Character Q&A: The Last Thursday Ritual in Little Piddlington

Posted on - 25th May 2021

What’s your name?

Michelle ‘Mike’ Smith.

How old are you?

19 years old.

Tell us a bit about yourself… 

I’ve been unemployed since I left school three years ago, so I still live at home with me Mam and Dad. I ride a bike to get around, and I do all my own maintenance, so I sometimes make a bob or two repairing other people’s bikes to top up my benefits. My favourite outfit is black leathers, platform boots and a white silk shirt.

What’s the best bit about living in Little Piddlington?

Everyone knows everyone else. We’re all kind-hearted but inside, we’re each a bit of a rogue, so we always cut each other a bit of slack.

What do you care about most?

Hiding the fact I’m only 5 feet 2 inches tall. That’s why I wear the platform boots.

What are you obsessed with?

Keeping fit enough to better the men in the village when I want to.

What’s the best thing that ever happened to you?

Discovering alcohol.

Tell us about your most embarrassing moment…

Getting caught forging references on my job application to join the police force.

What are the 3 words that best describe you?

Wily, loyal, realist.

Finally, what do you like to do in your spare time?

Go for a drink in the Queen’s Legs with all me mates!
