I'm surprised you could think of 102 questions.

I read a post of Rach's in your thyroid thread shortly after and concluded that she's not your wife.Quote:

Is your wife a regular poster or a lurker?
41. Growing up, what were your favourite toys to play with as a child?
We didn't really have toys. We used to make go-karts that we'd race. It was a bugger stealing all those prams so we could get the wheels.
Oh god I remember doing that as a kid as well. Guiders we used to call them.
I have another question for you Norman. Did you ever consider applying for that job looking after that tropical island for six months.
Yes we called them Guiders too and like Norman we were always looking for pram wheels. Kids nowadays wouldnt be interested unless it was elicrically powered and had a socket for an iphone along with bluetooth for their mobiles.Quote:

1. Do you consider yourself to be romantic?
Yes. I often buy Mrs 45 flowers for no particular reason even though I am a terrible flirt
2. Describe a typical day from getting up to going to bed
I always check on here to see what you have posted. Then its a shower, dress and down for brekkie. Depending on what work or appointments I have on I usually head out around 10-30. Lunch is usually a subway unless I come home and have something sensible. I occasionally have to work evenings depending on how busy I am. I spend quite a lot of time on the computer designing websites and posting on various forums
3. Do you wear jewellery, do you have any piercings?
Ughhhhhh no piercings. Just a gold chain

Never really had the inclination

[COLOR="Red"]Nothing that I know of[ apart from hard work/COLOR]
3. When was the last time you cried?
Im a big softy really. I cry when I see the bodies of troops being brought home from Afghanistan. I cried when I had to take my 18 yr old dog to the Vet to get him put down
4. What film or show from the 1980’s sums up that period perfectly?
I dont know what sums up the 80s but my favourite film of the 80s was Top Gun and I also loved the Indiana Jones trilogy

Nope

Not really

It must be 30 years ago

Submitted by Chloe O'brien
1) Have you ever played any pranks on your fellow colleagues as an undertaker?Yes, the usual ones like somebody lying under the sheet in the mortuary or lying in a coffin until someone lifts the lid. They rest of the pranks are too rude to tell on here
2) If Mrs Alan wanted to join SB would you let her and would you tell us who she was?She wouldnt even know how to switch the computer on
3) If you were the director General of the BBC or ITV, which programmes would you axe and what would you replace them with.All those daft programmes like Big Brother which are in my opinion an insult to peoples intelligence. Get non politically correct people to write Deadenders. I would replace them all with decent documentaries and more factual stuff, I would also do away with the ridiculous salaries that the like of Johnathan Ross and ALL the soap actors get. Imagine how many doctors and nurses we could have with Ross's salary.
4) If you were Prime Minister how would you run the country?
Jail all muggers and people involved in knife crime. Bring back the death penalty for murder, rape and similar crimes. Put a limit on immigration. Leave the EU and make sure that our Police, Armed Forces and Health Service were given all the resources they need
5) You have been choosen to take part in the tv show Blind Date. You have picked Peggy Mitchell is your date. Where would you take her?
A long walk off a short peir

53/male/Co. Down Northern Ireland
2. What does the 45 in your user name stand for?
It used to be my age
3. How come you have so many fans from DS?
Just lucky I guess. They probably appreciate my truthful views on their favourite soap
4. Do you have the luck of the Irish?
Unfortunately not
5. Where does your dislike of Babs come from? She was pretty hot in the Carry On filmsShe is a pitiful actress and thinks she ios the life and soul of Albert Square. She loves herself and is a legend in her own mind
6 . Pint of Guinness or a glass of wine?
A nice glass of Shiraz although I enjoy the black stuff too which is a big part in the Hillsborough Oyster Festival

Alan, haven you answered the standard set of questions?
Oh darn, I forgot again :( If I think of a few tomorrow will you answer them Alan?
Oh Alan I'm disapointed in your answer about the blind date. I would have thought you would have picked a nice day out running an ice-cream van. :rotfl:
Seriously thanks for the truthful answers. I agree with crying when the bodies of soilders brought home, that fills me up as well.
Yes of courseQuote:

My dad was a cop, he was at Aberfan when I was a small child helping to dig those kids bodies out, and was still a cop during the miners strike in the '80s. It can be a really tough job, and the shifts are hellish for family life. I can remember Santa coming early for 7 years in a row because Dad was working. My brother and I would take the dog a walk, and hey presto, Father Christmas had dropped the presents off at our house early cos it was already Christmas in Australia and he knew Dad was working.Quote:
