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

Yes if it grips me sufficiently.

Have you made a start back into your garden yet?

Not much, just a bit of tidying up.
But Dan-the-Man is coming next week to help me dig out an overgrown path.
And I'm looking at flower catalogues.

Have you got much arthritis? Or painful joints?

My left hip gives me 'a bit of gyp' and I worry it may be arthritic so go up and down the stairs with great care. I'm monitoring the situation - could be worse.

I think the skin of a rice pudding is a bit 'creepy.' Is there an everyday item which makes you cringe?

Skin on fish. I take it off

What colour are your kitchen cupboards ?

Brown and cream. Due for an update really, but I’m quite happy with them.

Do you like horror films?

Only ever saw one horror film and that was Psycho, that finished me off for life!

Do you have many "senior" moments?

Loads getting more & more unfortunately ?

Do you have a go to outfit? will it still fit when you can wear it again?

Not too often, it generally involves not being able to recall a name. That’s happening right now!

If you’re thinking of travelling after lockdown, where to?

Switzerland.

Have you got to know the people you pass on your daily walk if you do one?

Yes definitely, folks seem to be more sociable( at a distance of course)

No we are out early and we see hardly anyone.

Have you had COVID?

I will answer one above
No I try to look my best even when staying in .

? As above

No, nor do I know anyone who has...

Can you touch your nose with your tongue?

Yes, but I can’t do a Mexican wave with my eyebrows like my DGS.

Would you buy a really expensive watch?

Yes, although I haven’t at the moment. I have a fake Chanel?

Dark chocolate ginger biscuits.

Do you rise and go to bed at a regular time?

I wish! Once I’m not working from home again, yes.

Have you got freezing fog this morning?

No. It is a bit foggy but quite mild this morning in south Devon. Slight showers forecast.

Do you watch your local news on tv every day? The one at 6.30 on BBC1 for instance.

Yes. I'm a big fan of Riz Lateef and her colleagues on BBC London.

Do you have a favourite mail order catalogue?

There's one called 'Museum Selection' which I sometimes receive with other stuff - fabulous things but I've never ordered - I just drool over the items on offer.

Imagine you're stranded on a desert island. Who would you choose as a fellow castaway?

Jim Kalili

A cashmere blanket.
