1. The proof is in the pudding.
2. Centrelink.
3. Downton Abbey, I'm also quite into Doctor Who however it is on a mid season break.
4. I think it's a good idea but maybe my opinion doesn't count cause I have never smoked and i have never been tempted, however I would like to say I find the anti plain packaging add a dodgy add.
5. Probably my Tafe Sydney hoodie.

Dawn Merz said...

1. Substantial Healing. Well, a phrase I like.
2. Chocolate. Love it. Hate how it disappears when I am near it.
3. West Wing. Again. Have only seen the first two seasons and I'm starting over and will watch it all. I'm a loser. And feel very patriotic when watching it.
4. Whatever. Go for it.
5. Green velvet warm dressing gown. My winter favorite for the last 15 years or so.

1. A saying you like - "Wishin' ain't havin'." - a WG Bailey (aka Dad) special.
2. Something you have a love/hate relationship with - work (6 week job in level of reasonable responsibility and little background knowledge when walking into meetings (so MANY meetings!) lead to being fairly stressed. I may feel like I love it in 3 weeks time when I'm almost leaving but right now I have my doubts.
3. A show you're into at the moment - The Young Ones - another ABC special series about people in their 70s and 80s living in a 70's house for a week to see if it makes them think, act and feel younger.
4. Plain packaging for cigarette packets: good idea or bad idea? - as a non-smoker I'd like to see it tried - worst that can happen is it won't work.
5. Your favourite item of clothing at the moment - polar fleece vest with high neck that can act as a pseudo-scarf when I have forgotten my scarf. It also has pockets which is always a bonus in winter for cold hands (and somewhere to stash gloves when not in use).

CJ- I really dislike that ad, and that 'no nanny state' garbage. It sounds like a sulky little toddler- I know I'm killing myself but shut up, I'm allowed if I want to!'

Soph- I'm liking Offspring a lot. Sad that I can't watch the wednesday episodes.

Ped- Never off you? Sounds smelly.

Nathan- What IS a snuggie? I keep picturing Linus' blanket.

Rhonda- Hello! I got a big surprise seeing your comment here. Great to hear from you, and read about what is happening for you. You will be in my prayers.

Jo- I've only been catching bits of Downton Abbey. Will have to just wait for dvd I think to watch it properly.

Dawn- Wow. Green velvet. That's something you don't see as often as you'd like to.

Kim- yep there's mamy mamy people I have love/hate relo's with.

Maso- don't know what Denali is, but it sounds flash.

Wendy- I like two seasons, and could do without the other two.

G- I have a love/love relationship with McDonalds. sadly my wife has a hate/hate one.

Laetitia- that sounds like an interesting show. Will have to keep an eye out.
