Questions for 21 and 22 August
22 Aug 2021 12:44 pm21. What is the last thing you cooked?
Breakfast this morning, a joint-effort fry-up: fried eggs, tomatoes, hash browns, toast - lockdown Sunday comfort food. The last thing I baked was wholemeal sunflower bread yesterday.
22. If you could live in a fictional world, which would it be?
It's pretty hard to think of any that would be pleasant and safe; after all, that wouldn't make good fiction. I'm enjoying the Lady Hardcastle mysteries right now, needing some escapism, but even though her pre-WW1 world is a delight, anything set in the past is out because of the sexism and lack of medical science. Therefore I'll go for Iain M Banks' Culture universe as it's a post-scarcity utopia where I'd have a pretty good chance of living a long and fun life on a friendly sentient spaceship - as long as I stay away from any of his books.
