This or That ?

[Skip]

THIS or THAT ?


Are you all up to having a new game ? I hope you haven't already done it to death before, but I can't see it in the previous pages.

Choose from the two options you're given. Which do you prefer ? And tell us why. Then give us two new options. Got it ? Easy !!

Oh...ok, I'll go first.


BIG BROTHER or POP IDOL ??
:spin2::spin2::spin2::spin2::spin2::spin2::spin2:: spin2::love::spin2::spin2::spin2::spin2::spin2::sp in2::spin2::spin2:

[BigSister]

Ooh tough 1 Skip
Ill have to say Big Brother because of the 2nd series and of the great mix of characters

Ok next one

Tea or Coffee

[BusyBee]

Tea - got to fill up my tea bag bin somehow.

Right.

Dog or Cat

[BigSister]

Cats I have 2 of them :hugesmile:

Right next1
TV or Radio

[rachb]

Tv:hello:

next one chocolate or chips?

[BigSister]

Chocolate

Crisps or Sweets

[Skip]

Crisps. I'm not into sweets, I like savory. I imagine crisps are chips. I like all sorts of chips from wedges & fries to potato chips. Especially chicken flavor or chilli. :devil:


Yesterday or Tomorrow ??

:thumbs:

[BigSister]

Tomorrow

Friday or Sunday

[Skip]

Originally posted by BigSister

And why Tomorrow ??



.
Friday or Sunday

Sunday. It's the weekend, I have no work and no University for the whole day !!





Christmas or Boxing Day ?? :conf:









.

[BigSister]

I picked Sunday tommorow because its the weekend

Christmas because you get presents:hugesmile:

Cake or Ice Cream

[Mark]

Cake!

Helen or Paul??? :thumbs:

[LEE]

Tough one....

Helen


Corrie or EastEnders

[Boris]

Easties...because I have never watched 'Corrie'.

Summer or Winter

BTW thanks for the new game Skip.

ALSO..everyone , don't forget to give your reasons for your choice...that is what makes it more interesting.....Thank you XX

[BigSister]

Summer as long as it isnt too hot

Reading or writing

[kaphc]

Ooooh ... writing - so good to get all your thoughts down on paper. I'm sure there's a novel in me somewhere, I've just got to find it!

With marmite or without marmite

[BusyBee]

With marmite (and cheese as well please)

Weekday or Weekend

[rachb]

weekend


gold or silver

[LEE]

Silver - have always preferred it to Gold, just think it looks nicer :hugesmile:


Red Wine or White Wine

[BusyBee]

White wine (good for getting rid of red wine stains)


Mexican or Chinese food

[rachb]

mexican:hello::hello:


rock or pop music

Thanks Boris. :thumbs: Perhaps I wasn't clear, but please say why you choose what you do. We can all pick one or the other. but its the reason you give that makes it interesting. Just as Boris said. :xyxwave:

[Skip]

POP:
I am a real sucker for Pop music, say what you like, but I am especially hooked on seventies pop . :dance::hello::dance: Our Australian Idol just had a night of seventies pop.....it was great !!!



Inside or Outside ?? :thumbs:

[Romantic Old Bird]

Inside I think, because it's warm and cosy........

mmmmmmm, outside is good too, but today is a bit fresh, so I'll stick with inside!

OK. let me lower the tone.....

Sex or Food?:laugh:

[Sticks]

OK Food
Less complicated
Must dash my pork and garlic sausages are ready

To raise the tone a bit

Johan Strauss or George Fredrick Handel

[Romantic Old Bird]

mm, well, to be pedantic Sticks, Strauss has the advantage, because there were more than one of them. Which one do you mean?

Also they are so different. I mean, I love the Messiah because I have sung in it so often, but lets face it, he's a bit glum overall.

I think I'll go for Strauss. JS I was from humble origins, unlike Handel. JS II was a pop star of his time and his music is jolly and encouraged people to clasp each other in popular dance to the strains of the Blue (well, it's murky brown really) Danube and suchlike. I'm all for a bit of clasping myself, so.........

Johann Strauss II for me please.

OK now, let me think and let's go a little more low-brow.....

Jade or Helen?

:conf:

[Boris]

Very Little Effort required here Rob.

Helen

Helen was and is a 'sweetie ' and a 'poppet' whereas Jade......do I have to say ANYTHING ?

I think not !:blush:

[Boris]

Spending money or saving it !!!


( I nearly fogot to put up this choice at all, probably because i have just been out SHOPPING yet again....I really must stop !)


