Do you, or did you used to enjoy horse riding?

ninathenana Fri 27-Nov-15 09:56:00

Yes, one of my closest friends is someone I met at school.

What will be on the top of your tree ?

shysal Fri 27-Nov-15 11:10:26

A star.

How many miles a week do you drive on average?

ninathenana Fri 27-Nov-15 15:51:59

Now DD and family are no longer in the area it's no more than about 25 and that's all food shopping.

Do you wear slippers?

shysal Fri 27-Nov-15 18:22:24

Yes. They have to have proper soles because I pop in and out to the garden in them.

How many house plants do you have?

NanKate Fri 27-Nov-15 22:09:52

Far too many to mention. DH has a thing for orchids and it is like an oriental grotto in our lounge. He sticks plants in every window.

What clothes do you wear when you want to chill out ?

Grandma2213 Sat 28-Nov-15 00:27:11

T shirt and Trackie bottoms.

Grandma2213 Sat 28-Nov-15 00:28:13

(Hmm! what did I press?)

What subject did you hate at school?

ninathenana Sat 28-Nov-15 01:11:08

Maths !!! I slipped through the net and can only do basics

Do you get on with any siblings you may have ?

shysal Sat 28-Nov-15 07:28:28

Only have one brother. We are not close, but have never fallen out.

What colour is your hair, and is it your natural colour?

feetlebaum Sat 28-Nov-15 08:14:13

That of an elderly mouse...naturally.

Duvet, or blankets and sheets?

ninathenana Sat 28-Nov-15 08:28:20

Duvet, I don't like being "tucked in"

What are your plans for today?

grannylyn65 Sat 28-Nov-15 09:01:39

I used to love being 'tucked in'
Plans involve keeping dry, don't mind wet but looks awful today! Anyone love the rain??

ninathenana Sat 28-Nov-15 09:19:48

Certainly not me !

Are you a 'planner' ir a 'last minute' type ?

Bellanonna Sat 28-Nov-15 09:30:45

A planner. I'm not clever enough to be last-minute

Were you in a school sports team?

soontobe Sat 28-Nov-15 09:33:37

Very much a planner.

I will use NanKate's question from before.
Are you a night owl or morning lark?

Bellanonna Sat 28-Nov-15 10:10:16

Bit out of sync there, soon

soontobe Sat 28-Nov-15 10:25:42

Yes, a x post.

I vaguely remember being in a school netball team, but not for long I dont think.

Night owl, or morning lark?

ninathenana Sat 28-Nov-15 11:20:44

I used to be a night owl, not so much now though.

Did you have a pet as a child ?

grannylyn65 Sat 28-Nov-15 11:30:56

I had two white mice

Can you sing ( well! )

soontobe Sat 28-Nov-15 14:20:36

No. I think I used to be quite good, but listening to myself lately, I dont think I can rate myself as any better than average.

Have you had to give up any hobbies due to ill health?

shysal Sat 28-Nov-15 16:19:24

Not ill health, but poor eyesight prevents me doing fine cross stitch these days.

Do you ever make your own bread?

Anya Sat 28-Nov-15 16:36:28

I did years ago, when I had an Aga, but not any more

If you could choose any country to live in, except the one you're currently living in, which one would you choose and why?

ninathenana Sat 28-Nov-15 21:01:45

I have a nephew in Canada. He loves it there, I'd like to try.

What would you do if you could be invisible for a day ?

shysal Sat 28-Nov-15 21:21:39

I would probably do something nasty to SIL to punish him for hurting DD and DGCs so badly. He is currently away at the Grand Prix, having paid no child maintenance for weeks.

Do you watch the X Factor?

Bellanonna Sat 28-Nov-15 23:44:52

Understandable shysal

No, never seen the X Factor

But I do watch I'm a celebrity ( no accounting for taste) blush
