Ask a Question to the Person Below: ? 6️⃣

I would like to travel to Victorian times, meet the Brontes and Oscar Wilde as I’m a bookworm.

What size shoe do you take?
Also, describe your feet.

Size 5
Feet in quite good nick. High arches, no corns., painted toenails

Do you ever go for city breaks? (We used to, but don’t niw)

I used to and loved them. London often, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Birmingham, Paris, Venice, Budapest. Not sure if I will again. It seems unlikely.

Have you tried colour streaks in your hair? Blonde? Pink?
Caramel?

I have some pink in my hair. A wash in colour that I can wash out again or make more prominent

I’m organising a weekend away for a small group of friends. We are all crafters .
Do you organise or attend weekends like this ?

Stopped ordering food in
Cut down on food treats (which are bad for me anyway)
Turning off lights not used (but I do anyway)
Cut down on household cleaning products making them last longer)
Not buying any new clothes

If you could come back as any kind of creature what would it be?

I would choose a house cat as they are SOOO entitled and people expect this and pander to them.

Always a cat, had them all my life. I would probably go for a wild puma in the mountains, though, as I like my freedom.

What is your favourite car colour?
I like that metallic dark red that Mazda do.

I've never organised a weekend away, crafting or otherwise but it sounds very enjoyable.

My favourite car colour would be silver or dark blue.

Which would be your dream car? I've always fancied an E-type Jaguar or a Lotus Elan like Emma Peel's.

We used to have a gorgeous Jaguar. It was dark blue and had the silver cat on the bonnet.
I don’t drive and don’t know much about cars, but I do much prefer old, classic cars.
I don’t like being low down though.
I think I might like a Land Rover…

What is your middle name?
Mine is Elizabeth

I always wanted to be called Elizabeth. Elizabeth had curly hair and had lots of chances to move when we played ‘letters in your name’. My middle name is almost my username.
Were you named after anyone in your family?

No I wasn't. My middle name is Elizabeth and that was after the little Princess Elizabeth, as she was then. I wish it was my first name. I have occasionally used it, just for fun.

What kind of cheese do you like? I tidied my cheese box yesterday and there was Cheddar, Brie, and St.Agur in it.
I'm going to eat up the Brie today as it's very ripe now.

Brie, for sure

What’s the furthest you have travelled and the longest travel including time at airports. Mine was to Colombia, South America - almost 48 hours

The furthest I have travelled was to Bali (back in the 1970s) and the flight time (with 2 stops) was 24 hours.

If you could go back as a time traveller and witness (as an invisible onlooker) any event in history what would it be?

I would like to find out what "really" happened in the Madeleine McCann case as there are so many unanswered questions still.

I’m a case-watcher and would like to have been hovering overhead to see who actually killed OJSimpson’s wife Nicole and Ron Goldman .

Are you into fact or fiction, in terms of books or Tv? I’m certainly a ‘fact’ person. I rarely watch a film or read a book unless it’s fact based

I’m mostly fiction if it’s historical times. I like elements of accurate history e.g. Plantagenets but I’d rather read fiction about people who lived around that time than the actual lives of the historical characters.

It’s 36° here. What makes it bearable is that I’m on holiday, our house has a pool and the shops and restaurants are air conditioned.

Would that make it bearable for you?

Shade and a pool I think, or immediate access to the sea.

It has been raining all day here, it smells really fresh outside and all the scorched and wilted plants have recovered. Amazing what nature does. That gives me a real lift. What does it for you ?

I love to see new flowers in the Spring (or any season) which are emerging successfully. At the moment it's Japanese Anemone and Agapanthus.

Same question again please.

Taking trips into the countryside and visiting market towns and cathedral cities new to me.

If you drive, are you fussy about cleaning the inside of your car?

Not really , it doesn’t get that messy anyway. Usually a few pens, crayons, and childrens books laying around.

We have a very interesting museum in our small town.
Does your town / village have a local museum ?

I live a bus ride away from the Art Galleries in Glasgows West end....I never get tired of visiting this wonderful museum...I took my children and now I take my GC...

Would you like to be invisible for a day

I would love it! Think about getting into places where you were not allowed!

If you found Aladdin's magic lamp what would your 3 wishes be?

For Russia to step back and start behaving.
For my son to buy a house with a granny flat on the side for me to live in.
For a cure for all cancers.

I burnt the toast again. I think I need a new toaster. What household item would you like to replace?

Id like to replace everything with a fully functioning robot (of the kind you see in sf films) who would do all the housework, answer the door, bring in the bins and do all the things I dont want to do. Then they would simply step back into their cupboard when I did not need them.

Dont you just hate putting the bins out and bringing them back in? They are so bl***y heavy and clumsy.

Luckily I don’t have to do it. That’s one of DHs jobs.

I hate it when companies change their website when I know how to negotiate it. Improving it they say, making it more user friendly. Not when it takes me all afternoon to work out how to use the new one.
What changes don’t you like ?

When the supermarkets completely change the layout in store and you can’t find anything. Then you just start to get used to it & they go and do the same thing all over again.

If you could visit any place or period in history just for one day what would you choose.
