Ask the Person Below You a Question: Spring Edition!

No, just hate it, am not domesticated at all, but when I used to iron for the family, didn’t mind that too much.

Do you have an Alexa and if so, do you like it and what do you mainly use it for?

Cold for me especially if it was one of those places which also get a lot of clear skies. You can always put more clothes in the cold but little you can do if it’s hot and I loathe air con.

Is there any part of housework that you actually like?

If you either had to live in a permanently hot climate or permanently cold which would you choose? Mine would definitely be cold

Lundy Island

I'm off sick long term, and I'm going to have to take early retirement or something or other soon. Yes, I do miss my job (teaching)

What was your best ever holiday?

I can only do basic stuff. I would rather sew.

If you are retired do you miss your job ?

Yes anything and everything.

Can you crochet?

Mostly but not if they are really long

Do you knit ?

Feels like it some days!

Do you have a quick read through previous posts (eg since you last post) before you post you next question? (To try not to repeat a question)

I dont use sugar or sweeteners.

Are you "addicted" to Gransnet, I spend more time on here since lockdown.

Ice cold orange and lemonade to drink, and I think I'll have a vegetarian ploughman's with fresh crusty bread. That should all go down nicely thank you.

Do you prefer sugar or sweeteners?

I was going to say a horrified 'No!'
but I've remembered that I do when making tea for my dad as he likes his tea ridiculously weak; so I show his cup the tea bag and then make mine with the same bag

Let's go to the pub!
What's your tipple and snack of choice?

No.

Do you use a teabag more than once?

No. I had a Robinsons Groats tin with a slit in the lid, made by my mother. I collected silver threepenny bits in it.

Did you have a Post Office book as a child?

Did you have a red tin post box money box as a child?

Not at all as I will continue to use mask and socially distance when out and wash hands as soon as I get in

Happiest memories are Christmasses long ago when my parents and husband were alive, children were small, money was tight, but we had some wonderful times.

Are you nervous of getting out and about now that restrictions are lifting

Cleaning my fridge?

What is your happiest memory?

Love them. Raw and deep fried in tempura batter. And we ‘harvest’ our own.

How often do you clean your fridge.

Ninety mile beach- one of Victoria’s best kept secrets!

Do you like oysters?

My own! Honestly!
Either Lily (God rest her soul) or current woofer Gracie
Beautiful little angels ?
