New Lockdown Special Edition: Ask the Person Below You a Question!

Have re-engaged with some old school friends (from 40+ years ago!) on Zoom. Also used for family games and for meetings linked to volunteering. Very useful.

What film/series would you recommend that's availble to watch/stream now?

DH is watching ‘Wild Thing ‘ on Netflix, a comedy with Bill Nighy and Emily blunt , lots of well known faces, seems quite amusing!

Question, why is my Gladioli in bloom (almost) when I didn’t plant one, ever.

Why is my gladioli in bloom,

Ask old Barry Humpries, personally I find gardening truly boring, unless I can eat the results (don’t THINK you can eat Glads !

question: why is Gavin Williamson STILL in charge at the DfE ?

Best advice?
Years ago when my world fell apart a relative told me “ not to be a victim”.
I was indignant at the time but understand now. She also said to put two bin liners in your kitchen waste bin so there’s always one spare. That’s useful advice.
Mine would be “ don’t always believe what you think”.
Following on from the swimming in the sea, may I ask if anyone has ever been to a nudist beach?
On a mad whim, I challenged myself to go Brighton Nudist Beach last year.. the full Monty.

Nudist beach - no! It's a hellish thought

Q. When was the last time you skiddaddled?
A few years ago in France, I was in a shopping centre when all the lights went out and people were shouting fire / bomb and generally screaming.
A. We skidaddled as fast as we could, raced across the car park and then sat in a queue with others desperate to get out, panicking like mad.

Q. How cold would it have to be before you wear a woolly hat?

A German river cruise in very select company.

The confusion on here is making me laugh so hard!!
I have grown a few tomatoes, not very successfully!
Question - do you make a point to listen to music every day?

Yes, I grew some lettuces and was very proud of them. Unfortunately, some slugs and snails demolished them over night. The following morning I counted 38 snails in the vicinity and I'm ashamed to say I hurled them over the wall, but I was only 12.

Did you prefer English or Maths at school?

No, I don't listen to music every day.

Q ... Cat or dog lover?.

I’m loving that some of the answers are out of sync.
Eg “ How cold would you have to be to wear a woolly hat?”

“ On a German River Cruise in very select company”.

Not quite a 100% fit but I’m laughing at the scene of the “select company” cruisers wearing their finery and Mollygo turning up in a wooly hat!

Definitely English. I didn’t get my Math GCSE, until I was 35
