Ask the Person-Below-You a Question: Festive Edition!

I thought that your post said “table” Molly ?
No, not on tablet, on dining table.

Has your car been in the car wash lately?

No, hardly in use these days.

Do you still have Christmas leftovers?

I still have some red cabbage in redcurrant sauce and vegetarian pigs in blankets that I haven't cooked and I need to make some more mince pies!

When was the last time that you went properly out for NYE? Where did you go?

Years ago I would think. We went for a curry with my sister and BiL

Have you ever been on a cruise?

No I haven't! That's a brilliant idea for a thread! I could go and on about the pros and cons, I've given it loads of thought! I'd like to go on a Scandinavian one, as an entry level one. I don't like hot weather.

I'm going to repeat your question BBb ( hey, it's my thread!) have you been on a cruise?

No, but if I did I would like to go on a river cruise starting in Cologne and along the Rhine to the wine region and onwards to somewhere like the Danube if possible.

Do you have a favourite sandwich?

Got to be cheese and pickle I think with a coating of Marmite!

How soon do you step on the scales after Christmas?

Yesterday! Tuesday

Oops forgot to ask
What Christmas Day dessert did you have?

Boringly, Christmas pudding with clotted cream.. It was ok, just a bit dry.

Are you going to plant a tree in your garden, or elsewhere?

Yes, I have a birch waiting for the snow to disappear.

Do you have any plans to arrange a future holiday?

Got Christmas in New York on hold until after the pandemic. We ought to have been there in November, with a seven day return voyage on Queen Mary 2. We cancelled, but rebooked for 2021. Here's hoping!

4

FannyC yes I have been on several. Love Norway. We could go there forever

Answer to previous ?

No. I wanted to but had to wait in for a delivery (?) and now it’s too late!

Are you staying up until midnight to see in the New Year?

Maybe, but even if we are in bed we will have the TV or radio on. My priority will be keeping my cat calm when the fireworks start.
