Are you doing anything special for Bank Holiday weekend?

No, I think it's going to be the usual wash out weather wise.

shysal Fri 28-Aug-15 08:42:56

I hate crowds, so shall do my normal walk alone, then stay home.

What food do you think you don't like, but have never tried?

What are you doing for Bank Holiday ?

Falconbird Fri 28-Aug-15 09:01:45

Hope to see my son (who was estranged) with wife and little girl 16 months. smile

What are you doing for Bank Holiday. (This could go for awhile.)

soontobe Fri 28-Aug-15 13:00:17

I didnt realise it was the Bank Holiday weeked until a couple of days ago.
I have been out quite a lot recently, so I dont think I will be doing anything special.

Charity Shops are relaxing. You can just browse around looking for bargains.

Looking back into history ( near or far back) which was your favourite time for fashionable dress?

NanKate Sun 30-Aug-15 07:59:30

The 1960s for me, what an era to grow up in. Fabulous colours, different materials an explosion new exciting designs. Although I do love the elegance of the dance dresses in the 1920s and 1930s.

Describe your favourite shoes whether you bought them yesterday or in your youth,

shysal Sun 30-Aug-15 11:01:01

A pair of high heeled ankle boots, bought about 25 years ago, but still worn occasionally. They were reduced in price because one was a 5 and the other a 5.5, which match my feet perfectly.

Are you, like me, one of the few people who have never watched 'Friends' on TV?

NanSue Sun 30-Aug-15 12:21:19

No. I used to love friends. Still watch the occasional re-run. Never fails to make me smile.

How old is the oldest item in your wardrobe?

DD bridesmaid dress. She was 3 at the time, she's will be 28 in October. I just can't part with it smile

Are you a 'clothes person" ? Awful expression, but you know what I mean.

soontobe Sun 30-Aug-15 18:40:45

No. I have to "dress up" occasionally which I dislike a lot.

Cherrytree59 Sun 30-Aug-15 21:27:15

Armchair theatre

Grandma2213 Sun 30-Aug-15 23:14:50

'Beanz Meanz Heinz' - Apparently a million housewives every day picked up a tin of beans and said it! They don't taste the same now though!

Are there any of the supposedly popular programmes on TV that you dislike? I don't like 'Downton Abbey' and hate 'Mrs Brown's Boys'!

ninathenana Mon 31-Aug-15 00:03:37

I too hate Mrs Brown's Boys.

If you had a £500 windfall but weren't allowed to spend it on bills or DGC what would you buy ?

I would replace my cat-scratched leather sofa.

What nickname do you have for a pet (if printable!)?

ninathenana Mon 31-Aug-15 11:48:44

Our rescue cat was named Skye when we got her, that's what's on her vac. cert. She's usually called Madam though. I'm sure you can guess why.

Can you wire a plug ? Not sexist, my 24 yr old DS couldn't.

Falconbird Mon 31-Aug-15 13:13:57

Interesting question. I used to wire plugs all the time but now things come with plugs which makes life so much easier.

Can you do centigrade (eg. the weather) or are you still on Fahrenheit?
