That particular friendship is one of the most remarkable in my life. We've never met in person, however, she is like my sister from another mother, and we'd published a series of books together, collaborated on some interviews, and I regularly contribute to her web site.
You've both got my fiancee beat. She's 4'10" I believe
"Boo" looks startlingly like the Hobbit's photos as a young girl. Spookily similar.
At her tallest, my mom was almost 4'9". She's in her late 60's, so probably shorter than that now.
It's the times.
Didn’t get to Wales, though that is definitely on the list for next time. We ranged all over England, and spent a few days in Scotland. Was an amazing trip. Celebrating my 25th anniversary.

I don't understand why "petite" clothing size is 5' 4" and shorter. I am 5' even - and I have to hem petite clothes all the time, especially the pants.
Yeah, well I've been called some other things too!! :}
don't feel bad! Nobody understands the sizing of women's clothing. Not even the manufacturers. On the other hand I usually have to choose 'long' in pants, or I look as if I am expecting a flood.
Ohh, I am DYING to go. I have so many friends there - in London, out further in the sticks, in Wales, in Ireland.
My mom was 4' 11". In metric that translates to 1 meter 49 centimeters or thereabouts. Her nickname was "chekushka", which is a slang word for a quarter gallon of vodka, which, at the time, cost 1 rouble 49 kopecks.
