How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life? I can’t believe how this world has de-evolved during my lifetime. How childish, unkind, and violent it has become. I find myself wondering whether it was a nicer world, or without social media you were able to be more discerningContinueContinue reading “Disbelief”

Salmon
What’s your favorite thing to cook? It’s quick, it’s easy, it’s good for you. I eat to live I don’t live to eat. I don’t go to parties or out for a meal at friends’ houses, haven’t for years. I only eat at my brother’s house and my sister-in-law is an amazing cook. I’m glutenContinueContinue reading “Salmon”
My First Computer Was…
Write about your first computer. My brain. I’ve had many technological marvels since, but none can process as much data as fast as the brain. It can think, daydream, laugh, worry, plan, people watch, write, replay songs I love, fill me with fear, fill me with love, light and laughter, return beautiful memories (and crapContinueContinue reading “My First Computer Was…”
Oddly
What’s the thing you’re most scared to do? What would it take to get you to do it? I find that the things that would scare me are also things I don’t feel the need to do. My husband once tried to persuade me to go skiing. I don’t like heights and I’m not fondContinueContinue reading “Oddly”
Humanity
What do you complain about the most? There is only one race on this Earth, humanity. We have the same problems, the same fears, the same needs. Yet we take so much pride in being right, in insulting people of other races, claiming we’re victims of prejudice and constantly insulting people of other colours, anotherContinueContinue reading “Humanity”

Sit Still
What would you do if you won the lottery? I once came into a little money after a divorce. It seemed like enough to keep me secure for life. It was gone in two years. A friend came into the same amount of money for the same reason, we warned her, she laughed, same thingContinueContinue reading “Sit Still”
All the Books
What books do you want to read? Theoretically. In fact the advent of portable technology has ruined me. I’m endlessly nosy, not into other people’s business, that’s rarely more interesting than mine, but into what’s going on in the world. I start reading something on a news site, then there’s something even more interesting, andContinueContinue reading “All the Books”
Complete blank
Write about a few of your favorite family traditions. We didn’t have any family traditions unless you consider falling out on a regular basis to be a tradition That went back at least to my grandmother’s generation and impacted down to mine. My mum once blazed my generation for it, and asking her how IContinueContinue reading “Complete blank”
Peace and quiet
What do you enjoy doing most in your leisure time? There isn’t much to do around here. I do love badminton as you know. I love seeing my sister, although it’s not quiet on either side, seeing her is always peaceful. I can be me. I used to love a mooch round the shops butContinueContinue reading “Peace and quiet”
