Describe a positive thing a family member has done for you. This is where I thank God for the fact that I found a spiritual path, which I know was my destiny and my purpose in this life. Otherwise this blog would be grim. It’s on record that my family situation was a disaster ofContinueContinue reading “Strength”

What is your favorite restaurant? I can’t eat these either The UK was very good for gluten free food at first, then times got hard, vegans arose, and now we can either get vegan and gluten free, or nothing. More vegans equals more money. A chocolate brownie used to be one of my favourite cakes,ContinueContinue reading “A Long Forgotten Hobby”

Where do you see yourself in 10 years? This face says to me “Really? You think I’m taking that from anyone at my age?” In ten years time I will be 77 years old. I intend to do that disgracefully with no quarter given. In my youth I was too scared to rebel, in myContinueContinue reading “Rebelling”

What are 5 everyday things that bring you happiness? First day in the garden “It’s big out there!” They’re the youngest. Then we have the middle two. Taking a rest from daddy duties The two boys took the kittens on and literally parented them. They didn’t like them out of their sight, and cried atContinueContinue reading “My Cats”

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”

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”
