and my answers.....

1. when was the last time you bought something for someone else, and what was it? I bought the tickets a while ago but last Sunday I took Scarlett to see Ice Princess: Disney on Ice. The thing that makes me happiest is buying things for others.
2. when was the last time you complimented someone, and what was their reaction? Well I don't know whether it counts but I just complimented Deborah on her Shepherd's Pie which was pretty wicked. I was pretty starving though after just coming back from swimming.
3. when was the last time you had to return a purchase to the store; what was it and why? Mmmm that's a really hard one. I think I took some smelly milk straight back to Tesco's but only because Deborah told me to. She is brilliant at it. Maybe it's a girl thing.
4. when was the last time you had an ice cream cone? For ever just about. I don't like ice cream cones too much and I think I only had one ice lolly this summer just gone. That was a Solero. Oh I did have a tub of Haagen Daaz ice cream at the Opera last month.
5. i had to take The Kid to the doctor. when was the last time you had to go to the doctor's office? I had to go because my hip was playing up again. It was keeping me up at night. This was a result of too much running when I was slightly younger and my hip joint has worn away. But then there is not a lot that the doc can do.
6. when was the last time you were embarrased by something you did? What was it and what happened? I went to the BMX track with David and Scarlett and thought it looked really easy adn had a go on my mountain bike. I didn't fall off ( thank God ! ) but it didn't look very cool and hip.
7. when was the last time someone was kind to you? Quite recently; Alex is a good guy. He offered me his trailer for £50, which was an absolute steal. Oh Alex and Nicola got some free fireworks tickets from work so that I could take the whole family and some friends of ours. That's kindness t0 me.
8. when was the last time you locked yourself out of your house/apartment/work? what did you do? Never. I have forgotten to take my keys plenty of times and just had to wait for Deborah to get back frm wherever she was going. The boys are awful at forgetting their keys though.
