What's your favourite all time album(s)?

Troublegum by ?Therapy

Was destroying the Death Star an act of terrorism??

Perhaps virtually speaking. Depends which side you're on

Budweiser or Stella?

Stella

Snakebite??

No thanks.

Do you watch 'The Bridge' on BBC 4??

I do not. Do you recommend that I watch said televisual experience??

You could do worse than tune in, to the aforementioned TV drama.

Have you ever climbed a 'Munro'??

No.....what is one of those??

A large hill, not quite a mountain. I'm guessing I've climbed one on the Yorkshire Dales or in the Peaks

Ever been potholing??

Does the " caves of drach " count ? if so yes

you ?

No, I don't like the thought of small enclosed spaces underground I'm not keen on lifts either!!

Ever been stuck in a lift?

Yeah, we crawled out up to the next floor.

Ever been on a ski lift??

No, I'd be terrified But the views would be awesome. If I were in some sort of enclosed carriage it would be fine. It's the thought of just a dangling seat

I've never tried to ski. Have you?

Yes in Australia - just once and never again
I went backwards more than forwards ------ and brrrrrrrrrr -- it was sooooooooo cold
The best part was when we were sat inside the chalet with our hot toddies

Ever dived into a swimming pool ?

Of course, I did a lot of swimming as a child

Did you have to do your swimming safety test where you jumped in and 'rescued' a brick from the bottom of the swimming pool while dressed in pajamas??

No - we had a swimming pool in our secondary school
We were not even taught to swim !!!! let alone - doing anything like that
Some kids could swim but I and other non swimmers would just get into the pool and hold the rails and kick our legs a bit or wade around trying to avoid being splashed in the face - till the hour ended - and then always dreaded the cold communal showersssss

When I was 12 - I luckily taught myself to swim in that pool - I suddenly worked out that
By holding my breath - I could lay face down on top of the water - then gradually do other things - once I knew and felt safe doing that

Before this - on holidays an adult would once in a while place their hand under the tummy to assist staying afloat
but this was not at all helpful as this made you feel like a see saw - tipping back and forth and not removing the fear of it all

What were your childhood outdoor activities - that you enjoyed most often ??

Playing football and cycling, I was a mad cyclist

Is your area flooded??

No - Luckily we don't get flooding here
But have just now >>>>> come in from catching my friend's dog Milo
who had just got out of their house porch and front gate - as their granddaughter was going back inside
Awwwww but He had a big funtime ROMP all around the Very Squelchy waterlogged big grassy field - directly opposite here

I followed him♥ all around on there to get him back home
after she had just given me my Sunday Roast dinner - as she has done since about 2005/6 - for 50 weeks of each year -

I have just changed my **sodden socks**

Have you been out today ??

Nope.

Are you - or did you know - a prefect at school?

I knew the Prefects, used top get up to things behind the bike sheds with one of them

Were you a milk monitor??

No

Your Age @ your first proper kisses ??
[ Was 12.5 for me ♥ ♥ ................ & I was in love ((♥♥)) ]

Had this question before and I can't honestly remember

Have you wrapped presents yet?? Staff here are putting up decorations

No - Not wrapped any

When you do wrap festive pressies - do you enjoy the results of your neat and pretty wrappage ??

I like to put ribbons and tags made from last year's cards on gifts. I must start to wrap them soon!

We had a lovely nut roast Sunday lunch and now dropped mini twass and the BF back for the train. He's a lovely bloke, I hope this one lasts!!

Are there many festive lights up near where you live now?
