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?

Do you do any at-home beauty treatments?

What do you think of tv amnesty for non paying over 75s?

lovebeigecardigans1955 Wed 17-Feb-21 14:50:52

It's a good idea if there's a valid reason for not paying - but the vulnerable will probably be targeted instead of the criminal.
