Westerners Profile - Little Ginny

Profile: Little Ginny

 Real name  Jenny Hopkins

 

Am I really the first Lady Westerner to do a profile?  come on girls don't leave me on my own.

 

Real name:  Jenny Hopkins.

 

Age:  Don't ask, I'll only lie.

 

Married 37 years to Badger (The Ramrod) and we have twin daughters in their 20's (and a dog called Harry).

 

Favourite films: never been one to sit still and watch a film all through (always seem to have something else to do) but I do like Whoopie Goldberg.

 

I have only been on the Westerners scene for 4 years (a mere beginner) but I have made so many friends, and I love dressing up.  Now I watch all the Westerns, just to see what the ladies are wearing.  I've never been in so many charity shops in my life, but its good fun putting the outfits together.

 

Love "camping" at the festivals and shows etc. (especially now we have a little comfort)  Badger and I seem to spend more leisure time together and we really enjoy it.

 

I love performing with the "Show Team".  The first time was at one of the Camp-Outs at the Portway, I cried backstage, I was terrified, but now I don't mind at all.

 

Favourite food?  Food....and sort of food......I love food (as my friends will tell you, I usually finish everyone else's) I may be small but I can pack it away.

 

Hobbies:  Well I've never been much on hobbies.  I do collect thimbles and have over 300.  I don't regard the Western interest as a hobby, more a way of life.

 

I am attempting something I never thought possible at the moment, I'm trying to give up smoking and at the time of writing this its 4 weeks now.  Having been a 40 a day smoker for 40 years I never thought it possible, but if I tell every one now it should make it harder for me to start again.  Have to watch the weight though, I can't afford any more costumes.

 

Listen carefully I shall only say this once..........

Goodbye.
