Scroll down for the list

I admit to seven although I mutter, 'Ooof' when I get up, not when I sit down. grin

Had to google Rachel Cut. I've never had one unless it was by accident.

6 for me. though I don't eat steak at all, these days, and I haven't had a cappucino in several years, either!

8 AND YES I AM A LITTLE OLD LADY

OH AND WHEN I ASK FOR TEA IT IS BLACK NO SUGAR,

M0nica Sun 02-May-21 17:05:20

Mollygo This is where I stick my toes in and show my age. As far as I am concerned 'black coffee' is 'black coffee' and that is what I ask for.

Mollygo Sun 02-May-21 17:14:36

And why not M0nica? I bet you wouldn’t have to repeat that when you have a mask on either!?

The cappuccino question is very unsophisticated.
Everyone knows cappuccino is drunk by all ages in the morning, never after 12 and what would Italians make of the question??

GrauntyHelen Sun 02-May-21 17:26:33

8 but then there's no doubt I'm at least middle-aged at 56

Nicksmrs46 Sun 02-May-21 17:29:57

Hands up! Who’s watching the Countryfile weather forecast? ?

M0nica Sun 02-May-21 18:58:30

No, I am sending this post.

I’ve never done any of those things, except buy underwear from M&S. I’m pretty ancient but many of those things would have been old-fashioned for my parents.

Grandmajean Sun 02-May-21 19:47:43

The parking space one struck a chord. I can plan those hours in advance !

FannyCornforth Sun 02-May-21 20:02:29

But surely everyone worries about parking spaces?

I don't, the bus usually pulls in at its designated stop.

M0nica Sun 02-May-21 20:24:42

Unless I am going somewhere, where parking is known to be really difficult - I always get to the hospital an hour in advance because parking can be difficult, but that apart, I never give it a thought.
