Idle doodles / reverse anthropomorphism

I had a call yesterday from a lady whose surname is Badger.  What a great name.  I'll be meeting her in due course but I'm getting this irrational fear that I'm going to be faced with this:


Mrs Badger


Of course this has set me off now and I've started to imagine her colleagues too...

...like Miss Fox


and Ms Ratt.

Then there's the elegant Miss Deer


I think it's probably unlikely I'll meet Mrs Highlandcow, at least.

      She has a tendency to fawn, though...

  3. Ms Ratt looks a bit like Rosamund Hanson (that's not meant to be rude!) These are inspired.

    1. Oops, not sure what RH would think of that!
      But I'm also thinking that Mrs Highlandcow looks a little bit like David Johansen!

  6. I had a supply teacher once who looked just like Miss Highlandcow. She WAS a cow, as well. Uncanny...

  8. Mrs Badger ? Does Anita Dobson know that is how you refer to her ?! I love badgers...despite having one embroidered on my maroon school-blazer :)

    1. Haha - but no, Anita Dobson (!) doesn't know how I refer to her but I'm sure it isn't anywhere near as bad as how I refer to her husband ;-)

      Curious to know why a *badger* on the blazer?! At first I thought there was just a surplus 'r'...
