If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why? I thought about anyone else but I couldn’t come to with one person I would want to be. This is me as the song says. It’s who I want to be. I would like though to be able to goContinueContinue reading “The Person I Really Am”

Describe the most ambitious DIY project you’ve ever taken on. I hate DIY. I can barely be bothered to decorate the house. I have times when I really feel like doing it and maximise them as much as I can. The last time I did three rooms in a month. But that feeling only arrivesContinueContinue reading “I’m Sorry What?”

If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? War is a bad word, but two words put together ‘stop war’ are good. If you banned the word war you’d only get conflict, or special operation. Or even ‘you made me do it even though I started it’.ContinueContinue reading “I Have no Idea”

What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months? One person’s challenge is another person’s area of complete disinterest. What makes one person feel challenged another person may not even notice. My challenge For 40 years I fought acute anxiety that was enough. As a result I like a quiet steadyContinueContinue reading “What’s a Challenge?”

What advice would you give to your teenage self? I was raised in a family so certain that they were right that it took me a long time to discover just how wrong they were. I had to step out of line so far that I was thrown out of the family by my ownContinueContinue reading “You Are NOT Your Parents”

What is your favorite drink? I honestly don’t know. I guess the closest I come is lime flavoured sparkling water, no sugar or sweeteners. I drink some alcohol but nothing stands out. I drink back coffee if I want something hot, the occasional cup of tea, a latte if I’m out. To be honest I’mContinueContinue reading “Ermmm”

Who are your favorite people to be around? Happy, life affirming people. The human tendency is to focus on what’s not right in the world, and frankly it’s not a wonder at this time. It’s very hard to stay positive with everything that’s going on. The wars, political garbage instead of world leaders getting onContinueContinue reading “Happy People”

Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you. In my bare feet I wander through realms I never expected to see. Places where no shoes are required. Where the ground is so soft and the air so light, you don’t need to be weighed down by shoes. It’s like theContinueContinue reading “Truly a Story”

Write about your approach to budgeting. My dad taught me years ago that you work out all your regular outgoings, mortgage, utilities, etc., and then you immediately subtract them from your monthly wages, no matter when they’re due in a month. That way what you have left tells you exactly what you have available toContinueContinue reading “My Dad’s”

Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you? I used to be. I used to be proud to be British. No longer and probably not for the reasons many would think. It’s just too divisive a feeling. In the family of humanity no nationality is any better than another? Most countries have somethingContinueContinue reading “Not Anymore”
