OKay, so it's Father's Day here and I'm feeling rather ambivalent about it all. My father died over twenty years ago, and we didn't have a great relationship, and yeah, I will just shut up now.
We're still in lockdown. I'm over it.
So I will get on with one of the joys of my life, the Sunday Stealing questsion, provided, as always, by Bev.
(And now it is twenty to eleven at night and I forget to do this - argh!)
1.What's your favorite TV channel to watch in the middle of the night?
I'm not much of terrestrial telly any more as all it shows is rubbish. If I am watching telly after midnight, I'll tend to turn on one of the streaming services and watch an old comedy - something like Frasier.
2.Which decade do you feel the most special connection to and why?
The Eighties. Ah, the music for the most part - you cannot get better.
3.What is your favorite oldie/classic rock song?
This:
When it comes to classic rock, you cannot beat The Rolling Stones.
4.What Disney villain are you the most like and why?
I really can't say - I haven't seen a Disney movie where I equate to the baddie. I do like Cruella de Vil, but I'm more like her in the film Cruella, if anything.
5.Have you ever been a girl scout/boy scout?
I was a brownie for about three months. Then we moved to the country and there was no brownie pack down there. (Brownies are where you go before you became a girl guide. I'm not sure if they still exist. I was a Tintookie. That's all I remember.)
6.If you were traveling to another continent would you rather fly or take a boat?
I'd rather fly. As much as I like boats, flying gets you there quicker. Oh to travel.
7. What are three of your favorite dog names of all time?
- Sheba
- Henry
- Bozley
8. How do you feel when you see a rainbow?
Happy. I love rainbows. And I make wishes on rainbows. Always.
9. If you were in the Land of Oz would you want to live there or go home?
I already live in Oz - well, Australia. If it's the Oz you get to by following the yellow brick road then I'd come home. The flying monkeys, the wicked witches and that creepy wizard - I think there is no place like home and we will leave it at that.
10. What is the first word that comes to mind when you see the word:
Air: Supply - I'm all out of Love.
Meat: Loaf - I never want to hear Meatloaf again. Grrr.
Different: Strokes - I used to love that show.
Pink: She is an amazing artist. Puts on a fantastic show, and her songs are great.
Deserve: Love.
White: Linen - which always reminds me of my aunt. She used to wear this - and Youth Dew.
Elvis: Has left the building.
Magic: Is everywhere.
Heart: Corazon Melone. It's my mate's WIFI password and he explained it meant 'Heart of a Melon' in Spanish. Strange, eh?
Clash: Joe Strummer. London Calling
Pulp: Jarvis Cocker (From the band from the nineties)
I'm not surprised most of these came out with musical references.

Lots of fantastic songs this week!!!
Fun list answers!
Love your answers to the lists---using songs was really clever :)
Good songs. I always liked that Blondie song.
Great music and lots of memories here this week! Good to see someone else who thought of The Clash. I think we are all over this whole mess. If it turns out that this virus really was being developed as a weapon I hope there is a very special spot reserved in hell for those who were in charge.
