So many people hate individual sports such as tennis, they find it boring. I m the opposite, I think it's more exciting than team sports. It's about tactics and the individual. Are you a tennis fan? Do you prefer individual sports to team sports? See more

Think it is great to watch and to play. My 86 year old neighbour still plays twice a week - not a Federer game these days, but she still gets round the court very well.

I did once and I still feel guilty about it. But I couldn't find a parking spot and I was majorly stressed out. Sometimes it's nice to play the rebel. See more

I love reading, so the thought of an author of a book reading to me via an audio book makes me want to vomit. Podcasts are the same, I haven't given them a proper go yet and maybe I should. In the 90s, audio books were more targeted to the... See more

Does anyone have a blog or website that is really easy to use? I am going to set mine up this week, so if you love the site you use, please let me know and also drop a referral link if you get a bonus for referring someone! See more

I created my own website during my days at Uni. Back in those days Geocities was popular and they offered free webhosting. I even registered a domain name with another company which directed you to the website when you typed in the name (which I chose) followed by dot com!
Believe it or not the domain name service was offered by a Russian man. He mentioned his name by e-mail and I replied back that there was a boy in our school who had the same name.
He replied back "You may think of me as that boy in your school". I thought this was quite funny at the time ;-)

I have watched some sports that have been televised via webcams such the motorsport where they "drove" the cars on computers.....and some broke a few rules. Some were penalised the same as if it had been real life racing.

I couldn't wait to get my first set of satin sheets. I considered them to be luxurious and sensual. Boy, was I disappointed! You literally slide across the bed. There is no grip. Perhaps this is the allure? There are better ways to do... See more

l think they are a waste if money. They are cold in the winter and hot in the summer, they don't breath so there is not circulation. The blankets slide off the bed and so due you, how can that be sexy but the look sexy.

I kid you not, I have never spoken to a real person at Facebook. It's all bots and generic messages and emails. It's disgusting, with all the money they make, they should provide customer service. It's the least they can do. See more

Absolutely love Facebook...and despise a few things that the admins are really crap at. FB has opened up my world and let me communicate really easily with all my family and friends who are scattered around the world. IT has linked me to many groups which I use daily. It saves me time and allows access to so much that benefits ALL my hobbies.
Yes I hate some things about Facebook BUT there are far more good things about it than bad though.
Lately I've been reporting fake business accounts who are trying to scam people...and only getting automated replies that fail to fix the issue. Replies that tell me the fake accounts aren't breaking any of their rules! What the!!!!!!
So I have had to take it upon myself to start posting warnings in the Newsfeeds. It is greater than disappointing that Facebook is choosing to treat the real businesses and their Followers like that.
Will Facebook survive without better customer service? Yes, it will....but not in a manner that the Facebook admins want it to

Sometimes it feels like it. If you're not famous, well then you pretty much shouldn't have the audacity to exist. At least that's what it feels like to me. See more
Anwyn W
You need to differentiate between being famous because you have achieved something noteworthy (invention/discovery/etc) or just "famous" with some sort of celebrity because you have so many followers on Twitter etc.

This year marks 50 years since the hijacking that changed air travel. The FBI have removed the casefile from the active to the inactive. It is a felony, so there is no statute of limitations. But there remains so many unanswered questions... See more

Not fifty years (ago) - will be fifty years (ago) on 11/24/2021. It did lead to enhanced security for boarding an airplane in the US - you can not carry a gun onboard (on any US airlines) - unless you are a Sky Marshal (US Marshals Service - at the federal Level). I hope when he (white male terrorist) parachuted off the airplane - he broke his legs, starved to death (he never got caught), and NEVER got the opportunity to spend any of the money he attain (illegally). Since he knowingly terrorized a plane load of innocent passengers for monetary gain. Furthermore, when he parachuted off the airpane - he put the airplane crew and passengers lives at risk (airplane carrying passengers - are not set up for a passenger to parachuted from the airplane)!

Most these days seem to use their phone or computer calendar. It seems the days of remembering things like phone numbers and appointments and even shopping lists have long gone. Pity that the brain doesn't get used to keep the grey matter working efficiently too.

Overdosing on prawns, crayfish and mussels always seems like a delightful idea at the time but the intense headaches and tremors that can follow such a binge are ghastly. See more

I worked 7 years in the fishing industry and ate many different things from fish, crays to abalone. I have never felt ill/had headaches. I think mercury would only be a concern in such things as big game fish like marlin, or shark where it is more concentrated..

I would turn to Eastern medicine. Western medicine tends to focus on the 99 that died rather than the one who lived -- they don't mind prescribing addictive drugs either. I like that Eastern medicine is natural and holistic. See more
BLACK LIVES MATTER
I was born in western civilization and was programmed (ruthless) to take a dim view of eastern medicine. However, too much MONEY is involve in western medicine (which has lead to corruption). Furthermore, MD(s) has no qualms about prescribing addictive drugs to you (which means you have to ask questions)! LUCKY ME - I have not been sick in over four years (and counting) and I have not seen an MD in over four years (and counting). Therefore, I am open to trying eastern medicine (based on its approach: natural and holistic)!!

I agree that breathing in and out helps to relax the mind ............usually after a while I will fall asleep. I also believe in some lavender oil - the aroma seems to help me. Beware of "stress" I say .....................

Procrastination is such an unhelpful state to be in and I hate it when I procrastinate but I am human and it happens. It happens before gym workouts, it happens before massive career decisions. It happens before cleaning the house. But I always... See more
Linda C
No I am the type that if it needs doing, do it. I do believe one has to think on big issues that might affect you, others, finance, job etc. before making such a major change or decision but to dither for ages is not a good state to be in for yourself or others it might affect. I usually go with my gut feeling and it has not steered me wrong yet and I am in my 70's.

Nah! I like my bit of clutter! Must say though that now I am getting on - well just a bit! - I have started using the really good things I have collected. I used to entertain friends with regular dinners - with all the trappings good crystal, china etc. and it only got use then. Now they are all dead and I use it all every day 'cos one day so will I be!

Meditation is a fairly new ritual for me but I have found it has improved my state of mind. Do you use guided meditations on apps or youtube? Do you meditate to music? Or in silence? See more

What do you find more soothing? Heat Bags are obviously quicker to organise when you re in pain or feeling cold. But I ve found hot water bottles keep their warmth longer See more
BLACK LIVES MATTER
I will admit I am old (not dead - yet - I do have one foot in my grave) - I do not use either (my guess will be heat bags would be safer). If I am feeling cold - I will reset my smart thermostat. If I am in pain - I will scheduled a video chat with a nurse (with my health plan)! Unfortunately, you can't take your money with you when you die - I will spend my money making my last days (or years) enjoyable!

I have been drinking more wine during lockdown than prior to my life pre-lockdown. It's really concerning. But when there is a pandemic happening, wine can feel like a good idea -- for me anyway See more

No. Why would I need to? I find prayer more effective than alcohol to find peace in the middle of a pandemic, but I understand that not everyone has discovered that yet.

Never. I am indifferent to the price of any headphones. As long as I can hear properly and most importantly, it is comfortable on my ears. Husband does all the purchasing in this area.
