Ask the Person Below You a Question: Spring Edition!

Omg! I hated PE with a passion, and more or less refused to do it!
I made such a nuisance of myself in PE lessons that in the end the PE teacher gave in and I did extra art instead!
Otherwise I was a model student!

What was your favourite school dinner?

Climbing the ropes. It was the only thing I was good at, though my fear of heights was a bit of a drawback.

Would you drive further than your local supermarket to buy a food you like and what would it be?

Oops, sorry FC I didn’t realise there was another page.
favourite school dinner -cheese pie. Bakewell tart.

How far would you drive to get a special food, and what would it be?

Fish and chips at a favourite place in Torquay. About 15 miles from here.

Do you use any of those delivery services like Deliveroo etc?

Molly don't worry! I do that aswell - it happened with the wedding question too
I loved school cheese pie too. I wonder what the recipe was...

No, I haven't used deliveroo, but I do have fish and chips delivered on occasion.

Which supermarket to you favour?

Tesco and that’s really only because I don’t drive and it’s within a five minute walk of my house

Do you diet?

Absolutely not!
I'm overweight, but it's because I buggered up my metabolism by being anorexic when I was younger.
I didn't 'diet' as such - I just didn't eat. I didn't even notice it really... mad.
I still only eat one meal a day.

Do you enjoy parties?

No not really, but I keep an eye on my blood sugar level and weight and cut back when necessary (at least a couple of times a year like post Christmas and post holiday when I’ve indulged without really noticing ?).

Do you go to bed before midnight?

Yes but not as much as I used to. Not so many these days and much more sedate ( and boring)

Are you a sweet tooth?

X posts Fanny sorry

I enjoy smaller gatherings where you can chat with other party invitees, not so much big parties with loud music where comversation is difficult.

Do you go to bed before midnight?

Ignore mine go with nanna8

Are you a sweet tooth?

I don't have a sweet tooth - I would rather eat crisps.

Do you consider yourself to be a 'happy person'?

I certainly do. And a fortunate one. I do work hard at concealing the few sadnesses I have.

Is your central heating switched off?

I switch it on when needed as the timer doesn't work - it thinks it's 6 o'clock all the time. It has been on for a couple of hours some evenings as it's still a bit nippy.

How far do you have to go to cast your vote?

I did postal but I did see a long queue at our local town hall in the High Street. It was bitterly cold and suspect these conditions may have deterred some. Hope not.

Are you having much success with seed sowing this year?

Do what? ?

Favourite soft drink?

San Pellegrino blood orange ? yum!

Do you have a skincare routine?
If so, which products do you use?

No seed sowing Kim.
Only skincare routine is Ponds cold cream, really love it, not only for removing makeup, but moisturising.

Did you or do you get on with your mother in law/in-laws?

My MiL was lovely. A really nice gentle woman. I have many fond memories of her

.

What is your favourite bread?

Co-op irresistible cheddar and jalapeno bloomer or the coop sourdough. They do they nicest bread.

What is your star sign?
Do you have the typical traits of said star sign?

Yes, once I’d got used to her wanting to do housework every time she visited (and I’d already done extra because she was coming). She was lovely with the children too and would say, “Send them to me and have a little time for yourself.” I really missed her.

Do you/would you go on holiday with your other family members?

Yes - One of the best holidays I ever had was in a beautiful villa on a Greek Island with my own family and our sister-in-law and her family. Wish we were there now!!

Where do you wish you were now?

I suppose I am exactly where I wish to be which is comfortably at home - not very adventurous but never mind. Going places isn't the same as a widow. To answer a forgotten question about star signs - yes I'm a typical Capricorn but not too interested in status symbols.

How do you like your tea or coffee?

I like both tea and coffee very weak no sugar


Are you surprised by the election results?

Yes. I'm surprised and disappointed that Labour have done so poorly.
But I haven't been as interested in this election as I usually am; so I think that this may have been the case for many people.

What is your star sign?
Do you have the typical traits of that sign?
