    Whats the longest book you've read?

    Ken Follet, The Century Trilogy. A really good read of 3 very long books.

    Are you able to tell by looking at a person you know, how they are generally feeling?

    DIY. I struggle with it but get it done, perhaps not to a high standard though.

    Have you ever painted a room? If so, were your corners straight?

    I'd rather not get involved than referee.

    Do you find it hard to be the first to say sorry after an argument?

    Saturn is a planet but we don't call it planet. It has a name.

    We had a family gathering at the weekend, one of my nieces had her boyfriend at it, he did both and never shut up, obnoxious pcrik.

    Have you ever told any of your relatives their partner/spouse is absolutely revolting.

    How about 'I don't give a fcuk about anything you or self appointed celebs do or have to say, now fcuk off you annoying bastard media'.

    Do hybrid words like 'brexit' 'staycation' and especially the joining together of 'celebrity' couples names get on your tits?

    That could work!

    Ye they are getting a bit much now especially the celebrity couple ones.

    If you get stung by a nettle, do you look out for a Dock Leaf to soothe it?

    I don't think the nettle needs soothing after it's stung me.

    If you hit and injured a wild rabbit would you take it to a vet and have to pay for it's treatment or possibly disposal or 'take care of the situation' by other means?

    I don't know what I would do in that situation. You're turning me off learing how to drive :/:)

    I was the passenger in a car before and we were driving late at night on a country road. It was really dark and we were coming down a hill and a deer jumped out. Just missed it, thankfully. Did you ever knock down an animal when driving?

    11%

    O+ like half the country. There are certain things I like and certainly plenty I don't but I don't think I have a type.

    Do you think attractive people get to eat more crisps in bed without facing the consequences?

    I was in the chemist's and was up next. Someone came in and then the counter was free up they went. 'woooah there lady' says I. 'I'm not standing around here admiring the scenery.' Really asserted myself there. Showed her.

    I haven't heard those words used by kids. I'd probably let them away with nifty but I'd have to call them out on use of the word snazzy.

    Did you give friends a lift on your bike when you were a kid by using the "crosser", "backer" and the handlebars?

    Some. I have a tiny little scar on my forehead from when I was about 5 or 6 and I fell off my bike. I wouldn't mind, I wasn't even cycling it. I saw my mam coming round the corner and went to wave and the handlebars twisted and I fell :)

    I was at a bungee jump thing a few years ago and some people couldn't go ahead with it so when they were brought back down, they had to do the walk of shame. Did you ever have to do a walk of shame like that?
