Dogs and horses best . . .
What animals make the best/worst pets? There’s a certain bond you can have with a dog. They’re like little walking radars. They’ll pick up on your feelings and mood and react accordingly. I love horses though I’ve never owned one. In my teen years I regularly went horse riding and my teacher wanted me to…

That’s a big ask!!
How would you improve your community? A very wise person once said “do to others what you would want them to do for you” or similar. That’s one significant step that would immediately make a difference for everyone. Litter, ciggy butts, doggy doo, gone! Smiling, friendly greetings and enquiring after the health and wellbeing of…

A Previously undiscovered tree . . .
If you could have something named after you, what would it be? Living example of course! Who wants to be named after a dead one? Oh, I know – Lief Firewood! The famous Scandinavian part time invisible mender. Seriously though, how cool would it be to discover a previously unidentified tree species that was beautiful…

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
What’s something most people don’t understand? Where do I start! Newton was a clever bloke, leagues ahead of me. His 3rd law, which actually reads “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction ” is a fundamental law in the material world. But it works for other levels. For instance, have you ever…

At last, I can answer this one!
How has technology changed your job? It hasn’t. Yay! And there was much rejoicing!

Reaching people with your talent has changed of course. And so far,…

You can see what’s wrong with that can’t you? In the 1st place, I was young. Everything’s possible right? In the 2nd…

Ooer missus!
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? Is this a bit dark or am I reading too much into it? Secret skills will surely remain undiscovered won’t they? The same goes for a Secret ability I’m guessing. Don’t get me wrong, I can see how this might prick the imagination.…

Sunshine and fluffy cotton clouds . . .
What is your favorite type of weather? With a light sea breeze – it’s hard to beat. And if it was in Fig tree bay, Cyprus, then that would be dreamy. 🥰 Sitting in my favourite restaurant, drinking a cold beer, eating moussaka. Ahhhhh! That’s not to say that other weather is no good. Oh…

Tattoo? Tribal markings because???
What tattoo do you want and where would you put it? Don’t get me wrong. If you’re a Maori or from some land with a long tradition of tattoos because of tribal recognition or familial belonging, fine. Fill your boots. I would personally never ever ever have a tattoo anywhere about my person. From my…

Trustworthy comes to mind . . .
What is one word that describes you? Strange that I have to keep talking about myself, but these prompts are a bit random after all. That having been said, it’s a quality I highly value. As I’ve commented before, I used to be in sales as well as running some successful businesses. The growth I…
