Hello Everyone! smile

Thank you for joining in with the last ATPBYAQ flowers

Welcome to a new Lockdown Special - ask the person below you a question!

Questions can be related to 'the current climate' or, if you are heartily sick to death of all that, can be to do with anything at all.

Q: What is your favourite thing about lockdown?

nanna8 Tue 09-Feb-21 07:55:21

First thing I bought was a cup of coffee- in a cafe!

Do you eat chocolate ?

Billybob4491 Tue 09-Feb-21 08:27:50

No but I buy a tiny Cadburys Creme Egg at Easter just the one and thats it..

What's the first thing you are going to do once Lockdown restrictions are lifted?

FannyCornforth Tue 09-Feb-21 09:19:22

My shopping habits haven't changed. I buy everything online all of the time.

Is there anyone in the public eye whose style you admire?

Nanny27 Tue 09-Feb-21 11:08:32

Joanna Lumley is so elegant. I swear she could turn up in a dishcloth and look good.

Have you ever written a book or short story?

hollysteers Tue 09-Feb-21 11:33:21

I love writing and have started stories(as so many people do) but life got in the way. I write a lot of poetry and keep a journal (now censoring as it will be left behind!)
I used to love making up bedtime stories for the children every night.

Do you subscribe to a magazine?

Bridgeit Tue 09-Feb-21 12:13:46

No not any more. I buy one every once in a while.

Are you addicted to TV soaps?

lovebeigecardigans1955 Tue 09-Feb-21 13:18:57

No not soaps, but I try never to miss a good quiz or gritty dramas like Line of Duty, etc.

What was your favourite food as a child.

Mollygo Tue 09-Feb-21 13:21:54

Are you ‘green fingered’?

Kim19 Tue 09-Feb-21 15:01:04

Like to think so. Certainly very enthusiastic and active.

Which drama currently on TV would you recommend?

EkwaNimitee Tue 09-Feb-21 15:25:57

I’m currently enjoying Battlestar Galactica on BBC IPlayer. They’re running all the several series. If you enjoy sci-fi.....

Are you a tea or a coffee person?

Patsy70 Tue 09-Feb-21 15:43:33

Generally, tea at home, but always coffee out.

What is your greatest achievement?

BBbevan Tue 09-Feb-21 15:47:42

Getting two degrees, and my children

What is your favourite ice cream?

Nell8 Tue 09-Feb-21 16:55:29

Oh, now you've set me off ... having a vision of a box of Waitrose Mini Belgian Chocolate Ice Creams ... variety of flavours, on a stick for handiness, not too calorific, if you can stop at one ...

Do you have a favourite radio programme?

Kim19 Tue 09-Feb-21 16:59:34