:spin:

[rachb]

Well I think this is a tough one,I would say both.

if its someone elses money then I would say spending it if its my own then saving it:hugesmile:

next one
Will or Darius:laugh:

[LEE]

Darius :hugesmile:



Fame Academy or Pop Idol

[Boris]

Fame Academy...never having watched 'tother one !!!

:dazzler::dazzler::dazzler:

[LEE]

So whats the next choices then Boris?

[Boris]

Oooops ! Forgot again.......


UUuuummmmm...

eating out

eating in

(with company in both cases )

[kaphc]

Eating out - as I don't get the chance to do it very often now - babysitters needed etc. etc.

Manchester United or Arsenal

[James]

I prefer to watch Arsenal. I think they have more cosmopolitan flair than Man U, and also are less predictable to be winners as United.

To answer the previous one - Fame Academy or Pop Idol - Pop Idol. I find it more entertaining for some reason, and also bigger 'event' television. I thought the final of Fame Academy was quite low-key, especially compared to last year's.

Next 'This or That':
Mac or PC

[Sticks]

PC
There is more software available than for a mac

PC's are the industry standard now, so mucgh so that macs have a PC emulator. Now you do not see a mac emulator on a PC. (Well I have not)


OK

Theory X or Theory Y

[kaphc]

Theory X - I can prove that one's true! :hugesmile::hugesmile:

And next ......

Sticks or Stones

[LEE]

Sticks - I mean what would this forum be without him :hugesmile:

I've never thought much of Mick Jagger anyway :laugh:


Sweet or Savoury

[BigSister]

Sweet I dunno why lol
Next
Hot or Cold

[Boris]

Sticks - I mean what would this forum be without him ....I've never thought much of Mick Jagger anyway .


You deserve a prize for that answer LEE....best one on 'this or that' so far...WELL DONE !!!!!


Now

'hot or cold?'

It depends on the context doesn't it!

If we are talking hot or cold'weather'. I prefer sizzling hot holidays than cold ones. But....if it is 'Food' well I like both.

Let's go for a 'hot or cold date':shocked:

Hot every time I think !!!!!!!!:blush

Travelling...

Air or Sea ?????

[kaphc]

Sea

Especially on a luxury cruise ship where the pace is slow, rather than being packed in like cattle to a charter flight.

And so next is:

Ant or Dec

[Sticks]

Dec

They were quite good mainframe computers in their day. In my first year of my first degree I got to play on a Dec 20

Ah happy days

Now for this one

Camille Saint Siens or Wolfgang Ammodeus Motzart

[kaphc]

Originally posted by Sticks
Camille Saint Siens or Wolfgang Ammodeus Motzart

Do you mean Saint-Saens and Mozart Sticks?

Well.. I'd always pick the opposite of Mozart - the musical is too clinical for my liking. Saint-Saens organ concerto is a really good piece of music!

:dance::dazzler::dance:

Next ..... Dice or Cards?

[Mervi]

This is a difficult one...

but I'd say dice because it's nice to throw it around whereas cards get sweaty and dirty when they go around the table...

The next one:

Up or Down?

[Skip]

UP definately....I hate being down. Lifes too short.....and it's almost summer again !!! :dance: So, it's Up, Up, Up for me. hehehehe....sorry.


Madonna or Kylie ?? :conf::mad:

[BigSister]

I like both but i have to say Kyile
Next
Red or Blue

[Legally blonde]

Blue, because it's calming.

Pen or pencil?

BTW love this game :bouncy:

[Sticks]

Pencil, as it is easier to rub out any mistaks :shocked:

Now this one

Mendleson or Brahms

[kaphc]

That's a hard one.

I think I will have to go with Brahms, not Mendelssohn. I used to play more Brahms when I was having piano lessons.

Next one .......

Wave or wink?

[BigSister]

Wave:wavey:because I like waving lol
Next
Newspaper or News (TV)

[Sticks]

Newspaper because they give you the small stories that are not covered by the electronic media.

Which is why I buy the Daily Mail :dance:

meanwhile

Cirrus

http://ds.dial.pipex.com/justdesign/atmo/stock/a7.jpg
or
alto Cumulus

http://ds.dial.pipex.com/justdesign/atmo/stock/a8.jpg

[Boris]

Nice one Sticks....Cirrus because it leads you aloft whereas the 'other' is a barrier to trap you below.

( I like this game too )

History or Geography

[BigSister]

History because I learnt it at school
Next
English or Maths

[kaphc]

Maths because you always work it out logically and the answer is always right or wrong.

