Most definitely, in many ways we are going backwards.

We had a lovely boat trip yesterday.
When did you last go on a river boat trip ?

I usually just delete but I should just unsubscribe as it is easy to do.

Do you feel that the rights of women are being eroded?

It’s difficult. I don’t mind being outdoors when it’s sunny, for walks, or the odd bit of gardening, or painting the fence but I can’t just sit outside in the sun for longer than about 10 minutes. But I do think I’m wasting the good weather.

Are you good at unsubscribing from emails that arrive from companies/websites you once bought something from?

No, but rather fancy it, although the sound of water might keep me visiting the loo…

Do you feel guilty staying indoors when it’s sunny? (I do)

I dont have any regular bedtime. Anytime between 2-4 am. But i do have a nap during the day.

Do you have a water feature in your garden?

I always wanted one but never got around to organising it.

Ever watch tennis or any other sport, except football , for the legs ?

So what time is sleep time?

Perhaps Edwardian?

Are you watching the tennis? And who might you want to win?
Me? Anyone but Djokovic. Can’t stand his smug smile

Frank Herbert, author of the SF novel Dune. I read it back in the 1970s and was immediately hooked.

If you could choose another era to live in (before the 1950s) which one would it be?

I would like to have lived in the Belle Epoque but only as someone rich. Life was miserable for the working class then.

Anything bad happening to my children.

If you could have dinner with any author, dead or alive, who would you choose? (Emily Bronte)

My favourite hobby is trying to find a hobby I really really like!

What is your worst nightmare ?

The best hobby I had was rug making. So relaxing and you get a lovely rug out of it.

What is your favourite hobby?

No, not at all. I’m not a photo person at all. I don’t have any on show either. Oh, except for one of the dog!

I’d really like to develop a hobby.
Can you recommend me one?

Neither really, but as no choice, domestic science.

Do you have a large collection of photographs?

English Lit, followed by art.

Us girls did domestic science. The boys carpentry. Which would you have preferred, regardless of sex ?

No I only had music lessons at school for a short time. My GM had a piano but I was not taught to play it.

What was your favourite subject at school?

For some odd reason (because I was never a big Beatles fan) its Yellow Submarine!

Did you ever have piano or music lessons as a child?

I never did because I was hopeless with musical instruments - never even learned to play the recorder! However I did have a good singing voice and was in the school choir.

I can put photos on my phone and send by email to the laptop and then to this site (and MN) in a round-about fashion but now it won't accept them - says they're too big.

I can't cope with high temperatures in Britain, let alone those higher temps elsewhere.

Is there a song running through your head at the moment? If so what is it?

I still dont think the cameras in any phone are up to the quality of a good SLR. I have several cameras I use (I run an antiques business) and transfering the photos from a memory card to the computer (via memory card reader) is quick and easy. Of course you can simply email the pictures direct from a phone for a few quick shots. I tend to take 200-300 at a time in a typical photo shoot.

Been reading about terrible heatwaves in Japan and India! 35 - 40 degrees! Could you cope with heat like that? I couldnt.

India. It has always fascinated me and I feel a connection with it for some reason. I love the clothes, the colours, the dancing.
Never had the chance to visit, and never will now.

Do you know how to put photos from your phone into your computer? Is it easy?

Unfortunately no ... email, WhatsApp or text ... saying that cost of stamps are much too expensive to do it on a regular basis ... although occasionally I will send a 'thinking of you' card with a message in it , as sometimes need to be more personal that a phone message

What country would you like to visit that you have never visited & why ?

Planner here too.I make lists of lists

Do you still write letters?

A planner - before bedtime I always write a To Do List, but more often than not, all the best made plans ……….

Don’t enjoy it, never have but find it convenient.

Are you a planner or a day by day person?

I dont drive but I would imagine thick fog would be mine.

Do you enjoy driving or just regard it as a means to get from A to B?

Mine was being in the middle of forest fires caused by the heat and having to drive down roads with fire in either side in order to get out.

Which is your least favourite weather condition for driving.
Mine is fog though ice comes a close second.
