What is your favorite place to eat?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
It was Mission Burrito in Birmingham, which me and my girlfriend enjoyed a nice trip to. They did 3 kinds of meat, 2 kinds of vegetarian and a guest. But the bleeders closed down!?

How often do you have to charge your phone?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
I get it to 100% each day, I'd say I might be able to go two days before running out but I never take that chance since in December 2016 I was taking to my girlfriend when my phone (a very bad one that I lost a few months later, so replacing it was a blessing in disguise) chose to die out.
I darted home and got a load of enraged messages about how she hated me and never wanted to see me again and couldn't believe I had put the phone down on her!?
Eventually we recconciled but a lesson was learned. So with the old phone I literally carried plugs round with me as it often ran out, then once I lost the old phone I got a new one and never looked back! It's on 96% now so I'm dicing with death :)

What fruit do you eat the most often?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
I like lots of fruit but I'm all about the strawberries these last few weeks as it's summer!

Would you be able to live without sugar?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
I don't think so!
Our ancestors evolved to only eat sugars on very rare occasions when they harvested a lot of fruit, and we now have more sugars each day than people 2000 years ago- who were biologically almost indistinguishable from us- had in a week.
But I am now in the habit and my frame has grown taller than an ancient man, and I've already outlived most people in those days, so I need my sugars (most of which come from fruit rather than processing, but still).

Do you enjoy travelling on a ferry?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
Yes! Haven't been on one since a voyage to France in 2009 but I really enjoyed the motion of the sea and eventually sighting land, I think so anyway as it was some time ago!
I'd definitely be up for an expedition, so long as I only explore places and don't have to fight anyone?

What is the weirdest scar you have and how did you get it?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
I have a totally unexplained scar on my forehead, a place where random marks often appear and I have no idea why?

That is weird in itself.

Can you recommend anything to read?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
Depends what your interests are?
If you like history I recommend Ascendency to Oblivion by Michael McConville as it traces the decline and fall of the British aristocrats, gentleman, merchants and so on who used to dominate Ireland.
It is shaming for me to think of the wrongs that were done there by the empire, which my heroes Mr Gladstone and Mr Asquith tried albeit unsuccessfully to right, and it's a really gripping book.

What hobby would you get into if time and money weren’t an issue?

I'd be a full-time postgrad student (history) and part-time photographer.
http://dry-valleys.tumblr.com/tagged/photos would employ all the time not spent on the Home Rule Crisis of 1912-14 and I'd have a whale of a time, working hard but for fulfiment rather than in the desolating office job I have now.

Pasta and garlic bread for dinner! Yummy!

Excellent choice, friend! Don't forget a dessert :)
I had veggie burgers on toasted rye bread with butter & mnt sauce, then toasted rye bread, peau butter & jam, then some nake & trek bars.

If you were going to write a book, what would you call it and what would it be about?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
I'd call it The Old House and it would be about the long-distance walks and churchgoing I do in different places each Easter.

If you could time travel, would you go to the future or the past?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
I'd go to the 18th century and watch the industrial revolution from Arkwright's mills at Cromford, Boulton's factory in Birmingham
https://dry-valleys.tumblr.com/post/149182758369/i-sell-here-sir-what-all-the-world-desires-to
Arbaham Darby's steelworks, the Iron Bridge, the Duke of Devonshire's mines at Ecton, and everything.
I'd be a great Whig aristocrat living between 1745 who went round eating, drinking and observing things but doing no work. Then die in a cavalry charge at Waterloo. That would be a fascinating 70 year life.

If you had lots of money what would you do with it?

Retire, then move to Birmingham to be nearer my girlfriend and enrol at the university, doing my MA (and PhD?) and spending a lot more time with culture, travel and doing my blog.

I definitely wouldn't be a wastrel or idler as I'd still be working hard, but towards a fulfilling goal rather than just to make ends meet!

⚠️ I still sometimes get “crossed wires” when communicating by text or online, and it was the same when I used email regularly. On a scale of 1-5 how well do you think you communicate online? Are you always understood, and do others always understand your meaning?

CactusDoug’s Profile PhotoDoug
Probably 7. I can convey my meaning well enough and people generally what I'm saying, which I hope is interesting.

I am a bit too Anglocentric though so people from around the world or non-native speakers may not understand everything I say.

Most important in a date: Intelligent or Funny?

TheBeesKneesGirl’s Profile PhotoEffy
I do think stupid people can't be truly funny and truly intelligent people can't be unfunny?
