Yes, if it is clear I will look out of the bedroom window before dozing off.

Do you wish the internet was never invented?

I quite like the internets.

Pete Burns has died aged only 57 Is 2016 the worst year for celebrity deaths ever?

Pete Burns was a troubled but more than colourful character. I wish he had appeared more on TV with his fun side. But yes, it appears more celebs than ever are dying, none of them are hanging on for Mythmas.

Have you ever done a life expectancy test? Have you outlived poor old Pete?

I wouldn't do a life expectancy test. I don't fear death, only the manner of my passing and I'm not done with life yet so hopefully another few decades please Mr Reaper sir!

Has your TV ever changed channels without you doing anything?

Not the TV but a table lamp turns on and off for no apparent reason.

Ever contacted what you think is the after-life?

It's contacted me, beyond doubt. There's nothing to fear in it. However I wouldn't seek to make contact myself.

As a child friends played with Ouija boards but I never wanted to. Have you used one?

Yes, as kids and as adults, and also with very sceptical friends. This is a bit too dark for here.

How green was my valley?

Not having been in your valley, I couldn't possibly tell

The spirit world is both dark and light, everything's a balance in nature

I read the short story from Pond that Amazon kindly sent me for free.....I reviewed it in Username Silliness

Hot chocolate, Mocha or cocoa?

Hot chocolate. I can only drink non milked coffee and tea.

Would you do charity work when you eventually retire?

I do charity work now for Cats Protection. Retirement age is a ways off but if fit enough then, sure I would.

Ever worked in a charity shop or organised charity events?

I have helped transplant charities but wish things that now appear to be charities were still paid for jobs. Footpaths and canal restoration for example.

Do you think we are all in it together?

Of course not! There are vast gaps of privilege and lack thereof in this country and the haves will always feather their own nests at the expense of the have nots

Not seen Ordinary Lies, sorry....

Do you vote for what's best for you personally, or for what is best for the country as a whole in your view?

I never vote on principle.

"The lives of others" is a brilliant film.

Can you answer more than one question at a time?

Women are good at multi-tasking

I have Lola Rentt on CD. When I retire I will watch all of my thousands of films. It is like what Groundhog day should have been.

Have you seen Switchblade Romance?

I haven't.

Hero with Jet Li is the most visually stunning film I've ever seen, it's like looking at art. Ever seen that?

That is cool. Jet Li in Unleashed was brilliant. I will check out yours.

Sadly not, I think it's too cloudy here at present, although I live in a dark skies area with no light pollution so if the clouds part I've a good chance of seeing some action!

The colours of Hero and the sheer epic scale of the sets and photography are amazing

Ever seen a crab shed its shell?

No although I regularly think about getting one until the pain and expense put me off

Speaking of pain and expense and thinking of poor Pete Burns, would you or have you ever considered plastic surgery of any sort?

Now, boiled egg or poached?


PS. There's no hell!

I love both sorts of eggs! And yes, there is no hell. That's here on earth. What comes after is a different kettle of fish entirely

I didn't know that about Pete But I guess it goes with his flamboyant nature and don't give a f***ness.

Ever been to Kew Gardens?
