all, my parents probably named me while I was still in that stage where you can't really tell what someone is going to look like. Is there a special Dianna in your life? Not sure how to score that comment, either, except that you should get the point just for saying such a sweet thing!

Hi Dianna,

Score for each correct guess, it doesn't matter what it is.

I think the name Dianna, conjures up the Goddess Dianna in our minds.

Maybe Old Pete will enlighten us as to his "Dianna"! :wink:
