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

shysal Tue 15-Sept-15 09:00:02

Not particularly.

Are you a perfectionist?

Leticia Tue 15-Sept-15 07:54:26

I don't think it matters if you have the same questions because , as said, different people answer.

I don't have phobias.

Are you interested in family history?

Bellanonna Mon 14-Sept-15 19:19:53

soon , as you say, see how it goes. Questions will be repeated but a different person will probably answer

Bellanonna Mon 14-Sept-15 19:18:50

No. I hated leaving work - I was 71 and it was what I did.
4 years on, would definitely not go back. There IS a life beyond work.

Have you any phobias? I hate lifts and only use if I have no choice, e.g. 8 flights of stairs

soontobe Mon 14-Sept-15 19:15:08

Yes. DH doesnt like to try new things much.

Did you find going into retirement easy?

soontobe Mon 14-Sept-15 19:12:35

Questions are difficult, I agree.

It has been lovely speaking with everyone. smile

I think a few have said they are happy to continue.

The rest of us could see how it goes?

I'll carry on and see what happens.

I'm feeling the same way nina. Can't think of anything else to ask?
It has been a great thread.

ninathenana Mon 14-Sept-15 17:43:00

soontobe this has been a good thread which I've enjoyed but I wonder if it's just me who has run out of questions.

ninathenana Mon 14-Sept-15 12:32:16

I'm wearing a pink skirt at the moment and I have a couple of pink tops.

Do you, like me seem to cook the same meals each week?

shysal Mon 14-Sept-15 12:02:06

Don't remember ever having one (I was a tomboy).

Do you often wear pink?

Bellanonna Mon 14-Sept-15 10:45:08

None. I just wouldn't make it

Do you still have any cuddly toys from your childhood ?

soontobe Mon 14-Sept-15 10:32:34

Mainly gravy granules.

What dish are you fed up of making?

henetha Mon 14-Sept-15 10:30:05

No,

Do you make your own gravy or just use gravy granules?

Bellanonna Mon 14-Sept-15 09:12:24

No - too expensive

Do you still attend school reunions ?

shysal Mon 14-Sept-15 08:46:17

Yes.

Do you buy/grow organic produce?

Marmark1 Mon 14-Sept-15 08:39:35

No.
Do you dislike Christmas ?

Leticia Mon 14-Sept-15 08:00:17

No- just common tea bags.

Do you send post cards when away on holiday?

soontobe Mon 14-Sept-15 07:18:27

Not sure if I put off regulars by my last post.
I will post a different question too.

Do you drink a variety of teas?

soontobe Sat 12-Sept-15 18:07:18

By the way, anyone can answer any question at any time, and are quite free to disappear again as well if they wish!

soontobe Sat 12-Sept-15 18:05:46

I reuse gift wrap paper. I think it is rather pretty and worth reusing so long as it is not too crumpled. [cue kids shock expressions>.

Have you any interests that may be considered niche?

shysal Sat 12-Sept-15 09:23:08

I am a bit of a technonumpty, just get by.

Any embarrassing thriftiness? I re-use dental floss/tape. blush

ninathenana Sat 12-Sept-15 08:30:44

Erm, I think that should say by the Thames grin

ninathenana Sat 12-Sept-15 08:29:03

We are away in an hotel on the Thames at the moment, going to walk to town later. Who knows what tomorrow holds.

Are you tech savvy or are you like me. I get by unless there's a problem ?

soontobe Sat 12-Sept-15 08:16:29

Yes, very much ditched.

DH is eating breakfast.

I dont have many plans for the weekend, so I will ask the next person.

What are your plans for the weekend?

Bellanonna Sat 12-Sept-15 07:56:03

Ugh. Some claim to fame there soon! Hope you ditched the badge! (speaking of your second (in)famous person)

Hate shopping

What are your plans for this weekend?
