Well, there's a vegetable plot in the garden but we've not been here long enough to make use of it (yet!).

When did you last go to the dentist?

in the summer. had to wait 6 weeks to have a broken tooth seen : (

when did you last clean your teeth ?

This morning.

Do you like Gorgonzola cheese?

I dont know, i dont have one

what is on your music stand / holder


-----------------


ROFL sorry i thought the post said whats in your CD player

Other wise...

Not too much

what is on your music stand / holder

A Disney book.

When did you last polish your piano?

I've never polished it.

Whats your least favourite number?

7. Not only the number itself but multiples of 7, numbers which make 7, like 25 and 34, anything with a number 7 in it. I really don't like it!

Do you have a lucky number?

Well, 16 and 27 have been "regular" numbers for me if that makes sense. I've lived at both 16 and 27 addresses, and friends, family or students have too.. (And they are connected with no.7..sorry Floss!)

How are you feeling today?

Despite having a mountain of things to do and not knowing where to start, absolutely fine!

Did you have a good day yesterday?


*27's not so bad - A couple of years ago I was on the verge of a panic attack when I found my seat for an exam was number 16 though. *

I had a very good day, thank you.

What is it about the No.7 that worries you?

It's kind of a long story - A couple of years ago (when I was 14 I think...)I realised that anything unpleasant that had happened to me, or my family, had been connected to the number 7. (Grandfather died on the 14th, which was also their wedding anniversary, someone else died on the 7th, in 2005 everything seemed to go wrong, and countless other things, too many to list.) For about 18 months I would lie in bed each night adding up the numbers in people's birthdays, counting drawing pins, even counting notes in pieces of music. I don't know what stopped it but it slightly took over my life for a while . (I had to force myself to catch the bus to school every day, as it was no. 25 .)

Anyway, do you think I'm (even more!) odd now?

Not really..it's all down to association, mainly isn't it? Bad things happened on 7th and it's multiples, so you were bound to react in some way. I hate the year 1983 as that was a very bad year for me. Anything I hear about that year (even good things) just reminds me of how bad it was.

Anyway, are you having a traditional Sunday roast today?

**Sorry, Floss...1+9+8+3 = 21**

I think we're having mince and tatties actually .

When did you get up this morning?

Well, a text woke me up at 7.10!!!! I got a cup of tea and went back to bed until 9ish.

Are you doing any music practice today?

Hopefully! I finally got the music for Summertime so I need to make a start on it at some point .

Do you like doing jig-saws? (How on earth do you spell that word?! )

perhaps a bit of playing, but not practice. i should probably be feeling guilty about this, but need a break after high-intensity practising for weeks on end.

can you do any origami?

oops.

um, can i answer miss ross's question, then?

i do not like doing jigsaws, unless they have very irregularly-shaped pieces.

can you do any origami?

I used to like doing origami. I had an origami book and could make birds and frogs etc. Have forgotten how to do it now.

Is the weather warm where you are?

Fairly, it's not too bad anyway.

When was the last time you went to the cinema?

January 2006

When did you last go bowling?

July, I think. Don't particularly enjoy it though.

Can you ice skate?

I can indeed, although I'm a bit out of practice at the moment!

Are you good at memorising telephone numbers?

Not bad, relatively speaking!

Can you touch-type?

No! I'm too nifty now with my two fingers to want to start trying to learn to do it properly.

Do you usually take the lift or the stairs?

Depends on how many stairs!


How do you like a boiled egg? (iI like a runny one with soldiers, but not so runny the whites not cooked)

Me too!

Do you like having your photo taken?

No! My school photo this year took 3 attempts...


If you eat steak, how do you like it cooked?

Well done..

Do you prefer singing alone or in a choir (if you sing at all that is!!).

In a choir. I love singing in church but doing a solo is a nono.

Do you like babies?

Yeah theyre sweet, but its 29 years since I had one ! (But he's getting married Dec 1st, so maybe not too long to wait for a grandchild!)

Are your feet both exactly the same size/shape, or do you have trouble buying shoes where both feet fit properly. ?

um, no wish to offend (you like babies, i think?), but not really. well, actually, i have only met about two, so i can't judge very well.

if you could be any fictional character for a day, who would you be?

damn! i keep replying at snail-speed!

feet: i usually have trouble finding shoes to fit, finding shoes that i am allowed, and finding shoes generally.

so: if you could be any fictional character for a day, who would you be?

Erm, I like being myself really. But if I had to choose, Anne Shirley...

(You don't like babies benson?!?!?! I just died of shock!)

The game keeper (Oliver Mellors) in Lady Chatterleys lover !

Which fictional character would you NOT like to be ?? (bait bait)

I'll answer yours because I forgot to ask a question with my reply!

I would hate to be Superman.

Are you more imaginative or logical?

A bit of both really... I like writing poetry and fictional things, but I'm logical in my work, studies, teaching etc.

Is there much outside noise where you are?

Nah, except when the workmen get their drills out...
(I like writing tooooo)

Elephants or giraffes?

Oh I think Giraffes are rather more graceful !

Have you ever touched a snake ?

Yes, I have had one of those big things (python?) wrapped round my neck at a zoo!
Got a photo of it somewhere..

Have you ever used "stuck in traffic" as an excuse when you've been late for other reasons? (overlaying or something).

No!

Neether and eether..

Did you get caught in a storm this morning?

Is itch a noun or a verb? (or both)

EDIT: Sorry, too slow

No I didn't get caught this morning, but I did yesterday.

Itch can be both verb and noun. eg my bottom is itching or my bottom has an itch !

Do you have a garden gnome ?

No...

Are you hungry?

Not really....

If you got invited out by friends on the evening of your lesson, would you go and re-arrange your lesson, or have the lesson instead of going out?

I'd re-arrange going out I think - Knowing my luck, I wouldn't be able to re-arrange the lesson .

Do you know the words to 'Bare Necessesities?' (Just had to demonstarate it to a 4th year music class ...)
