Questions for 21 - 23 September
Spring is sprung! The last two days have been lovely: warm, fine, and with very little wind which is a huge plus in spring here.
21. Do you usually have to wear a belt with your pants/trousers?
Only with two pairs of jeans that are a "boyfriend" cut and loose around the waist so they fall down without a belt. One pair was altered last week; the other one could do with being taken in a cm or so more when I get round to it.
22. Have you ever donated blood? If not, why not?
Yes, frequently, for years until my blood became unacceptable due to medication.
23. What is a meme or picture you've seen recently that has made you laugh?
I would have to:
Picture dogs sitting round a campfire at night telling scary stories. One is saying, "And then the dog's human left the house for a whole 20 minutes!" The other dogs are gasping with horror.

I would have to:
- find the image if I can, given it was on FB
- download the image because FB
- upload the image to DW's hosting
- insert it here

I've always had a horror of needles and giving blood. I never did it. Now I can't for medical reasons, for which I give thanks.
I read a quote from Boris Johnson recently in which he used pseudo French to mock the French for whining over being left out of some military hardware transaction. I laughed all the way through, especially at its final line: Prenez-moi un break! Not politically correct in any way, but sure was funny.

Have you read the Parlez-vous Franglais series by Miles Kington? They were written decades ago as column in Punch magazine which probably explains the non-PC-ness but they're very funny.
Parlez-vous Franglais
Let's Parler Franglais
Let's Parler Franglais Again
Let's Parler Franglais One More Temps
And... The Franglais Lieutenant's Woman (the mind boggles)
They went down so well in the UK as just about everyone there learns French - as did we for far less reason.
