Describe something you learned in high school. You’re asking me to go back 53 years, fortunately I can, yet nothing of an educational nature comes to mind. Other than Paris being the breadbasket of France. Our Geography teacher believed that if you used knowledge and humour together, children would recall more. She told us thatContinueContinue reading “Proof of Memory”

Describe one positive change you have made in your life. I didn’t just change my life completely, I changed myself completely. As you are your life I obviously started with changing myself. I was raised in an unenlightened day and age, broadly speaking, there have always been enlightened people calling out in the wilderness, butContinueContinue reading “Total Change”

What’s the most fun way to exercise? Seriously I don’t hate exercise, if it’s right I love it. I enjoy walking. I used to run everywhere when I was young, as if I had to race to the future to learn more. But honestly? By the time I’m ready for a gym trip I’m alreadyContinueContinue reading “Lying Down”

What book could you read over and over again? Unless it’s Pride and Prejudice, but then I’m more likely to watch a film nowadays. However, I am an author re-reader. Mainly into thrillers with a comedy element, but one of my absolute favourites was: The Seven Sisters series, by the late and much lamented LucindaContinueContinue reading “I’m not a re-reader”

If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why? I’m being a bit of a Tom Cruise here, and before I start let me say that I love the guy. I don’t judge his private life as I don’t judge via media accounts. He’s a talented and versatileContinueContinue reading “Cruisette”

What animals make the best/worst pets? We have cats but were both raised with dogs, I’ve also had guinea pigs, although like most enthusiastic young children I was the world’s worst pet parent. That still bothers me over 50 years later, but as with these things, I learned a lot. I don’t like to weighContinueContinue reading “I Don’t Judge”

What job would you do for free? It’s the only form of leadership that I really consider worth doing. It can’t come with ideas of power because you need others to make it work. If you bring in a power dynamic you’ve lost, both in reality and in your soul. It has to be aboutContinueContinue reading “World Peace Leader”

What Olympic sports do you enjoy watching the most? I’m not much into the Olympics. I was interested in the London Olympics because they were in the UK, but I enjoyed the spectacle of the opening more than the actual events. I can get excited about some events but my interest really doesn’t have theContinueContinue reading “Un-sporty Rules”

How would you improve your community? Sorry I know I’m a boring political creature so I will keep this brief and painless. Love it or hate it, and I love/hate it, politics affects every area of our lives. As such, if I wanted to improve communities I would start with the numpties in Parliament andContinueContinue reading “By Improving Politics”

How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic? Image from nationalcovidmemorialwall.org My life is very much as it was before. My husband was always able to work from home, so he did that at little more after the pandemic, and was lucky enough to be able to continue as normalContinueContinue reading “No Real Change”
