Valkyrie Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Maths - I don't need to use logs or slide rules - multiplication, division, adding, subtracting and fractions are all that I needed or have ever used.

Chickvic Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Best - for the simple lack of responsibility! I didn't have to work, pay the bills, organise anything *sigh* My favourite teacher from primary was Mr Gray, I had him in Year 3 (7-8 years old) and I adored him! Who was your favourite teacher?

Looney Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I didn't have a favourite....just those that I could wrap around my little finger and get away with murder and those that I couldn't! Did you get many detentions at school? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickvic Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Cross posted! Yes, we had slow worms, rats, gerbils and mice. Looked after the slow worms at home Were you in the 'in-crowd'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Grammar which became a secondary 3 years after I started. We looked like the girls from St Trinians (should have seen me wielding my hockey stick - we ruled) - and then we had what looked like a sack with a collar and a zip. Favourite school sport?

Chickvic Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Netball - I was tall and never got picked last Do you still see school friends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzle Knit Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 One of them - we were at school together from 5 to 18 and became friends in secondary school. Seeing her this weekend in fact What have been the happiest times of your life (edited to change question as it had already been asked) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I think the happiest time of all was staying in the New Forest most school holidays with my grandparents. If I could turn back time . . . . . . what would you do (I think this has already been done, but maybe someone else might like a stab at it) - don't worry if you double up Fizzle.

Helly Welly Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I wouldn't put on 5 stone whilst pregnant as it's a lot harder to get off than put on. Trouble was, i weighed 7.5 stone when i got pregnant and pregnancy just made me constantly starving. Where do you shop?

Space Chick Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I shall answer all. Food shopping - I get my meat from an organic farmer or a fabulous traditional butcher, my veg from Riverford, my fish from a lovely fishmonger and the rest from Sainsburys. My clothes I tend to buy from Next, M&S or Principles, unless its for around the house and then its Matalan. What is your favourite shop and why?

redhotchick Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 For me it's Sainsbury's. It is a bit further than Asda, but is much less crowded, has excellent produce, I can find my way around easily and the car park is never too full or difficult to park in. Do you watch Wimbledon?

bigmommasally Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Sort of watching it with one eye, the other one is on here. Being an line judge looks a bit dangerous though. Can you play tennis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigmommasally Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Hate Football/Cricket/Golf/Basketball. My OH watches them all though Which is why he loves me being on here, he gets control of the remote control. Who controls the TV in your house?

bigmommasally Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Cream walls and carpet, Minky suite, and with various shades of teal green accents in the accessories. I love it, OH just goes along with what ever I want usually, though he would pretend that he had input if you asked him. Who does the interior design in your house?

Fizzle Knit Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I have the bigger say, although "interior design" sounds rather grand for our decorating escapades. What;s the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
