QUESTIONS

Postby Minnie the Minx » 17 Oct 2023, 18:23

You're walking alone on a scenic footpath in a nice woodland area. Approaching you is a party of about twenty people, all walking together, with a person at the head of the group. As you walk past them, which members of the group do you say hello to/nod at/acknowledge? Why?

Talking of woodland, what's your favourite wood?

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?

Am I ever going to be able to grow fucking radishes and where am I going wrong?

I woke up with a pine nut in my teeth on Monday, from a meal I had Sunday evening. It was a creamy, nutty and gentle way to start Monday. Have you ever been pleased with something lodged in your molars that you could revisit at your leisure?

I'd just let my eyes flit nervously, I think, sort of greet everybody at the same time.

Talking of woodland, what's your favourite wood?

I have no favorite, I don't take long walks in the wood. I like the look of ebony.

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?

Ice cubes. And ice cubes.

Am I ever going to be able to grow fucking radishes and where am I going wrong?

I am not interested in garden work or growing anything. I live for my collections.

No! If I take a swig of Pepsi-Cola, it comes loose, and I don't like it. I mean, I don't like food stuck between the teeth in the first place. Why can't I have Osmond teeth?

Robin,Little John and Friar Tuck as it is obviously Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men.

Talking of woodland, what's your favourite wood?

The woods in the Ozark Mountains

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?

A carton of Neopolitan ice cream

Am I ever going to be able to grow fucking radishes and where am I going wrong?

No, by trying. Even my wildflowers in the back yard got burned to a frazzle this summer. (but good luck

No, it annoys me to have something stuck in my teeth so I dig at it with a tooth pick till I get it out!

It depends on a few things really. If I'm walking to work something out in my head, it's almost like they don't exist, other than getting out of their way. If they look like they have a purpose, like a guided tour or something, then I'll probably just ignore them and just let them be.
But generally I would tend give them a nice little smile and survey the group lightly without focussing on any one member in particular. If some of them greet me with a little hello, then I'll return the favor.

But I tend to walk very fast, like I 'm late for something, so people generally just pass by like we're all on a highway.


Talking of woodland, what's your favourite wood?
Again, it depends. It depends on the purpose mostly. Pine for a small structure, cedar for smelling, pine (with no low branches) on a golf course. Speaking of golf, I used to love my driver (1 wood) best, but I don't golf anymore. But overall, I'll go with driftwood for its artful offer.

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?
Two days ago, I put in two boneless chicken breasts. I bought a pack of four (on sale) and I'm not a big eater, so.... They just came out of there to thaw out and they'll cook tomorrow. (They usually stay in there longer than that, but I feel like chicken a lot these days.

Am I ever going to be able to grow fucking radishes and where am I going wrong?
I thought radishes were fairly easy to grow. Maybe more difficult in a Texan climate than up here? If you had said carrots, then I could have offered a long-ago story about my mom. The first year she tried to grow carrots, she kept pulling out all the grass that was growing where there should have been carrots. Carrots never showed ujp. It turns out that carrots looks a lot like grass when their greenery first shoots out of the ground. :lol:

My teeth have been shit all my life, so, food stuck in there was never a good thing. Nowadays, with dentures, it's just either irritating/painful or just annoying, depending on size, type and position.

I'd wave and say "Hi Guys" and keep to my path and agenda.

Natalie .. I don't much like Ed or Elijah

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?

My order from Bubby's Freezer went in and a frozen Cheesecake Factory cheesecake came out to make room.

I say howdy to the first person and plaster an amiable look to my face and acknowledge them if they acknowledge me. If I'm walking with MY WIFE, she'll say hello to each and every one.

Talking of woodland, what's your favourite wood?

I don't know. I haven't been in enough of them. I like the idea of a lot of northern European places, but haven't been to enough yet.

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?

I put some coffee in there just to get it out of the way. Don't remember what I've take out recently, except for the compost I keep in there.

Am I ever going to be able to grow fucking radishes and where am I going wrong?

Not until you try to grow them somewhere a few hundred miles north of south central Texas.

Anyone wearing interesting clothing.

The New Forest.

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?

Half a loaf of bread
A pack of pork and chive sausages.

The YouTube video above is good but his soil looks loose and workable. Maybe your soil prep. isn't adequate - you need a fine tilth. Don't plant the seed too deep - a hole the size of the seed plus the same depth again. Difficult what else to say for your garden soil and Texan weather.

No.

This issue bothered me on a lot of recent canal walks. Me, the solitary walker approaching groups of up to 30 people. I say hello to the head of their walk - then should I also say hello to every single other person? Because that means that I have to say thirty hellos, whereas they only have one each. I could do a big sweeping hello that starts at the beginning "Hell....." and then a long "ooooooooooooo" as I walk past everyone else. But if they are all walking slow, the people at the back are only going to hear me saying "ooooooooooooo" as I walk past them and then I'll look like a lunatic, won't I?

Talking of woodland, what's your favourite wood?

I didn't explain myself very clearly. Sorry. I meant favourite wood as in furniture. Me, I like a nice piece of walnut. Smashing.

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?

Put in? Four sticks of home made garlic bread left over from our party last weekend. Took out - some tofu. Freezing it makes it easier to press and drain.

I noted your answers with interest. I think the answer is no, which is a shame, as our raised beds are really nothing more at this moment than sophisticated possum toilets.

I have nothing to add to this.

Any walk in a nice woodland area would interfere with my sedentary lifestyle. Given that I would probably just give pleasant smile and hey there to the group. If the lollygaggers at the end don't get it, their loss.


Talking of woodland, what's your favourite wood?
Reclaimed wood. like old barnwood, sometimes old fences before they tear everything down to build bright new structures. I have a storage area full of this stuff should inspiration strike.

What was the last thing you put into your freezer? What was the last thing you took OUT of your freezer?
My freezer is pretty barren. I'm a fresh food junkie. The last thing I took out were ice cubes. I will probably be packing it up with chili's and soups for the upcoming winter months.

Am I ever going to be able to grow fucking radishes and where am I going wrong?
Radishes as you know are root veggies. Probably not easy to grow in elevated gardens unless the soil beneath gives them space. I am not a botanist so I may not know what the hell I am talking about. I love white icicle radishes but never see them anymore.

Uh, I'm gonna need sometime with one.
Oh boy is it getting rough, when my old world charm isn't quite enough.
