• Favorite smell - a strongly fragrant rose, honeysuckle, most scented flowers.
• Last cried - dunno.
• Favorite pizza - home made with home made tomato paste and not home made mozzarella!  Mushroom and chicken and peppers . . .

• Favorite dog breed - hairy ones - collies, wantsies a rough collie, alsatians etc.  But I also love cats - Maine Coon/Norwegian Forest/British longhair - spot the theme!
• Favorite foot wear - I have to wear something?  Prefer bare foot but walking boots is the norm, or socks if it is cold indoors!
• Favorite ice cream - always test a brand's vanilla - if that's good then the other flavours probably are.  Rum and raisin - bestest.  But a proper Cornish clotted cream vanilla - slurp!

• What are you listening to - the fire crackling away.

• Can you drive a manual - pick up has front wheel drive and assorted 4x4 sections depending on terrain or weather, manual.  Have driven a big tractor (low gear - all those buttons and knobs!!!!)

Do you wear perfume - only Impulse hint of musk sometimes if I'm going out - usually it's Johnson's baby powder!
