v what do you find most relaxing
Â
^ feet pampering . Love reflexogy
> tea break.. Vera on
v do you like local market cafes or high Street chain big name onesÂ

> Just relaxing. Reading a few diaries
v have you ever overslept for something really important
^ Yes, at an airport hotel for an overnighter for an early holiday flight ... JUST made it by a couple of minutes. Girlfriend at the time would not have been happy (nor me) if we'd've missed out!

> in bed.. Just about to get dine shut eye
, v  do you like to stay in Saturday night or stay inÂ
^ Stay in or stay in? That's not a question silly. I take the mood as it comes. If there's football on, I'm usually well squiffy before the night time so I stay in. If there's no Football, I might take Hubby out. Sometimes I like to go to the theatre. I do love spending time in my home now on the weekends because of working so much during the week so I enjoy just having home comforts. I hope that answers your question x
> Watching Catching a Killer.Â
v Who's been a positive influence on you? I wanna hear details. 🙂Â
^ I would have to say my friend M. We have known each other since I was a student nurse (many years ago!). She was my first ever mentor on the wards and gave me the tough love that I needed. I was pretty lazy and disruptive at the time. Not only did she kick me up the backside, she took time to understand why and coached me and encouraged me to achieve more and better. I would not have had the experiences and achieved the things I have achieved in life without her. We have remained so close ever since and I still learn things from her every day. She has been there for ever success, failure or weak moment I have had in my adult life.Â
> In bed trying to make myself sleepy ?
v what really annoys you?
Stay in or go out dramaÂ