Next ....

Weekend in London or weekend in the Cotswolds?

[Mervi]

In London because I love the sights!

Give or take?

[Romantic Old Bird]

Mmm, got to be giving because it is actually better than receiving...

Tweetie Pie or Woody Woodpecker?

[BusyBee]

Tweetie Pie cos we had a yellow budgie called that.

Autumn or spring.

[Sticks]

Autumn

Because it is time for harvest

Benjamin Britain or Ludvig Van Bethoven

[LEE]

I presume you mean Benjamin Britten Sticks.

I've never been much of a Beethoven fan I'm afraid much of his music is a bit pompous for my liking. I studied quite a lot of Britten as part of my music degree and have actually done some chorus work in Peter Grimes, so my answer is definitely Britten.


Guitar or Piano

[Skip]

PIANO, as with Elton John. I won't name every wonderful song he has ever played piano on, but my most favourite is "Someone saved my life tonight."

Snoring or Chewing fingernails ??

[BusyBee]

Snoring - excuse for poking OH in the ribs when he keeps me awake.

On the same sort of subject.

SLEEP TALKING or SLEEP WALKING

[kaphc]

Sleep walking - apparently I sleep talk, so I can't choose that can I???

Heaven or Hell?

[Boris]

Hmmmm....kaphc...this is not really an option!

I think you have to decide where you will be 'sent' not where you would choose to go.


Maybe 'life' is heaven on earth - for some anyway.For others it is hell on earth !

I suppose I would prefer 'heaven' not having masachistic tendancies !

Boots or shoes ....


http://www.charterhousefactoryshop.co.uk/footwear.jpg

[kaphc]

OK, OK I take your point Boris!

On your choice, I will go for Boots as they are nice and warm to wear in this weather.

Let's have an easlier option next ...

Deep pan or thin and crispy (when referring to pizzas of course!)

[BigSister]

Deep Pan because I think they are taster
Next
Simon Cowell or Richard Park

[WILDCHILD]

Gotta be Simon cos he is the original (other than Nigel, I spose!)

Day or night-time!

[BigSister]

Day time when not at education. Night time when is
Probably Day time
Next
Chips or Mash

[Romantic Old Bird]

No contest really.......
http://images.google.co.uk/images?q=tbn:rp6WKPM8ZAQC:www.expatica.com/www/upload_pix/fries.gif

mayonnaise or vinegar?

[BigSister]

Vinegar because its good on chips and I like chips
next

[Sticks]

Rain
It is miserable and wet
Seems rather apt somehow :bawling:

Gilbert and Sullivan or Shakespere

(BTW I went to see my first live performance of HMS Pinafore :dance:)

[Romantic Old Bird]

OOH THE BARD ANYTIME!

G&S drive me round the twist.

On that subject........

Henry V film:

Olivier or Brannagh?

[Boris]

Olivier seems a bit 'stilted' these days so I go for 'Brannagh' although I am not generally a great fan of his.


Theatre or Cinema

[kaphc]

That's quite hard to decide as I like both.

I think on balance I'd have to go for the theatre - nothing beats a live performance, where anything could go wrong.

In honour of the Rugby World Cup ......

Scrum or Kicker

[Janette]

Ooh I do like a nice scrum!!!!! :blush:


Eddie Van Halen or Dave Lee Roth?

:thumbs:

[Skip]

Dave Lee Roth. Not much to add to that, just like his music better.


Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter ?? :conf:

[BigSister]

Harry Potter because I like the books

[Mervi]

Chicken because it's better.

In the city or in the country?

[BusyBee]

Country definitely - nothing like a bit of clean air and green hills.

Car or bike

[Boris]

CAR
because I am a bit 'old' for bike riding, think they are VERY dangerous on the busy roads and am not much into 'gym' riding.

Gas or Electricity

[BusyBee]

Gas (cost I've been told I'm a bit of an old gas bag:blush::hugesmile::hugesmile:)

Landline or mobile phone

[sweetlittlesara]

Landline (way cheaper! and it doesnt go out of signal just when someone is telling you something really important!)

[LEE]

Have you got another choice for us Sara? :spin2:

[sweetlittlesara]

oops yeh :P

Physics or Chemistry (I only ask cos I cant decide which to take for AS :blush:)

[peachy]

Can I choose neither? No, ok then, Chemistry more smells and bangs!

[Romantic Old Bird]

Now then Peachy, you have failed in your mission to give us a choice...........:nono:

[peachy]

Ok then,

Soldier or Sailor?

