Hello Everyone! ?
Lovely new Spring thread!?️?️???

What is your chocolate treat of choice??

Puzzler61 Mon 05-Apr-21 12:19:36

About 70% confident - not sure everyone who does their own does it correctly (as it’s very unpleasant)

Do you have any wildlife visiting your garden regularly e.g. hedgehog?

Savvy Mon 05-Apr-21 14:03:00

Yes loads, foxes, hedgehogs, rats, mice, bluetits, blackbirds, magpies etc and there's a frog out there somewhere too.

Have you had any snow today?

Buffybee Mon 05-Apr-21 14:08:45

Yes! Very strange!
Woke up to brilliant sunshine, the blossom tree in full bloom and snow on the lawn.

Do you have a favourite Grandchild.

gulligranny Mon 05-Apr-21 15:55:59

Yes, but I can't say which one!

Do you have a favourite foreign city? (Mine's Vienna)

hollysteers Tue 06-Apr-21 01:31:00

Paris (wish I had been born there!)

If you wanted children and were unable to have them, would you have considered adoption?

Kim19 Tue 06-Apr-21 07:53:11

Yes, I would have but, much to my surprise, my husband had many reservations. Happily we were very blessed with two children of our own making.

Have you a long term friendship sustained over the miles?

Billybob4491 Tue 06-Apr-21 08:16:08

Had, it was a lifelong friendship which ended rather sadly but which has left a huge gap in my life.

What did you enjoy most about your Easter break?

Scentia Tue 06-Apr-21 08:41:31

I enjoyed the fact my DS and DDiL came for a visit and we took DGS (their nephew) to the park and had the most wonderful time. I don’t see them often and it is always nice to get a visit.❤️

Scentia Tue 06-Apr-21 08:42:15

Sorry forgot my question!
What is the first thing you do in the morning?

henetha Tue 06-Apr-21 10:08:43

Put the kettle on and then head for the bathroom.

What is the last thing you do at night?

lovebeigecardigans1955 Tue 06-Apr-21 11:09:25

Read another chapter of the present book before I switch the light off.

Do you have a favourite restaurant meal which you'd choose but wouldn't dream of making yourself?

nanna8 Tue 06-Apr-21 11:17:19

Peking duck

What is your favourite gemstone?

FannyCornforth Tue 06-Apr-21 12:03:42

Oh gosh! That's a difficult one - I love them all!
Probably fire opal (which you hardly ever see for some reason) or a dark citrine.
I could talk about all things jewellery till the cows come home!

I'm having my tea from the chippy this evening. ?
What shall I order for you?

Mollygo Tue 06-Apr-21 12:10:55

Whitby whole tail scampi-but we’ve just had them for lunch as it’s so cold and I was passing the chippy on the way back from work.

Do you ever use peri-peri seasoning?

Puzzler61 Tue 06-Apr-21 15:20:16

Yes, from a food show (a while ago). DH loves it on chicken.

Do you have a haircut booked for next week when salons/ barbers re-open? (in England, not sure about Scotland, Wales & Ireland).

BBbevan Tue 06-Apr-21 15:33:46

No haven’t had a salon haircut for over a year. My DD cuts it now.

Have you had snow today ?

AGAA4 Tue 06-Apr-21 16:04:25

Yes. I was in a snowstorm on my walk. Was soaked.

Who will you want to hug first when we are allowed?

Billybob4491 Tue 06-Apr-21 16:12:58

My oldest granddaughter who I have not seen since last August.

Are you struggling to stick to a diet?

Patsy70 Tue 06-Apr-21 16:25:14

I am a size 8/10, so have no need to diet, but do try to eat healthily, whilst still enjoying the indulgences too.

Is the future starting to look brighter for you?

hollysteers Tue 06-Apr-21 18:02:26

Yes,hopefully, I want to go travelling again in the U.K. and stay with my daughter in the south.

What is the best and worst thing for you getting older?

grannyrebel7 Tue 06-Apr-21 18:27:41

No, I still weigh exactly the same as I did before lockdown.

henetha Wed 07-Apr-21 12:01:50

Um.... next question please? smile

hollysteers Wed 07-Apr-21 12:11:15

My question as above

What is the best and worst thing for you getting older?

Nannan2 Wed 07-Apr-21 12:23:34

I thought 'chomp' was NOT a new choc bar- but an old one- definitely had them years ago- my kids had them- and now they're grown up! (Oldest 41 next week, youngest 18 wk after that!) Yep, am pretty sure in U.K chomp bars have been out before.(in answer to first post i love chocolate orange)?

Nannan2 Wed 07-Apr-21 12:28:48

The best is not to have be 'told' how to be/(or 'telling your granny how to suck eggs',as the saying goes) the worst? Definitely not being as able to rush about & do as much as when younger.(&I'm not 58 yet!) - health reasons.??
