Getting up/Housework

What part of your routine do you always try to skip if you can? I’m a night owl, my natural body clock means I don’t go to sleep until after midnight as a rule, tend to wake about 8, but have always had to psych myself up to face the day. As soon as darknessContinueContinue reading “Getting up/Housework”

Anton du Beke

Who is the most famous or infamous person you have ever met? Image from bbc.co.uk I’ve been to see many famous people, but Anton is the only one I can say that I’ve met, and I met someone totally unexpected.

It means everyone is joyously happy, well fed, cared for,ContinueContinue reading “I Want to be Cheery”

History

What was your favorite subject in school? Trouble is it’s scaring me now. I took history to degree level, where I learned that it isn’t about the past, it’s about applying the lessons of the past to the present to understand what’s going on, and predict the future as accurately as possible. One professor toldContinueContinue reading “History”

Badly

How do you manage screen time for yourself? I may be a wrinkly but if it’s modern it fascinates me. As soon as mobile phones appeared my fingers started to itch. I needed to know what this was about. Plus I did live in the country having moved from London, where there was a telephoneContinueContinue reading “Badly”
