Exiled Girl

PS, I also appreciate that the form will have been designed by someone who is in thrall to all the gender woo, and I did assume, possibly incorrectly, that she will be looking at the answers rather than on here but if she is looking on here, I apologise again if I've upset her.

Ok, sorry. Good luck to her with it.

That refers to my sex which is determined by the two X chromosomes that I have

Stopped at Q2, sorry. I don't have a gender.

True, but if it's thick marzipan it comes off easily

So sad. RIP Neil

Yes, up until covid it was the place we went to after work for a casual, unplanned, work night out as our project office was just across the river. I tended to be the advanced party as I look harmless but am really good at sneaking in onto someone else's table

Ever go to Gordon's, by Charing Cross @Not in Crawley? Need to take extra biscuits with the size of cheeses they serve

George III - his heir was Prince Regent for the last 10 years of George 3's life. The film The Madness of King George was about that

We spent time when in lockdown doing virtual cheese tastings with this outfit. Great choice, we did cider, wine, beer all with cheese https://www.thecourtyarddairy.co.uk/shop/category/buy-cheese/virtual-cheese-tastings/ The Cartmel cheese place has a good selection too - not as big as The Courtyard but really good too.

Last went through it in 2018, not crowded & was clean. Nothing spectacular, but functional with all the facilities you need.

Oh, and I've got a 2009 petrol Focus, and that's exempt from ULEZ charges - it's mostly diesels that will have to pay

Don't know anyone who regularly drives into London - much cheaper & easier to catch public transport, the only case for driving is if you finish/start in the middle of the night, though all the hospitals (1 example) that I know are on a night bus route. There's a daily cap on bus fares of £4.65 and you can catch as many buses as you want or need within an hour for £1.55 The daily cap for zone 4 to zone 1 is £10.60 which is for buses, trains & the tube I'd say as well that there isn't the stigma of catching public transport here as there is in other parts of the country.

4 was built in the 80s & is very much of the time. They shunt the odds & sods international airlines there now. 3 tends to be slightly better regarded international airlines, 5 is BA & 2 is Star Alliance. Originally BMI were going to be the main airline in T2, but they got bought out so now it's mostly Lufthansa and SAS

Heathrow T5 & T2 are much better...

Having trouble sleeping at the moment... Old age, obviously

I'm worn out having watched it, after a fantastic womens' final, god knows how they all feel

Good result for Cam Norrie today, getting into his 1st Masters 1000 final at Indian Wells, that's the level below the 4 majors (Wimbledon etc). And anyone on Heather Watson watch would have been at the Bolton Arena this past week - she's been training there.

There used to be 12 courts and a putting course on Haslam Park, looking on Google Earth they all seem to have vanished or been turned into parking

Too much time off after only just turning pro...

£210 a year at my club in SW London, and that's the going rate round here. That includes social membership for partners. Plus it doesn't rain as much as in Bolton.

She's been pro for what, 13 years? Lots of expenses with being on tour, and she's travelling with her mum rather than a coach at the moment, saving money. She's been promoting her sponsors stuff a lot, Alpapro (?) not-milk for one, recently. She's with Courtney Duffus (Morecambe (?) footballer) currently. She's done better at doubles than singles of late though that's tailing off too. She's still top 100 though, you don't stay there without winning some matches.

Pedigrees have more health issues due to a smaller gene pool, bit like inbreeding in humans

The 2 new cats are with Petplan, the old one was with More Than, but they wouldn't cover her for her thyroid problem after the first year without an enormous hike in premiums and kept putting the premiums up for all other things once she got to 14. We covered the thyroid and because she was considerate, she kept having different things wrong with her, all of which were covered. We didn't bother with the other elderly cat and paid the vet as & when.

Joe Salisbury (GB) & partner won the men's doubles yesterday, and he's into the final of the mixed too with the same partner that he won the French mixed doubles with this year.
