Bette wins on size, Liz on colour...

and going off on a tangent, I can't believe the people who stick 'eyelashes' on their car's headlights... :-0

"You are a symbol of elegance, but you do have a quirky side, You like to surround yourself with interesting people and you are always in search of your next adventure. Keep looking, you never know what far-off places life will take you to!" ...eerrrrrr... Morrisons? ;-) :-D :-D :-D

I love Doris Day too!

Jemima won't you show us the link for Grace Kelly?

beautiful and tragic


Susan#, was that 'name ... drop' ? :-)

not James Hepburn, third husband of Mary, Queen of Scots ?

because you might be but she isn't ... so says wiki

but maybe you are just another of the deposed European blue bloods floating around the planet :-D


the only peer in my tree was a lifer, so no blue blood for me

It seems to be going back to the beginning!
I have done the quiz 3 times now, to try to get the link to the result, but it doesn't seem to work.
There's been a few different questions each time but I still got Grace Kelly! :-D :-D

We do have some princesses here!


I am having a memory blackout

who was in North by Northwest?

that's what Grace Kelly keeps making me think of but that's not right

... Eva Marie Saint, you don't hear much about her ... still living at 91, married to the same man since '51 ... not at all like that character!

sorry! I'd thought that worked but

you have to right-click on the image, select 'view image' and -then- copy the URL (that ends in 'jpg') in your address bar

oops

I used to be a Shirley Temple lookalike when I was little - blonde hair in natural ringlets - my Mum had a whale of a time with me :-D

JoonieCloonie Report 12 Sep 2015 23:15

yay, Grace Kelly, elegant but quirky


my mum was a slender strawberry blonde and her father-in-law called her Rita Hayworth :-)

I spent my teenaged years trying to tame the widow's peak cowlick that would not let me have a fringe (going to bed in sticky tape and forgetting to take it off before going to school ...) ... so when I settled on trying to drape it across my forehead my dad called me Veronica Lake


Wend you are probably just afraid of coming out as Joan Crawford :-D
