What is your favourite colour?

ninathenana Thu 03-Sept-15 18:32:32

No, but personally my shoes come off as soon as I'm home.

Did you enjoy dancing when younger, or maybe you still do ?

shysal Thu 03-Sept-15 12:44:30

Only knit little things for charity.

Do you have a 'no shoes' policy in your home?

Bellanonna Thu 03-Sept-15 11:03:36

Yes, our freedom passes include trains, so very useful !

Do you knit ?

ninathenana Thu 03-Sept-15 10:58:21

Not since our children were small. DGSx2 don't like crowds and noise sad

If you drive do you still use public transport at all?

Falconbird Thu 03-Sept-15 06:07:41

Just the usual round of birthdays.

Do you go to the Pantomime at Christmas/New Year?

Bellanonna Wed 02-Sept-15 16:37:19

Different soups, depending on what I have. A nice robust minestrone, perhaps, on a cold day.

Do you have any upcoming occasions to attend, e.g. Christening, wedding, or other celebration

Bellanonna Wed 02-Sept-15 16:34:23

I've replied Nina. My fault, sorry x

ninathenana Wed 02-Sept-15 14:38:50

Bella I have sent you a pm.
I apologise publicly for any misunderstanding

shysal Wed 02-Sept-15 13:35:25

It moved me to tears the first time I saw it on TV, and still does. Never seen a live performance.

Do you make soup, if so which is your favourite flavour?

Falconbird Wed 02-Sept-15 12:51:26

When I go to the theatre (which is rarely) I go to a matinée because there's no worries about getting home in the dark.

Do you like Riverdance?

Bellanonna Wed 02-Sept-15 10:45:49

Sorry Nina, but some people may live too far away/ not like theatre smile

ninathenana Wed 02-Sept-15 10:19:02

If we go to the theatre it's in London and due to distance stay over. So evening performance.

Assuming you go to the theatre smile What do you like to see ?

Bellanonna Wed 02-Sept-15 09:49:25

Used to love it but allergic to perfumes of any kind. Even sneeze walking down the supermarket detergents aisle

Assuming you go to the theatre sometimes would you usually choose a matinee these days ?

Falconbird Wed 02-Sept-15 08:41:26

Always use baby products. It started when I was a hard up young mum.

Do you have a favourite perfume?

ninathenana Wed 02-Sept-15 08:22:15

When I remember.

Do you always buy the same shampoo, shower gel etc. Or what's on offer ?

soontobe Wed 02-Sept-15 07:29:18

A couple times of year if I am desperate.

Do you use hand cream?

Falconbird Wed 02-Sept-15 06:42:52

Twice a week.

Do you use a tumble dryer?

soontobe Wed 02-Sept-15 06:29:50

I am not sure what is meant by good sailor. If you mean do I throw up, then no.
I have gone off boats large and small. I think they are going to tip over.

How often do you wash your hair?

ninathenana Tue 01-Sept-15 08:26:37

No, it was thrown out to sea where my grandad's ashes are scattered.

Do you like small boats, are you a good sailor ?

Falconbird Tue 01-Sept-15 05:48:36

I don't think first dances were in fashion when I got married.

At your wedding did you throw your bouquet and the person who caught it was supposed to be the next one to be married?

ninathenana Tue 01-Sept-15 00:04:30

Black jacks and fruit salads.

Did you have a first dance at your wedding, what song was it ?

Grandma2213 Mon 31-Aug-15 23:49:06

No idea - but will 'google' him/her to educate myself!

What sweet do you remember best from childhood? I used to buy fruit gums with the rare 3d I got from my dad.

ninathenana Mon 31-Aug-15 17:47:17

A full evening dinner only 2-3 times a year.We have lunch out a couple of times a month.

Do you know who Sheldon Cooper is?

soontobe Mon 31-Aug-15 17:31:53

I do centigrade. Can only remember that 16 c is 61 f. So can manage to switch them, if the temperature is around there!

How often do you eat out?

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?
