60 Questions | Part 2

Tuesday, November 12, 2019


Following on from Part 1, here are the remaining 30 Q&As.

31. What is something you're tired of?
Assumptions. Because they are usually based on the persons own feelings and experience, and have nothing to do with actual facts of the situation, meaning assumptions are usually wrong.

32. What is a city you want to visit?
Rome, Venice, Barcelona, Istanbul...

33. Heels or flats.
It's flats more and more these days, I've grown to love comfort more than pretty heels. I still have a few pairs of heels but they're rarely worn.

34. Where does one go on a perfect road trip?
It's got to be the States.

35. What do you do on a rainy day?
Stay inside. Work, read, knit, put the kettle on (although this sounds a lot like most days, no matter what the weather).

36. What is your favourite exercise?
Yoga and walking.

37. What was your worst subject at school?
I don't think I was particularly bad at anything but I struggled with maths more than more creative subjects. CDT Technology was my worse GCSE result, but that's because I didn't really pay attention, and just played with Lego in the lessons.

38. Which animal do you identify with most?
A cat. I like sleep, warmth and solitude. And I particularly like it when someone serves me my supper.

39. What do you usually eat for breakfast?
Porridge made with almond milk and sweetened with honey. 

40. What do you usually eat for dinner?
I try to cook lots of different things but pasta is a regular feature.

41. Cooking or baking?
I cook almost everyday. Sometimes I really enjoy it, other days it feels like a real chore. I don't bake very often and I have to be in the mood to do it, so both and neither.

42. Favourite Baked goods?
I like pecan and maple twists, donuts, the list is long and there's no one thing I always go for.

43. What is something you wish you could be good at?
Swimming and diving. I can swim, but not elegantly and I can't dive at all.

44. Skiing or surfing?
I'd like to try both before I answer that question.

45. First celebrity crush?
Shakin' Stevens

46. Most recent celebrity crush?
I'm not sure. I suppose Tom Hardy is appealing.

47. What colour was your prom dress?
It was called a Graduation Ball rather than a Prom, and I went to two. One dress was black, the other burgundy.

48. How do you manage stress?
Taking a break, doing something I enjoy - reading, knitting, or watching a film, with a cuppa, followed by a long hot bath, and possibly a glass of wine or a G&T.

49. What do you do to relax?
Same as the above. I believe managing stress is about taking time out, time to relax.

50. Shoes or bags?
Shoes. I have plenty of both but I probably get more excited about buying shoes.

51. How do you know if you’re in love?
I knew I was in love when I couldn't stop thinking about him, and I realised I felt completely at ease with him, and with him was the only place I wanted to be.

52. Who do you turn to when you’re sad?
My husband.



53. What are you most enchanted by?
Sunshine, swaying fields of wheat, the sea, stunning scenery. I guess that makes the short answer 'nature'.

54. What is your biggest strength?
I'm adaptable and resourceful. And recent years have taught me that I'm stronger and more resilient than I realised.

55. What is your biggest weakness?
I worry.

56. What are 3 words to describe living in your city?
I don't live in a city. I live in a small village. It's quiet, pretty, and open.



57. Cutest thing on planet Earth?
My cats of course.

58. Favourite colour?
It changes. At the time of writing, it's orange.

59. Favourite time of day?
Early morning. Pottering around in my PJs, drinking that first cup of tea, with an entire day ahead full of possibility.

60. Favourite band?
Currently it's Ward Thomas.


That's the end of Part 2.  Let me know if you answer these, I'd love to read your answers.

  3. I never had you down as a worrier. I consider you to be one of those 'all knowing and peaceful people who take things as they are because they are wise'.
    Very romantic about your husband.
    It's unusual for people to have a varying favourite colour.
    Yes, agree that nature is utterly enchanting. Hypnotic really xx

    1. Ha! I'm glad I come across as sorted and wise! In my 30s I started to really examine the worrier in me, I realised I worry about not coping with a situation, or worry about what could go wrong. This means I can be prepared, so whilst I don't see being a worrier as a positive thing, I think I can turn it on it's head and use it to my advantage. It allows me to approach situations feeling prepared, and more relaxed. So, whilst I wish I didn't worry, I don't think it holds me back, it just takes up a lot of brain space!
