this is your Life. . . . .

Chatterb

Chatterb was a charming child, adored and pampered by her family. 

She grew up showered with expensive gifts, every whim catered to.

But  in a tragic turn of events, she was abandoned at a bus station at an early age, and had to learn to fend for herself .  Brave little soul that she was, she did her best to keep body and soul together.

      Begging for pennies

For a time she made a living as the world's youngest doorman at a posh London club, but when she was fired for not being able to reach the door knob, she went on to doing stand-up comedy in clubs.  She wasn't funny, but she could live off the vegetables that were thrown at her.  She even worked demonstrating skating techniques, but she kept forgetting to put the skates on first.

Finally she got a job as a ventriloquist's dummy.  But when the owner of the act got arthritis in his knee from her weight, she knew she had grown too old for the job, so she looked for greener pastures.

 

She wandered East, and with her background in show biz, found a job in the bazaars of India

Later she ran off with an emir who promised her a life of ease, but left him when she found out she was expected to change the sheiks every week.

     

 Chatter next tried the contemplative life, but got cashiered out when she was caught at the corner snooker parlour.

Finally at peace and a respected member of society, Chatterb now spends her days as a hgv driver between Bristol and Teeside, and her nights in the wholesome pursuit of innocent chat.
