1. got loads! Lollipop, sunshine, smetterling, hanoi, and the name of a town near us, Nagold. And squiffy.

2. Gutted. It's always made me feel queasy. Oh, I like the word queasy too! I agree with Nerdy about 'retard'. Also don't like 'gay' when used as an insult. Least fave iSketch word... 'wtf???'

3. A little bit of romance and anything involving having my hair or neck stroked. Is that too much info?

4. A little switch in the small of my back. JK! Boorishness, arrogance, rudeness...

5. Purrrrrrrrrr, wine corks.

6. Dogs barking too loud on a Sunday morning. People being sick *blargg*

7. SCHEIßE!!!!!!!

8. Writer.

9. Dentist or Chiropodist

10. I'd like him to say that in heaven there is a different time line, so whereas it might have been years and years on earth since or until me or my partner died, in heaven the reunion is instantaneous. Being alone frightens me.

Bottom! It's such a well-rounded word
Picturesque (and the people who pronounce it 'picturescew')
errrr...lots! Men in suits, uniforms, driving, some manual work and the nook in my neck, just below my hairline. Even it being breathed on is enough...oh tmi?!
Being held tight around the neck and being breathed on my nose when I'm trying to breathe in. Ew!
The waves of the sea on a quiet beach.
Anything loud, high-pitched or the sound of the bloke laughing upstairs. They're a noisy lot anyway but his laugh just winds me up.
I don't swear but I say 'Hash' alot!
I would love to go back and start again, training as a paediatrician.
Anything to do with rubbish. Seeing the bin men and the truck makes me gag before I've even smelt it!
So you're the one they've been telling me about :twisted:
