Continuation of: Question & Answer Session (Part 5)

No, I should be so lucky.

Well, I have to announce the winner of the "Guess who I shared a lift with on holiday." Nate guessed it right, it was Stephen Hawking! I was absolutely gobsmaked about it. My hubby was pushing me into the lift in my wheelchair and I suddenly realised that Stephen Hawking was being pushed in by two ladies right at the side of me. I did a double take as I kind of felt that I was seeing things. It was only a couple of floors up and we got out and I was saying to hubby, "That was Stephen Hawking" and he said, "I know" but it all seemed a bit unreal. After that I decided that if I saw him again, I would ask if I could take a photo of him and me, but when I saw him twice more, it was always in a huge crowd waiting to go into the dining room and he wasn't in the area I was in. I would have loved a photo with him.

Have you ever seen someone very famous unexpectedly and felt as if you were seeing things?

When I lived around Hammersmith I ran into Fergal Sharkey a lot, that was always weird

That's some claim to fame there Fibro, I would have got a picture

Have you read anything Stephen Hawking has written??

No, as I don't think I would understand it. I really regret not getting a photo with him, but it was just too quick.

Are you having a good day?

I did buy a few things - but it has been quite a number of years since I have bought clothing
It is a shop I have not visited now for about 2 years

No, but then I don't drive anyway.

Thanks for the welcome back Choccy. I feel like I am back with my friends when I am on here.

I watched the X-Factor this evening after watching the last two weeks episodes yesterday. I think the overs are a very strong group this year. Do you have any favourites?

I think the groups ad the overs are very strong, the boys will go early I reckon (unless Mason Noise returns!)

Is it all an obvious fix??

I honestly don't know. I used to think it was all honest and aboveboard, but over the last couple of years, I am not so sure. That stupid woman called Bupsy seems an obvious fix to me. She is awful and the way she climbed all over the desk and Simon Cowell when she did her audition all seemed so fixed to me.

What do you think?

It is no more manipulated than the music industry in general but that suggests massive manipulation and as the producers chose the song, the lighting and the background they can quite easily be used to manipulate the viewers

Do you watch Strictly?? I've never watched it.
