Not quite, but I think you do know who she is. She's not mixed race, but converted to Islam, which may be where confusion has arisen 10 hours ago, HeHasRisen said: Surprised to hear she had a dog tbh, didnt think Muslims were "allowed" (as it were) to have them as pets. A nice touch though. Can you see PT paying the blindest bit of attention to anybody else's opinion over whether or not she should keep pets? 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's not mixed race, but converted to Islam, which may be where confusion has arisen I was thinking of a mixed race lady who was petitioning about the bridge barriers, I had a conversation with her about it near the Supertram stop around 12 years ago. It must have been someone else. I hope that PlainTalker's funeral goes to plan and that her family can pay their respects as well as can be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not able to attend but as you knew her well did she support any charities? I'd like to give a donation in her name if that's possible? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One to ponder. Nothing against dogs, though, they do make life a lot better. Edited August 24, 2023 by HeHasRisen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.B.Yaffle Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I would have loved to attend as I've known her for over 30 years, but am away on holiday. I hope the funeral went well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
