7.30 ish, as usual!

Do you know what you were doing this time last week? (I was sitting by a harbour in Cyprus watching the world go by...)

I was back to "normal" after my holiday.

Have you ever fallen out of bed?

Yes!

Which side of bed do you most often get out of?

the right-hand side (from being on my back). otherwise i would have to climb out the window.

is your room neat or messy at this very moment?

A bit of both. Clean, but messy.

Do you plan things or are you spontaneous?

Depends..sometimes I like to plan things..sometimes I do things spontaneously.

Which has been your best year so far?

2007, definitely. And 2008 can only get better, yay!

What age did you like being the least?
I hated being 16. Yuck.

I hated being 20...1983 was not a good year for me

Would you shave your hair off for charity?

yes.

would you get a mowhawk?

Only if I was very very very drunk!!

Who do you look like most..your mum or dad?

Hmm...my dad I think. If you look at pictures of both his sister and I when we were about 5 you can barely tell the difference.

Do you wear a watch?

no, but i usually carry one - when i'm out on a mission...

what do your favourite slippers look like?

They're pink with silver stars on them. Well, they used to be pink until I walked to the post box in them .

Do you have a favourite artist, and if so, who is it?

I like the work of Klimt, but also some of the French impressionists

Do you have a favourite author ?

I think after studying French art for my last OU course, I would very much like to see the original of this painting by Jean Jaques David. It's called The Assassination of Marat.




OOOPS Sorry F#! My favourite author is Thomas Hardy...



Do you read a daily newspaper?

"read" is probably too strong a word, but i do wizz through it and look at all the pretty pictures...

what do you do when you have loads and loads of excess energy and nowhere to go?

If it's dry, I take my infamous notebook and go up into the woods for a few hours. I can usually find something to inspire me there so I can put the energy into something constructive . If it's raining (as is more common) I tend to clean things, the kitchen, the car, the dog...

Do you think you have a good sense of humour?

Ermmmmm.... I think I might get on peoples nerves sometimes, but on the whole, I enjoy a laugh!


How do you cope with nerves?

I don't really. Distractions help though - finding things to clean or making bread or something...

Do you have a large mallet I could borrow? *Innocent smile*

Yes I possess two mallets.

Have you ever borrowed a 'provision', eg sugar or milk etc from a neighbour ?

Be my guest, Floss!!!




Would you believe I saw a wasp in the garden this morning? I thought they would all be gone by now...

Aggggghhhhh! Sorry again F#! Yes, I have borrowed some tea bags from my neighbour!

Yes I possess two mallets, but percussion players have loads, theyre your best bet.

Have you ever had to 'borrow' or beg a provision eg suger , milk etc from a neighbour ?

Oops Daisy and I are at it again, posting at the same time ! But Daisy didnt ask a question .

Yes, I borrowed some tea bags!!

Why does nobody want to finish my sentence?




I mentioned wasps, but I've lost the plot completely now!!

perhaps the wasps stole it.

do you have siblings? if yes, which one are you closest to?

Yes..I have three sisters (two older than me, and my twin). I guess I am closest to my twin, although I have more in common with my eldest sister.


Shall I be good and seperate all my re-cycling or throw it all in one bin bag?

Separate it? It's becoming an obsession in our house, I can never remember which of the 5 bins is for which any more...

Do you like quiche?

Ooh yes..quiche, new potatoes and salad! Very nice.

Do you stand or sit when you're singing?

Stand.

What's your favourite vegetable?

Roast parsnip!! (though don't tell Car Expert!)

Do you like cabbage?

I do .

Why are you a banana?

Something Benson said earlier in this thread!!

What are you thinking about in your profile pic? You look very pensive...

I had no idea my dad was taking that picture...I think I was thinking about something to do with waves, either that or thinking about someone back at home .

Do you like bananas?

I have to fancy a banana....my friend eats them when they're all brown and squashy..

Have you ever had ice cream with custard?

Can't say I have!

Have you?

No..but my step dad likes it!!

Have you ever had a good friend who let you down badly?

No, I think I'm lucky in that those few whom I regard as 'good friends' have never let me down. (Or me them, I hope!)

Are you going to watch anything on the television this evening?

Probably not. I don't watch much telly. I have my radio on as usual.

Do you always go to the same hairdresser?

I go so infrequently that I rarely see the same person twice.

How often do you have your hair cut?

Every eight weeks usually.

How long can you cross your eyes for?

I just sat there for about 30 seconds with my eyes crossed... then realised that I have so much else to do this evening that it probagbly wasn't the best use of my time...


Do you own a hoodie? (Mine is keeping my nice and cosy right now )

Not my style!

Do you own anything silk?

I do .

Have you ever been scuba-diving?

Love 'em. In fact almost all fruit, except the evil smelling Durian you can get in the Far East.

Do you like fried liver and onions ?

No. I'll just have the onions, thanks!

Do you know any Morse Code?

Not any more, but I used to know a little.

Do you use your hands a lot when you're talking?

Not too much...

Do you speak quietly?

Apparently I do...

Do you like public speaking?

I didn't. But I've spoken to groups of fifty or so (mainly student nurses) when I was working in the medium secure unit. it's good for the confidence I guess.

Do you like public speaking?

Not really, but I'd do it if I had to!

Visiting my clients! 5 o'clock on Monday-Thursday. 4 o'clock on Fridays. Weekends and Bank Holidays off!!
