I'm not sure there is a live link of "Claire and her friend" in this thread anymore, so I am posting this one....

...this was Funky's reply when I requested "The girl on the left" (it links to this thread)

Some argued they were sisters, and some were convinced that your girl was in fact Claire.
In any case after those few sets they never did appear again.
