Ernestine Marsh

Hello there, my name is Ernestine Marsh. I am a wife, (and an horrifically bad cook), mother and grandmother.

I was born in Birmingham, England in 19(censored) and have a Brummie accent you could cut with a knife. And I don't mind people taking the wotsit out of it.

My husband says the words 'I love you' every day to the dog.

I am a football fan and support (don't laugh) Birmingham City. Unfortunately husband supports Aston Villa, the other Birmingham team. Yes, it's a mixed marriage. But we jog along quite well in spite of it.

I am an award winning author, having gained a 'Cycling proficiency' badge at the age of 11.

I started writing my 'problem pages' a while back on a, now defunct, forum and then in a blog and they did quite well. They are a bit of daftness which I hope, if you can bring yourselves to read them, you enjoy.

I am posting a picture of our dog as my profile pic because, I'm just being honest, he takes a much better picture than me. I am a teetotaler but look absolutely plastered on all photos of myself. I'm not joking. I've always got one eye shut and my mouth wide open.

I hope, if you do dip your toe in Agonising, that you like it!

Ernestine
