QuestionTime With PPB, Instead of Sir Robin Day .

Then if you want to do it, you will.

I don't like peer pressure with these things - I give a chunk to Macmillan every year as well as the place that looked after my Grandad at the end, so I don't need coercing into growing a shit moustache, not drinking or having ice chucked over me.
 
Are you ever too old to have sex on the beach ? Yes you are factually but I am not there yet. Its worse for women than men and there are more items to go south!

If you have Cousins, do you see much of them ? Nope

If you accidently forgot to pay for items that you had put on the bottom self of your trolley, only realising when you got to your car, would you go back and pay for the items ? Always- Karma innit

Do you think people who wear their sunglasses on top of their heads are cool, or is it almost as bad as wearing a cap back to front ? Knobs

Do you keep plants in your home ? No but Mrs Cyber does

Are you any good at brick laying ? Good god if I job is worth doing its worth paying someone else to do well and brick laying is up there with plumbing for me

Out with the old,in with the new. When was the last time you had a bloody good clearout, or do you find this hard to do? I have at least 3 clear outs a year. Hate clutter and junk. If I havent used it for 6 months it either goes into storage or it goes on ebay or to the tip

You have been given a once in a lifetime chance . You get to have a dinner date with your favourite Actress/Singer/Artist/ Performer. Who would you choose to be looking across the table at? The horn dog in me chooses Sandra Bullock. Runner up would be Ade Edmondson and Jennifer Saunders. I think they should come as a pair as they are married

:beerchug: I must agree. I refused the ice bucket challenge, never support comic relief or children in need on the telly but choose charities to sponsor that mean something to me. However I was giving a monthly donation to red cross from 2011-2014. They rang up a few months back and told me of the harrowing issues in Syria and asked me to up my donation. For the sheer cheek I changed to another charity. I dont need recognition for much but I do hate feeling I am being taken for granted and I felt that was what was happening there- "thanks for the 2 years of 20 quid a month but a can you increase it?" Sod off

No. I don't want to help lower CO2 so that HazelGroveWolf will be proven wrong.

Are you any good at brick laying ?

Never tried and never will.

I'm too lazy, even with smaller stuff. I still have several hundred DVDs of film and TV that are just sitting there stacked up.

Elisha Cuthbert. Rohypnol on standby...

Cyber im with you all the way on clutter.

Ade and Jennifer, good choice.

Annoys me here when they send you stuff in the post saying ' Tick which box which donation will apply to you' there are then boxes which range from $30 to $40, another for $40 to $50, $100 and 'other '. To these charities I send $10.

I guess this is a very personal choice - I didn't do the ice bucket challenge because I didn't believe many people who HAD done it either knew why they were doing it, and certainly didn't donate to the original cause. So I don't think I would have been doing it for the right reasons. I wouldn't say I give much to charity TBH, I also give to MacMillan as a monthly direct debit but otherwise I don't do much.

If others want to promote their own reasons/challenges as long as those reasons are the right ones, fair play to them. I've only done that once with Movember in 2013 but it helped me raise a couple of hundred quid for a good cause so I didn't care how people took that.
 
There's definitely an increasing trend to attention seek with it all - I don't think charity is really something to shout about and let's be honest, going a month without an alcoholic drink, let's say, is really not that much of an achievement. If I ever choose to do that (unlikely) then rest assured I won't keep you updated. Maybe it's just me, I'm getting a bit sick of someone doing something, so it gets copied a million times over and over. Social media is a good thing but it has a lot to answer for.

If it raises money for a good cause, I don't have too much of a problem with it. Though no-one should be made to feel obliged to join in with it all. Social media is a good way to promote awareness and therefore the potential to raise more money.
 
It seems a bit Calvinist to me to deny yourself something you enjoy for no reason. Each to their own though.

Had to google calvinist.

Because I couldnt tell you the last time I went a whole month without a wine, or a beer or anything alcoholic. Yes I do enjoy it, and we have wine most evenings with our evening meal,but just for myself I just want to see what it feels like, what I feel like, what I look like, if I feel any different when im just on tea and water :). If I like what I see and feel then I may carry it on.
 
Tea is a stimulant, best cut that out as well. ;)

If alcohol isn't causing problems in your life - be it social, health, financial, whatever - cutting it out for no real reason seems an odd choice to me. I mean I could see how I cope without eating pasta for a month, but I think I'd lose more than I'd gain on balance.
 
Do you keep plants in your home ?

Only a couple.

Are you any good at brick laying ?

No.

Out with the old,in with the new. When was the last time you had a bloody good clearout, or do you find this hard to do?

Last week.

You have been given a once in a lifetime chance . You get to have a dinner date with your favourite Actress/Singer/Artist/ Performer. Who would you choose to be looking across the table at?

Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson or Neil Peart.

After having my arm resemble a bruised pin cushion of late, and the spiked high glucose results, I dont think it can do me any harm in cutting out anything that may be causing this. As I say, i'm doing it for myself and no one else. I havent been told to give it up, or not to have a wine with my meal, but its just something I want to give it a go.
 
Are you ever too old to have sex on the beach ?
No. That wouldn't make it right though....
If you have Cousins, do you see much of them ?
I do, & haven't seen them for years. Doubt I'd know them if I met them in the street, which is a bit of a shame really.
If you accidently forgot to pay for items that you had put on the bottom self of your trolley, only realising when you got to your car, would you go back and pay for the items ?
Would I fuck!
Do you think people who wear their sunglasses on top of their heads are cool, or is it almost as bad as wearing a cap back to front ?
If it is dark, then yes, they're bellends of the highest order.
I do find that I wear sunglasses a lot, but I have prescription lenses & my eyes are sensitive to bright light. I think people often think I'm a twat to be honest.
Do you keep plants in your home ?
Yes, not may, have a yucca that needs repotting soon. Like growing my own veg!
Are you any good at brick laying ?
No. I'm not great at much practical stuff.
Out with the old,in with the new. When was the last time you had a bloody good clearout, or do you find this hard to do?
I'm terrible at that kinda thing! Did force myself to throw away a lot when I moved house last year though.
