Neither! I get so bored watching the Olympics, I don't know why, I used to love it as a kid!

What's your favorite comfort food? Mine is my mom's home-made spaghetti sauce & meatballs

Currently: Branston beans on toast with Warburtons thick white bread

Tea, coffee or neither? (I am a 'neither' )

Louise

I'm a coffee person and none of that awful decaf stuff either - for me, coffee is all about waking you up! Also I don't like the taste of decaf. Nice and strong with plenty of milk for me.

I'm not a tea drinker - I maybe have it a couple of times a year.

What is your favourite alcoholic drink? (mine is Baileys and for added yumminess, put about 6 shots in a tall class and top up with milk!!!!!!)

Champagne, But not the dry stuff I like a nice fruity flavor and also Sloe Gin with Sierra Mist in crushed ice.


Do you like Beer/Ale? Not me can't stand the stuff.

I do like beer, especially one called "Riggwelter" from the Black Sheep Brewery in Masham, N. Yorks.


What colour is your bedroom?

Mostly white as I rent, but my furniture is pink and my curtain ties are purple

How many pairs of shoes do you own?

3 if you count my slippers! I have a pair of slip on trainer type things with stars on and a pair of red Dr Martins (that were my wedding shoes!! ) and my comfy slippers!
I hate shoe shopping..... I have big feet and I can never ever find something that I like that comes in my size, so I avoid shopping for shoes unless its really really needed!

What are you having for dinner today?? we are having Jacket potatos and I've baked some banana bread for after.... it smells yummy!

5...... 2 are for good dress one light color one dark(rarely used) One work shoes, One everyday run around shoes, and One for exercise.


Do you use make-up daily, ocassionally, or not at all? I never use it don't even have any in the house that is mine. Daughter has loads and does well with it.

Oh no I was posting at the same time as you.

Haven't decided yet what we will have.

3 and 5 pairs of shoes?? my goodness.. I have so many I can't even count in my head.. although I have 3 or 4 that are in heavy rotation as everyday work shoes.

I don't wear makeup very often. Certainly not daily, and I am sure there are some weeks I don't wear any at all. My mother didn't either.. something I must have picked up from her.

Reality TV.. whats your opinion? Love it? Hate it? Love some/ Hate some?

Hate it.....so stupid there is nothing real about any of it.



Modern cartoons do you watch them and do you think they are even funny? I don't get them I watch the classics like Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd.

By modern cartoons, do you mean something like The Family Guy or The Simpsons? I'll watch those for background noise if there's nothing else on, The Family Guy is funny but sometimes is too "out there" I also like Home Movies, it's on Adult Swim on the cartoon network.

On a side note, I am shocked at the 3 and 5 pairs of shoes answers!!!!!!!!!! I have so many I had my dad come over and build me an organizer in my closet, and they still don't all fit!!!!!!

What's your favorite season? Mine is spring......we're almost there!!!

Autumn

What are you doing tonight?

Side note: So am I. I have three...SHELVES of shoes.

I have been watching telly (Hairy Bikers) and browsing the forum. Next, is make a cuppa for DH who has been making up flat-pack cupboards for our new bathroom, and then go to bed early(ish), for a change.



Do you DIY or get a man in???

BOTH!!! I cry at my daddy to "boo it for me" then I stick my nose in and ask if I can do that bit!

What is your fave emoticon?

This one:


How many books have you got? (I am over 2000, for sure...)

Several hundred but if you add in all the books that are the kids then it goes up quite a lot.


What is your favorite movie and how many times have you watched it. Mine is Gone with the Wind and I have seen it about 356 times.

My favorite film is The Lost Boys (vampire movie) I first saw it when I was about 8 and its been my favorite film ever since (i'm 31 now) I must have watched it hundreds of times.....I probably know the whole script!! I love that movie

If you could have any car ever to own, what would it be?!

Oops, was posting at same time as Charmed - OK, answer to car question - at the moment it would have to be a Jaguar XK120 or a Mark II Jaguar.

On the movie, at the moment it would be The Three Musketeers (and the Four Musketeers) - the 1970s version starring Michael York as D'Artagnan. I've seen both of those probably 15-20 times.

What was the last book you read?

I am currently reading "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" by Dee Brown - it's about Native American history, which is a subject that fascinates me. OH bought me the book for Christmas a couple of years ago and the televised version was actually on TV a few weeks back so I'm reading the book for the 2nd time.

What job do you do and do you love it, hate it, or somewhere in between?
(I am a fleet manager for an engineering company and I like my colleagues, but I'm not keen on my actual duties).
