No, Its the one thing I miss with a modern home.



Have you booked any holidays for this summer?

No, hubby has been looking, but we often leave it late.

Do you feed the birds in your garden ?
I've stopped doing it for now, as my neighbour has seen a rat climbing up onto his bird table.

Not in the summer as we also had rats pinching the food, not helped by our neighbour's aviary which seems to attract them.


Do you still keep in touch with old school friends?

Yes , quite a few of them

Do you have any allergies ?.

Shell fish & Plaster [except micropore]

Do you have any phobias?

No (dau does ..of spiders, and taking tablets ! )

Do you do a machine wash daily ?( I have to )

I use to when I had three sons living at home [all those shirts & sports wear]


Do you try and iron everyday?

No.lol
I have an ir*ning basket . I make sure hubby has enough shirts, do most of mine at the same time , dau does her own, and unless son needs a shirt / trousers for work or a night out, I just smooth his down by hand when they come off the line ! 'Casual' doesn't need to be pressed...thank goodness !

Can you touch your toes easily .( from a standing position..lol).?

n

Not as easily as I use to but can just about manage it now.

Do you always speak the truth no matter what?

Not always, I do say a few white lies where the truth might hurt.

Sunday lunch..do you eat in or out...?
We're always in , but it can be cheaper for 2 to eat out !

n

We always have Sunday lunch at home, as our two granddaughters and their parents visit.

Do you prefer to see films at the cinema or wait for the DVD to come out ?

I'm not a film buff,so when I do see them it's either on Sky TV or DVD.

Do you buy or grow organic veg ?

I buy in preference if not too expensive. We only grow veg in growbags, at the moment we have only tomatoes & marrows missed the runner beans for some reason.


Have you any "Pick your own farms" near by?

Nearest is probably 10 miles.Never use them. We have a large garden which hubby plants,and also still own my deceased parents house which has a garden 3 times the size of ours with more fertile soil, so hubby plants both. Hard work, but keeps us in fruit and veg for ages. Just about to go and water ours.lol

Have you ever done or considered doing a parachute jump.?
My cousin, in her 70's is doing a tandem one for charity on the 26th!!

No I don't like heights, good luck to your cousin, she's braver than me.

Have you ever climbed Snowden or Ben Nevis?

She's old enough to be my mother, I'm the baby of the family...no I wouldn't do it either.
I've been up Snowden but not climbed it, it's 2 to 3 hours walk.

Have you ever been to the I O M, my dad was mad on bikes and I'd like to see the TT races...?

n

No we have never visited the IOM but would like to



Are you coping with the very hot weather ?
