Friday Feast

Appetizer
Who is your favorite news anchor/reporter? Why?
I like Bill Turnbull. BBC Brreakfast news, because his sense of humour is apparent and because he is not afraid to make a fool of himself. He is happy to have a go at most things including Strickly Come Dancing (Dance with the stars for US)

Soup
Name 3 foods that are currently in your freezer.
Chicken - there is always chicken.
Ice Cream - a big tub
Vegtables - all kinds because they're my nod to healthy eating.

Salad
If you were to have the opportunity to name a new town or city, what would you call it?
I'd really have to think hard, it would depend on where it is. Mountain region, surrounded by countryside. Or I could be totally egotistical and name it after myself :)

Main Course
What will most likely be the next book you read?
There are a few stacking up.
Labyrinth by Kate Mosse
Da Vinci code - yep I still haven't read it
Or course the next Harry Potter
and I want to read King Lear before I go and see it

Dessert
What's the first thing you notice about the opposite gender?
Smell! It's what I notice about everyone. I really can't cope with the unwashed smell.

Friday Feast 23 Feb 07

Appetizer
Where on your body do you have a scar, and what caused it?
Where do I start? I am covered in scars. Lots are horse induced! My best on is on my top lip, where I got kicked in the face by a rearing horse. My boy's big half sister. Same Dad, she got her Mum's temper.

Soup

What is something that has happened to you that you would consider a miracle?
One time - before mobile (cell) phones were common but were just becoming reasonibly priced. My car broke down on a lonely country road. I was at least 3 miles from the nearest civilisation and the road is not that busy. About 5 mins later car came by and stopped.

There's me a 25yr old woman on my own having a major panic attack because 1. Do I get out and start walking? 2. No one is looking for me until at least 10pm and this was about 6pm 3. A car has just stopped - I have no idea who the people in it are!

The people in the car were a lovely elderly couple who took my Mum's and my brother's phone numbers. Drove to the nearest village and phoned them for me. They refused my offer of money for the phone call and said if they couldn't get through they'd come back and let me know. With in half an hour I had my Mum and a breakdown truck with me. I am sure that kind elderly couple were angels. in the whole time I was stuck I didn't have another vehicle go by.

Salad
Name a television personality who really gets on your nerves.
This will probably not translate into US for apologies for it but Anysley Harriott really really really... He's a TV chef, unfortunately it's hard to get away from him because although it's possible to avoid the programmes he's on he is also in the adverts.

Main Course
What was a funny word you said as a child (such as "pasketti" for "spaghetti")?
I have never been told of any I said but there are some daft family words

Cutter grass - Lawn Mower, curtesy of my big brother Wolvers - wolves from two of my nephews Wellow - yellow from my youngest nephew Just remembered that I could never say soldier and always said shoulder. So my brother was a shoulder.

Dessert
Fill in the blank: I have always thought ______ was ______.

LOL see above - my brother was a shoulder!

Can I have I have always thought God was great?

War was/is not the answer

Friday Feast 16th Feb

Appetizer
What sound, other than the normal ringing, would you like your telephone to make?
Hmmmm my mobile (Cell) phone plays the theme from the Black Beauty TV series. Called Galloping home. My work phone ribbits like a frog!

Soup
Describe your usual disposition in meteorological terms (partly cloudy, sunny, stormy, etc.).
Overcast with sunny spells? Today I am anyway. But being a Brit I am very like our weather and am changable :D

Salad
What specific subject do you feel you know better than any other subjects?
How to look busy without doing any actual work!

Main Course
Imagine you were given the ability to remember everything you read for one entire day. Which books/magazines/newspapers would you choose to read?
Anything and everything that isn't trashy.


Dessert
If a popular candy maker contacted you to create their next confection, what would it be like and what would you name it?
It would have to have chocolate and nuts and something a little chewy like nougat, what about a little mintyness in there as well? Name would need to contain Celfyddydau, obviously. Gelf's minty nut suprise?

I can read music and learnt the recorder as a child. I'd love to be able to play more then one note at a time on the piano and something like the harp would be cool

Soup
Have you ever mistaken a person for someone else?
Often! But not for a whole converstation, just the sort of thing when you day "oh look theres XYZ" but it's not. Or shouted someones name but it wasn't them.
