Mary! Well done you. I think there is something a bit spooky about you missus!!! Yes, I have to confess that my middle name is indeed Audrey - ugh, I hate it. I mean c'mon - Susan Audrey? Do I strike you as an Audrey? Shouldn't I be floating around in a kaftan, like Margo Leadbetter in 'The Good Life', drinking aperitifs before dinner and doing Good Works for the church? That's the sort of image it conjures up for me. I think Tallulah suits me much better (grin). No offence to any other Audreys out there - I'm sure your name fits you just right and that you are nothing like Margo :)
Now that I think about it, I kinda liked Margo....oh dear...
Or maybe I'm more like this Audrey from 'Little Shop of Horrors'?
Congratulations to Mary, I will send you a little prize in the post.

I knew it had to be something fairly prim and proper!There is this woman in my house with a hoarse whisper ( or even horse whisperer!) who I think is jealous. So thank you and I will email you Mary
Hi Mrs Woman!!!!!

Oh Margot we all like watching the re-runs of The Good Life.
What about when 'Margot' had a friend called Audrey and lived in the Manor. Aud did all those good works, they both did, both were 'to the manner born'..... Val
Helloooooooooooooo! Came here via David's Blog and your comment about your favourite toy! What a lovely blog, I do love your textiles and what do you know, you are not so far away...we are in Whitby, North Yorkshire, so in the blogsphere I guess we are neighbours! LOL!
It's surpising how many people hate their names isn't it? I have always hated Margaret and feel much more of a Mags. Do you think if I called myself Margo I'd be just a little bit posher? I loved that series.
Margot is my favourite character :) And Rumpelstiltskin was a joke, silly!
Audrey is not TOO bad, really, (although I had a SIL called Audra who was a bit awful - no longer a SIL, though, so not an issue - but it still reminds me of her) but I can understand you wouldn't think it fit. And I'm not sure it goes with Susan.
Mine's dull but unoffensive - Lynn (my first name, of course, is Kathryn, rather than Kate). So there you go!
Two words: Audrey Hepburn.
