❓?Ask a Question etc etc? 7️⃣

I used to be a worrier but have gradually turned into more' que sera sera' person. Most of the time anyway.

Do you weigh yourself at home? I used to but when the scales broke I decided not to replace them as they annoyed me by telling me lies about my weight.

Definitely a worrier!

Same question please...

I don’t have a smart meter. But, I do take regular readings

Are you a worrier or a ‘Que sera sera’ type of person?

No but I’d hate it if they had. Luckily I have considerate neighbours who would always ask first.

Have you a smart meter & are you finding yourself constantly checking it since the fuel costs have gone up.

I love cheshire and wensleydale

Have you ever had a neighbours work people come onto your property without notice or permission?

I have - it began a war between us when she told me I was "only a tenant" and she didnt need my permission.

Noise. Not those like children laughing or friends enjoying my chat .
The one like continual background noise and all the things that ping and beep.

I’ve just eaten some lovely strong cheddar cheese. What is your favourite cheese ?

I liked it a few weeks ago when it wasn’t too hot or cold.
If it had stayed like that, it would have suited me.

What do you like less and less as you get older?

A couple of years ago I bought several pairs of thermal leggings from good old M&S. As soon as it gets cold I wear them under my trousers and they keep my legs really lovely and warm.
What do you prefer really hot weather or really cold weather?
I prefer really cold weather as I so dislike being really hot

No need for any of that. I have a very warm DH.

Do you have thermal underwear for cold days ?

I like fleecy bedding too!

Have you ever used a hot water bottle or electric blanket?

I used both when I was younger and lived in a house with no central heating. Now I would find them too warm.

Every time I get to a new season, I think I love it, but spring, when the days are getting longer, is probably best.

Fleecy bedding, no need to get between cold sheets. Do you like it?

DH and I should have been going on a hot air balloon ride today. It's been cancelled. Taking the GC to Nottingham's famous Goose Fair tomorrow.

What season is your favourite (I prefer spring)

My GCs used to live nearer and we had them very often for weekends and we took them on holiday several times. Now we are 5 hours drive away and they are in their teens so we don’t see so much of them. Sadly.

A wet week is forecast.Any plans ?

My eldest GS is 20 years old and youngest is 4 years old.

I love all my GC, but I, along with the other GP, practically brought up the eldest two, because parents were working and I was much younger…..So, I felt more of a parent than a GP. As a matter of fact, at the school gates, I was once asked if I was their mother. Those were the days !!

Have you done/ are you still involved in child care/school runs for any of your GC? These days, I just do the odd baby-sitting…..no regular child-care duties

We like both . We have a caravan so self catering, we enjoy going to a cottage self catering. We also enjoy a cruise or an escorted tour in various hotels.
I think my least favourite is a holiday where you stay in just one hotel.

Our eldest DGS is just 20 years old and our youngest is 17 months.
What is the gap between your eldest and youngest Grandchild ?

Yes we went to the Maldives & Jamaica all inclusive, the food was really good. In other places like Greece I like to go out & try different restaurants.

Do you prefer a self catering holiday or staying in a hotel (Uk & abroad)

I dont feel embarassed about anything. People take it as they find it and if they dont like it I will gladly show them the door!

Have you ever been on an "all inclusive" holiday?

I never have. I can see the attraction of everything laid on if you are a family with kids but its not for me.

I feel a little embarrassed with my efforts to recover a couple of chairs - they aren't too bad, but the project was a little too ambitious for me to do as well as I'd like. Also, I'm not houseproud enough to dust as often as I should.

Same question again please,

Our leather settees. We got them about a year ago.

What are you embarrassed about in your house? (mine is my horrible bedroom)

Oops here is my question:
What are you most proud of in your home?
We had 2 new doors fitted downstairs and they are so smart and I love them!

My kitchen is about 40 years old (with a new ceramic hob as gas hob was leaking). It desperately needs renewing but I can't face the upheaval. Just before last Christmas the corner cupboard doors fell off but that doesn't look as bad as it sounds and so until maybe the oven stops working or something else major happens I am sticking with it

Too many times to recall and so nice to recover “lost” things.

Do you have a new or old kitchen?

There is only me in my household and Ive had the same outdoor shoes for years.

Do you ever misplace things and find them in completely unexpected places (and wonder how they got there?)

My inability to use my current phone as a remote so I can switch programs when DH is watching the gorier bits of the Godfather films.
Feel free to use the same question.
Or whose shoes last longest in your family?

My own inability to fix things. It's something that drives me mad. Things break or go wrong, and I'm hopeless.

Same question as it's interesting.....
