Diolch yn fawr iawn am hwn / thank you very much indeed for this, Catrin
I much prefer the abstract to reality these days. :smiley:

1) How much longer are we going to have to wait?
The longer the better as far as I’m concerned

2) If it was up to you, what would you do?
I’d encourage everyone to drink six pints of beer and place towels between their knees

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again?
I sincerely hope not.

4) Why do you think it’s a good idea?
It just feels right.

5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them?
Well, you wouldn’t want to run out of them, would you?

6) Make up your own Friday Five question and answer it…

1) How much longer are we going to have to wait?

For ever, so the more comfortable we are with it, the better. Stop waiting and start noticing things. :heart:

2) If it was up to you, what would you do?

Spend my time swimming with my kids.

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again?

Yes, the next time I go swimming with my kids.

4) Why do you think it’s a good idea?

Well, it seems generally healthy, and it’s fun, and involves laughter and splashing, I mean… anyway, who the hell do you think you are judging me if I want to go swimming with my kids?

5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them?

There are only two of them! They just seem like a lot.

6) Make up your own Friday Five question and answer it…

Q: Am I doing this the right way?
A: I bloody hope so.

1) How much longer are we going to have to wait?
I know, right? The tension is killing me.

2) If it was up to you, what would you do?
I’d strip the old one down and start again.

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again?
It really hurt but I’d like to.

4) Why do you think it’s a good idea?
Because it went numb. Some people smell purple afterwards.

5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them?
I can’t bring myself to go through the loss.

6) Make up your own Friday Five question and answer it…
Isn’t it all just a matter of riding it out?

Only for those who have the right saddle.

1) How much longer are we going to have to wait? It’s already over. Huw, Aran and Gruntius have answered this question. Move on.

2) If it was up to you, what would you do? In my younger days, I would have put on my runners and ran straight for it. Today, I take my car. :smile:

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again?. For the love of God, Yes please!

4) Why do you think it’s a good idea? I’ll respond like my Daughter when questioned, “I don’t know,” while I shake my head.

5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them? It seemed like an investment opportunity of a lifetime!

6) Make up your own Friday Five question and answer it…
If you could do one thing different, what would it be? Ride the roller-coaster one more time.

1) How much longer are we going to have to wait?
Linguistically speaking - in my case, for ever.

2) If it was up to you, what would you do?
I’ve already tried, many times over.

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again?
Hardly a day passes without my feeling that way.

Because I’ve not heard a better one.

5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them?
Because my mind is too active.

6) Make up your own Friday Five question and answer it…
Q. Why has it turned out so difficult?
A. 'Cos there’s no accounting for human nature.

1) How much longer are we going to have to wait?
It’ll take a long, long time, according to the late Sandy Denny

2) If it was up to you, what would you do? Find the person who invented work and get them to finish it

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again? Feel?

4) Why do you think it’s a good idea?
Because the last time we tried, no-one was murdered
5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them? That Jeyes Fluid isn’t as strong as it used to be.
6) Was Efan really at Ysgol Porth y Glo trying to get Dr Murphy back while his wife was trying to find him?

1) How much longer are we going to have to wait?

Not long now. :slight_smile:

2) If it was up to you, what would you do?

Well obviously I’d put the present lot up against a wall, and get a new lot in (on provisional licence only, obvs.)

OK, that’s against my pacifist principles, so I don’t mean that quite literally…they’d only go to the salt mines (Anglesey?), but I would tell the new lot that the old lot had been put up against the wall… :smiling_imp:

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again?

Not until the next time.

4) Why do you think it’s a good idea?

Because its time has come. (long overdue, actually).

5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them?

I need one bike for each day of the week, and I need so many books to prop open all those doors.

Q: Did you really???
A: Na… but I wish I had done!!! :wink:

That’s one of the things i find very interesting,
sometimes people hear purple (and other colours as well) (try hendrix or prince).
it seems to be because the senses connections pass through the olfactory area on the their way to their respective areas of the brain.

1) How much longer are we going to have to wait?
Not sure on specific time, but we are accelerating in that direction.

2) If it was up to you, what would you do?
Nothing, we can’t change time.

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again?
No, but that is what memories are for.

4) Why do you think it’s a good idea?
Life is a trail of “it seemed like a good idea at the time”

5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them?
I always think the next page will answer a question i hadn’t thought of.

6) Make up your own Friday Five question and answer it…

Just one moment.

2) If it was up to you, what would you do?
I would get some help, as I couldn’t possibly handle that kind of responsibility on my own.

3) Do you think you’ll ever feel that way again?
Hopefully one day, if I’m lucky.

4) Why do you think it’s a good idea?
That slight tingling feeling in my stomach told me so.

5) Seriously, why do you have so many of them?
Because you can never have enough of them.

As long as neccessary. The time will tell …

Turn negatives to positives.

One day for sure cause it’s inevitable.

Because no one brought it to action yet.

Siriously! Because I don’t need them.

Where?
