I'm blonde (out of a bottle!!) in a shoulder length, overweight for my 4'11' height, but not too overweight ( a stone and a bit!!) Brown eyes, fringe to hide my wrinkles!!! And me and my 4th cousin, met through genealogy bear a resemblance to each other!!! ( we share GGG grandparents, our GG's were brothers!) Carol

I am physically challenged at 5ft and 1 inch tall. Long black hair and hazel eyes. Overweight and very much like my paternal grandmother. My father and his half brother (whom I have recently traced) were like two peas in a pod. Raven

Hi Christine, no, we weren't, I look like my sister and she looks like our Brother. Just has well that we had that clarity as people would have thought that we'd been exchanged at birth, bet that happened in the olden days. It does make me curious, I look at my Mum though and know what I am going to look like when I am that age, I tell my boyfriend to run! x

I am a little old man, 5ft 8in., with a white beard and halo. I am very much like my granddad who was a little old man, 6ft, with.a white beard. He was a missionary but I am too wicked. I got the halo for services to the fairer sex. len

Len phoned the Salvation Army and said 'Do you save fallen women?' When they replied in the affirmative he said 'Save me one for Saturday.'
