Mtuzi wa Samaki....or East African coconut fish curry. Tasty!!

The other fave is Plaintain in cheese sauce for which I do not know the African name.

White rice or brown?

Brown

I hate it when I agree with Katie Hopkins, don't you??

The Danish leave their babies outside the shop, would you do that??

No

I agree with Hopkins there

brrrrrrrrrrrr another fffffff rrrrr eeeezing cold air night

[ fingers have started to feel like blocks of ice ---- for a few minutes now ]


same for you ??

Not in this day and age.....fortunately the very young baby that was taken today was found safe tonight

Yes, I have to say I agree for once with the foul biarch.

Choccy....I have the woodburner toasting me nicely so very warm here....well in one room at least!!

When I was a child it was routine to dump your kids outside a shop. I can remember standing among prams and pushchairs and other kids while our parents shopped. In those days children were never given bribes to behave well while out. You simply got a clip round the ear if you didn't behave.....should parents give in to pester power and get kids treats every time they go out?

Hell no!!

Heating on!

Not keen on having heating on but compared to last year it has been cold and it was easy enough to chip a £20 on the gas

How much wood would I get for that??

A load that lasts me a month is £55.

When did you last see the Optician?

Only ever seen one once, aboot 6 years ago or summat

Watching The Brits??

Nope. Lost interest in award ceremonies.

Plus we are talking Adele and Coldplay.............................................need I say more?

OooooooOOooo... did you watch the NME Awards then??

Do some old people try too hard to be 'cool'??

No I didn't, and you can shurrup, smarmy pants! I just saw an advert for the Brits earlier.

Do you think of yourself as old, or middle aged?

Age is just a number, people always assume I'm younger than I am

Have you considered Simon Le Bon's plastic surgeon??

I'd never have plastic surgery Even in 20 years time when I might start needing it

Would you?

Some laughter lines that escaped my cool exterior

Do you smile a lot?? Peeps always think I don't smile at all yet I'm always cracking up with mates

The times I met you you had a very smiley face. I have always smiled a lot. My nickname as a child was Smiler

Do you chat to strangers in shops or at bus stops or keep your own counsel?

I always chat anywhere I go - including bus stops - on the bus - Supermarkets - shops check outs - car parks - on walks - on coaches - I chat just about anywhere

How about you ??

Yep....guilty as charged!!

Ever had a blood transfusion?

no - luckily not

Given blood ??

I used to, but due to having had transfusions before they routinely tested blood for HIV I no longer can

When did you last eat chocolate?

Sometime back in mid January
A Thornton's Christmas set - of a cute white dog and a choccy Xmas tree - a snowman
and 3 other cubes of choccies - all in a clear plastic display pack
Bought about 6 packs after Xmas - they were all about £3 - mine were all reduced to 19p

How about you ?

At about 7pm tonight I had a square of Lidl 70% black choccy!

You have been very good Choccy, not eating any since January

Do you have good willpower?

I ate all those packs by Mid January - and removed all temptation

I do have great will power tenacity and determination - if I have to

Since before xmas I already have got loads of blocks of Lidl's dark choccy and lots of other bars of cadbury's chocolates - in the cupboard
but I have not been tempted to eat all those *yet*

How about you re willpower and have you also got a big choccy stash ?

Quite good without being fabulous.

What jewellery do you habitually wear if any?

Piercings and wedding ring

Willpower? Yeah, I no longer smoke or take drugs so I guess so

Is Gary Oldman a complete prick??

Nate - I don't think I know him - but he looks like the guy on a few mins ago talking about Bowie

Wore lots until early October 2008 -
But since then I just wear one ring on my right hand [ the opposite wedding finger
I have never once removed this ring from my body since I was about 16
it is a band originally made from Gold - but was coated with Platinum years ago
it has a cut out pattern all around it of what looks like the shape of 8 eyes / or pairs of bandit eye covers

how about you ??

Is that you Becks ??
