Ask a question

No, nobody to visit the places with. #billynomates.

Do you have a spare room and is it a tidy guest room or a dumping ground? Mine is the latter

I have 2 spare rooms, one a dumping room and one is reasonably clear for guests.

Are you still storing stuff for children that left home years ago? I do!

We have a bedroom and attic full of 'stuff' for children who have left home, and are acquiring more 'stuff' in another room for visiting grandchildren.

Do you get someone in to clean your oven or do you do it yourself?

Someone else, he's called DH

Which household chore do you dislike most ?

Cleaning windows.

Do you take toiletries etc from hotel rooms

DH does, I'm sure the expect it anyway.

When and where did you last stay in an hotel?

A week last Sunday we stay one night at The Barn, Roundhurst, near Haselmere. It was exorbitant in price £150 a night B and B but we couldn't find anything else in the area in August to attend a family occasion at short notice.

Having said that it was wonderful sleeping in a barn, the facilities were second to none and the breakfast delicious. If I had more money I would stay there again.

Have you ever gone commando ?

NanKate I just Googled The Barn, wow !

No, never gone commando.

What's your favourite sport as a spectator ?

Anything as long as I'm not joining in!

Did you enjoy the cricket?

No- I find it boring and don't understand it.

Do you take many photographs?

Oh yes - even more since I went digital. Everything I do with the DGC is recorded and I also keep a record of my walks. They will be 'virtual' walks when I can no longer manage them!

Do you have any phobias? I actually don't!

Big spiders, deep water and some lifts.

No they break or split the minute they get to anything near a decent length
