So, you are being told that you have to give up something that you love. What would be the worst thing for you?
I love Scotch and wine, but I could give them up if needed. Tea is my one weakness.......... I could never give up my tea. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) Bev |

Music.
I dread the day I go deaf, not being musical enough to be able to hear music that well without it being physically sounded, and I dread arthritis stopping me being able to play. *fingers crossed that neither happens* |

Crossing fingers precipitates existing athritic tendencies! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Cheese? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

I can think of many things, some of them not too suitable to post here. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Perhaps I would most hate to give up my ponies, my recorder playing and singing and doing online theory and composition if the internet connection were to fail.

Books and/or reading. I could maybe live without books as long as I could still read on the internet, although it wouldn't be the same. But reading... I dread never being able to read again if/when I lose my eyesight as I get older (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Aside from music...*thinks*...I think I have to agree with Bev and say tea. Particularly (as some of you well know) the first cup of tea in the morning... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
