Brilliant answers and so funny.
I'm always making myself late by faffing about with my writing, which reminds me, I should be making supper.
I like your snacks!
You were a groom? Cool!
(I love these memes)
Great answers. I'm so pleased that I am partly responsible for two of the books on your list!!!
Debs - Ha ha! It's so easy to do, though, isn't it? (And I'm not talking about making supper!)
Lane - Are there any others? And yes, being a groom was cool, all right, bloody freezing most of the time!
Helen - Wholly responsible, my dear, wholly responsible!
I am so with you on the chocolate thing. Are there other snacks available?
I'm wondering about the complaint letter to the dentist. I do hope it was on the administration side and not 'in the chair' side.
Thanks for the tag. Looking forward to doing this one.
Maddie, Oooh, no, in the chair I'm afraid. Nasty story. No doubt more to follow as and when.
I've never thought of Surrey as unbearable before. It always sounds very net-curtainy...
Spiral - Yeah, that's why it was unbearable...!
You gave up being an electronic-component assembler? I don't understand....
Why can I relate to everyone's bad habits? I must have loads.
Thanks for the tag - I'll get m'thinking cap on :o)
Am with you on the chocolate!
And what pray is wrong with Surrey! Net curtains, not in my neck of the woods, more like iron bars, I jest :) TFX
Karen - It was a great job, actually, I really enjoyed it, except for having to listen to Gloria Honeyfoorrd on the radio every afternoon ;-)
Womag - It counts as one of your five-a-day, you know?
TF - I could have lived with that - somewhere where people turn away from the window when you walk past...
Chocolate, yes, it's made of beans, isn't it, so it's definitely healthy.
Zinnia - Ah, yes, beans! Ha ha ha!
