After much analysis of the entrails of Google Analytics, Young Keith tells me that the title of this post was in fact the collection of words used as search terms to find this blog.
Normally I would deride the poor deluded soul who thought they'd find anything useful with this particular set of terms. But you know, it set me wondering...
Norman Clegg - ISTJ
Norman is set in routine and fearful of change. A deep thinker and analyzer of others' motives, he is rarely found wearing less than twelve layers of clothing.
Compo Simmonite - ESFP
A child of nature, Compo is always looking for opportunities. Normally opportunities of engaging in a wrestle with Nora Batty. He has no problem being the centre of attention.
Cpl Signwriter Walter (Foggy) Dewhurst ENTJ
As one might imagine, Foggy is constantly trying to improve. He values rigid planning and attention to detail. None of which, not even an allegedly successful military career, prevents him being hopeless.
Oddly enough, Seymour Utterthwaite and Cyril Blaymire have remarkably similar Myers Briggs types.
Nora Batty ISFJ
Nora knows how to put every moment of her time to good use. That good use normally being the laundry, sweeping the steps or black-leading the pigeons. She is not a great dreamer, preferring on the whole to use the mangle. She does not find it hard to speak loudly. But she can occasionally express her extrovert side with a yard-brush.
Wesley Pegden ISFJ
You might not think that Wesley and Nora have similar Myers-Briggs attributes. But just consider - they both prefer to get on with their own lives and their own activities, they both resent their tasks being interfered with by others, and they both go off alarming when they are challenged or their judgement is questioned. Once you've seen it, it's obvious.

What a timely post. I am due to attend a Myers-Briggs weekend quite soon, and having filled in the questionaire, and sent it off to be analysed, I took a sneak peak at a similar survey on the internet, which left me exceedingly confused.
ReplyDeleteHaving arrived at the personal conclusion that I am a happy, laid back, take it as it comes type, I was astonished to find that my type is probably nearer that of the Archdruid!
An autocratic leader, a disciplinearian with a touch of 'Paxman' thrown in. I cannot imagine why this should be the conclusion, after all, I spent many years in the Army learning a 100 ways to discipline people and then to lock them up - along with the those essential people skills of being a strict vegetarian, teetotal, 'careful with money' person.
I suspect that this is not the required preparation for service with the church, but might well fit me for service in the ArchDruid's chain gangs as an overseer.
:-) No ENFP's in Last of the Summer Wine then?
ReplyDelete"Anonymous", you're not channelling the spirit of Foggy Dewhurst are you?
ReplyDeleteSally - I've seen ENFPs referred to as "Inspirers" - what are the chances on Summer Wine?
