Talking Meme

[thisbluespirit]

I went very low again over the last few days, so sorry if I have (once more) been ignoring people. I feel (hopefully) a little better again and can now go on as usual with working on being a little less ill!

Anyway, I saw the Talking Meme has been going round again and it's been a while. So, give me a topic to talk about and I promise to try and post about it sometime in the near future. (I don't do monthly dates.)

If you want to avoid things I've answered before, I have a Talking Meme Tag you can check. (By and large, asking me how I feel about lemons or brazil nuts gets short answers, I don't do many travel questions or anything I feel is too personal, otherwise have at it!) I have a bunch of new people, so it seems like a good thing to do now.


1. From jaxomsride: What got you interested in family history and tracing back your ancestors?
2. From moetushie: The one old show (or movie) that you wish everyone would watch, and why.
3. From st_aurafina: Do you remember the moment when you learned Doctor Who was coming back? How did you think it would go? Were your hopes/fears realised?
4. From scripsi: Favourite period in history?
5. From justice_turtle: I'd actually love to hear more about Barnstaple, its vanished lace industry (did they do knitted, tatted, or bobbin lace?), and why it is or is not a real place.
6. From dimity_blue: What are your favourite Dumas film adaptations?
7. From persiflage_1: Since you write a lot of Silver/Liz Shaw fic, which other Doctor Who character would you put into an adventure with them?
8. From From hamsterwoman: How about something about Discworld? Favorite characters, favorite books, your history with the series, whatever you want to talk about, really.
9. From eowyn: what about what Doctor Who episode is your favourite, and why?
10. From elen_nare: Which fictional universe(s) would you most like to live in?
11. From sallymn: what are the places close to where you live that are fun to visit?
12. From paranoidangel42: If you could go anywhere in time and space, where/when would you go?
13. From ylla: What places have you lived in, and which did you like best? (Or what was best and worst about each of them.)
14. From liadtbunny: Happy making Tolkien things.

1. The one old show (or movie) that you wish everyone would watch, and why.

[pedanther]

Only one? Cruel!

[moetushie]

Aha, well, top three then?

[thisbluespirit]

I can totally do it in one! There is only one answer! ;-)

[st_aurafina]

Yes, but how do you feel about brazil nuts?

What about a Doctor Who question? Do you remember the moment when you learned the show was coming back? How did you think it would go? Were your hopes/fears realised?

[thisbluespirit]

LOL, I have no feelings about Brazil Nuts, except a slight worry over whether or not I like them. A bit? With chocolate on. Maybe.

Doctor Who questions are always lovely, thank you. :-)

What got you interested in family history and tracing back your ancestors?

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! I've added it to the list. :-)

[ragnarok-08.livejournal.com]

What is your favorite song right now?

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! I should have added to my list that I'm fairly terrible at anything involving music. I do have songs I listen to a lot on YT, but generally they're just random things that happen to help with my illness (good sounds! Most sounds are bad, energy-eating sounds) so it's really random and not about choice, really. Or things on fanvids.

One of the ones I've listened to a lot lately is November by Gabrielle Aplin.

(An answer, but not really worthy of a post, sorry. ♥)

[lindahoyland.livejournal.com]

Hugs.

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! :-)

[scripsi.livejournal.com]

Favourite period in histoy?

I hope you will continue to feel less ow!

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! And I@ve added your question to the list. :-)

[liadt]

Sorry to hear you've been feeling low *hugs*

I would ask you something Tolkien-y, but I am rather limited at the moment:)

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks!

And ask away! I usually take a while to get through the Talking Meme, so I can just leave yours till you're finished with your first run.

[liadt]

A topic!

Happy making Tolkien things.

[thisbluespirit]

Aw, thanks! I'll add it to the list now. :-)

[dimity-blue.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you're feeling somewhat better. *hugs*

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks!

[dimity-blue.livejournal.com]

I had to go think up a question.

What are your favourite Dumas film adaptations?

[thisbluespirit]

Aw, thanks! I shall add it to the list. :-)

[persiflage-1.livejournal.com]

Since you write a lot of Silver/Liz Shaw fic, which other Doctor Who character would you put into an adventure with them?

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! I've added it. :-)

[persiflage-1.livejournal.com]

Have fun! :D

[hamsterwoman]

How about something about Discworld? Favorite characters, favorite books, your history with the series, whatever you want to talk about, really.

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! I have now added it to the list. :-D

[eowyn.livejournal.com]

What kind of music moves you?

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! I should thought to say that I am really no good at music questions, though. Sorry! If you want another, that'd be lovely. Sorry.

[eowyn.livejournal.com]

Ummm what about what Doctor Who episode is your favourite, and why?

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! Always a difficult (but fun) one to ponder! :-D

[elen_nare]

Which fictional universe(s) would you most like to live in?

[thisbluespirit]

Thank you! Added to the list. :-)

[sallymn.livejournal.com]

What are your favourite pieces and styles of music, and why does it get to you?

What are your favourite colours?

[thisbluespirit]

Aha, um, I am terrible at most music-related questions! I do love music, but in my own way and I find it very difficult to talk about it for some reason.

My favourite colour is blue!

So, um, if you want to give me another, feel free? (I'm not entirely sure what else I could say about blue. It's my favourite colour. Sky, sea, night sky, blue. Not so much royal blue.)

[sallymn.livejournal.com]

No problem (the idea is stuff you find fun to talk about :)

How about... what are the places close to where you live that are fun to visit?

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! I'll add it to the list and do my best.

[paranoidangel]

If you could go anywhere in time and space, where/when would you go?

[thisbluespirit]

Thanks! I've added it to the list.

[ylla.livejournal.com]

What places have you lived in, and which did you like best? (Or what was best and worst about each of them.)

[thisbluespirit]

Thank you! Added. :-)
