Thank you @DEWDROP for giving me something new to do ❤
1. What is the color of your hairbrush? Pink. The colour that is. A little round one that fits easily in my handbag.
2. Name a food you never ever eat: Casu martzu. A cheese which I’m certain was invented by some man as a penis substitute.
3. Are you typically too warm or too cold? I am British. We don’t feel temperature. Hence the Empire.
4. What were you doing 45 minutes ago? Submitting an Arduino library for inclusion in the Library Manager. Well you did ask.
5. What is your favorite candy bar? I’m diabetic. Thanks. But Caramac, which is not available in the US, and probably isn’t in the UK anymore.
6. Have you ever been to a professional sports event? No, indeed I have not.
7. What is the last thing you said out loud? No, Nora. Bad cat.
8. What is your favorite ice cream? Er, I’m diabetic. Mackinac Island Fudge.

10. Do you like your wallet? Yes. A seventies vintage maroon one. Thank you Etsy.
11. What was the last thing you ate? That would be yesterday. Breaded fish and bread rolls.
12. Did you buy any new clothes last weekend? Maybe. Possibly. Might have. Yes. Three skirts, a strappy crop top, and a pair of 7 inch heel booties, ‘cos I’m fed up with only being six feet tall.
13. The last sporting event you watched? Can’t remember. Would have been a cricket match for sure.
14. What is your favorite flavor of popcorn? Which bit of I’m diabetic…………
15. Who is the last person you sent a text message to? @DEWDROP. A hug. From my limitless supply of hugs, every single one of which she is welcome to.

17. Do you take vitamins? Folic acid only. Because my liver is broken and I need it.
18. Do you go to church every Sunday? Nope. Nor Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday. Or any other day that might at some time in the future be invented.
19. Do you have a tan? I’m British, so no. Well, I’m British and not from Newcastle, so no. Though tan from a bottle probably doesn’t count anyway.
20. Do you prefer Chinese food over pizza? Yes. The list of foods I prefer over pizza is vastly larger that the list of foods I like less than pizza.
21. Do you drink your soda with a straw? Yes.
22. What color socks do you usually wear? Grey patterned ones. Though my clothes have colour, not color.
23. Do you ever drive above the speed limit? I’m my lifetime I have driven over three quarters of a million miles, and I’ve never had a ticket of any kind. So guess what? No.
24. What terrifies me? Spiders. Nasty little buggers, have your leg off as soon as look at you. And heights. And stuff.
25. Look to your left, what do you see? A mess.
26. What chore do you hate? Ironing. But I’ve come up with a solution: I bought a really good ironing board, a steam press, a hand held steamer, and some other neat aids, and now I never do ironing.
27. What do you think of when you hear an Australian accent? Makes me think of home.
28. What’s your favorite soda? Dandelion and Burdock. Try finding that in Michigan.
29. Do you go in a fast food place or just hit the drive thru? Drive through. It lessens human interaction. Some humans are men, so that’s a win.

46. What color is your car? Dark Moss Green.
47. Can you change a tire? I can change a tyre. Does that count?
48. Your favorite state? Depends on the reasons. Thank you @DEWDROP for that answer. Probably Oregon if pushed.
49. Favorite job you ever had? Photographer, and programmer for the BBC Micro. Also designing missile systems and radar was fun. And being a sound engineer.
