I DID! But I don't remember how I found that out. Perhaps in one of my hungover "Wikipedia reading" sessions. Perhaps.

Did you know that Anubis was not a golden jackal?

Was he not the god of mummification?

Possibly. I don't know. However, may I recommend The Anubis Gates, an excellent fantasy by Tim Powers.

Did you watch the first part of the Egypt series on BBC 2 last night?

No. Was it good??

My wife loved visiting Egypt, have you been??

I need to download it and watch on catch up!

Not heard of the Anubis Gates. I shall have to check it out

If prescribed antibiotics do you always finish the course?

Never been on them, so I can't answer!

Am I the only one who always feels guilty for wasting a doctor's time?

Nope. I waste doctor's time all the time but sadly safeguarding guidelines mean I have no choice

Do you find accents with an 'upper inflection' intensely annoying??

Intensely. I love my Australian friends, but a lot of them always seem to be asking a question. I do wish I could point out that a statement does not require such a thing, but I'd feel too guilty. Still, the dears aren't as bad as the Americans for it!

Am I the only one who finds the a lot of American comedy interminably dull?

Yes, it is only you that dislikes US comedy to that degree

I feel you should start with Modern Family and build up to John Oliver*

Favourite Australian comedy show?? Hmm??

*oh bugger, he's a brit!!

Sons & Daughters

Did you watch Deutschland 83' on ch4??

No, I really wanted to see it but was working

Was it that good?? Do you struggle with subtitled TV??

Nah, I've got a housemate (Aussie) that never stops talking through shows. Subtitles are a God-send!

As for Sons and Daughters, all I gotta say is:

Sons and Daughters
Love and laughter
Tears of sadness and happiness
We will find out our sons and daughters
Are what, we too, were once about.....!!!!!

Loved it, not as good as Prisoner Cell Block H, mind.

And yes, unfortunately I'm a Brit-gone-Australia. The Brits see me as an Australian, the Aussies see me as a 'Pom'. I'm in nationality purgatory!

Considering guilty pleasures... What's yours?

Loved the original Prisoner Cell Block H

My guilty pleasure is

My father emigrated to Oz

Favourite prison drama??

Peanut butter, betting on horseracing/football occasionally.

*nate, it was fairly entertaining, don't mind subtitled films or tv at all*

Favourite radio station?

Gotta go with 'Bad Girls'. That started off my fixation with Prison Drama. Was amazing at the time.

Bieber... That's not a guilty pleasure. That's just pure BDSM for the ears!!

Where in Oz did he go?

Best TV program you've ever seen?

Oops, double post central!

My favourite radio station? BBC Radio 2 in UK. 6iX in Perth. They're great. All the old classics....

No - Mother died in April 2008

Last things you ate before bed ?

So what's your favourite food?

Over all - I eat more vegetables than anything else

Fave fruits ?

Bananas & satsumas

Favourite way of preparing potatoes??

Jacket potatoes in the oven because they are more crisp that way. I like them in the microwave as well though.

Do you have many photos of yourself when you were really young and if you do, do you like looking at them or avoid seeing them?

I have none as an ex-fiancé destroyed them all

Coffee??

Tea please first thing in the morning!

Ever dipped bread and butter in your tea?
