Anyone got news of Beatrice35?

[Aquagility]

I would not be surprised if Bea has taken her bat home, tho' I hope not.

[rockfordill]

Yes I have been worried for some time about Beatrice - I believe that she was excessively bullied

[rockfordill]

And I well remember reading the essays of Elia at school - those were the days!

[Tallulah!]

It was Bea that bullied us! I miss the banter that she never took in good part.

[Aquagility]

Some harmless banter, yes. But also some merciless bullying. And what a bore AB would be without a few eccentrics!