[Romantic Old Bird]

Oh, a sailor please - pref Johnny Depp...

[BigSister]

Sports car- Because I like them

Radio - the pictures are better

Zechariah or Malachi

The Beatles or The Rolling Stones

[BusyBee]

Definitely dessert - lots of chocolate and cream and calories and ..... mmmmmm!!


A girl after my own heart there.

Got to be Beatles for me (was never really into the Rolling Stones) but definitely had a thing about Paul McCartney when I was younger. Strange this fascination with Pauls:hugesmile:


Christmas or Easter

[Mervi]

Christmas!
I'm already looking forward to decorating the house and the garden, burning candles and making christmas candy!

Watching a film at home or at the cinema?

[Skip]

Cinema, for the big screen and the big sound. Disappointing though if the movie is crap.


Outdoor concerts or Indoor concerts ?? :dazzler:

[Romantic Old Bird]

MMmm. Good one.

I think Outdoor, as long as it's not raining.

[Skip]

Originally posted by Romantic Old Bird

:wavey:

[Romantic Old Bird]

Erm :blush: just did that so that peachy would not feel alone!:hugesmile:

Pre raphaelite or Impressionist?

Funny film!

Lifes too short as it is!!!!!!!!!:colour:

A bit like yours truley really !!!!!:spin2:

[Boris]

Oops! nearly forgot again.....

Suitcase or holdall.......lol

[kaphc]

Suitcase - because they remind me of going on holiday, whereas a holdall is just for junk!

Sexist!!

[Boris]

Well I've met a few 'Frogs' in my time and the odd 'prince' too........ as have others!

Just use your imagination:laugh:

[BusyBee]

frogs (love fairy stories - never know they may come true:love:)


Del Boy or Rodney

[kaphc]

Never liked either of them much to be honest ... overall I think I'll go for Rodney as he was always being set up and I felt sorry for him.

Tom or Jerry?

[BigSister]

Jerry because it is so funny when he tricks Tom
Chocolate or Wine

[BusyBee]

got to be chocolate (especially a nice gooey chocolately dessert)

[Boris]

Cherry Coke, Vanilla Coke or Coke Classic

CHocolate or cheese

[rachb]

Chocolate because its yummy!!

next one

christmas or new year

[Sticks]

Hogmany

It says good by to the whole sorry season

Schubert or Chopin

[Romantic Old Bird]

Schubert I think.

Back to Christmas (or in Peachy's case every night. Hic)
Harveys Bristol Cream or Croft Original?

[Boris]

Both have a certain something to offer but I think the 'Croft' wins the day.


Red wine or White wine

[Janette]

A dry white wine wins every time for me!


Sam or Jason (Pop Idol tonight - I was gutted!)

:bawling:

[rachb]

Jason I voted for him:bawling:

next one :

roses or carnations

[LEE]

Roses :hugesmile: Nice a romantic.


Roses or Quality Street :laugh:

[kaphc]

Quality Street - I like the toffee pennies!

Staying with the Christmas theme:

"It's a Wonderful Life" or "Holiday Inn"

[Janette]

It's a Wonderful Life - one of my favourite films ever!


Laurel & Hardy or Morcambe & Wise

[kaphc]

Got to be Morecambe and Wise - they are comedy geniuses and I love that sketch they did preparing breakfast to the stripper song!

Next choice:

Friends or Cold Feet

[rachb]

Friends I love it:thumbs: Joey And Chandler are so funny!


next one GMTV or RiSE

[BusyBee]

GMTV cos I think Eamonn Holmes is real cuddly

Rain or Snow

[Sticks]

Rain, because after its over its over and it does not hang around for weeks and people do not through rain balls at you and you do not have to gawp at rude creations of rain men :mad:

OK

Feudal Undemocratic Monarchy based on accident of birth or a Decocratically elected presidency (along the lines of that of the Irish Republic)

[Boris]

Well....when i think about the USA and the presidents they have had of late I think I would prefer to stick with 'our' method. They really have no power of their own and are able to curb the extreme instincts of others. A way to avoid a 'power merchant' from having his/her own way !

Seaside holidays or countryside holidays

:spin2:

[kaphc]

Seaside holidays!! Nothing beats a bit of sea air, some candyfloss and a beach hut.

Next ..... (getting a bit mad here!)

Raindrops on roses or whiskers on kittens?

[Sticks]

Whiskers on :cat:

As you can easily wash off the pet food from the all too eager moggie, whereas with the other one you have soggy chocolates

OK try this way

Feudalism or Democracy

[BusyBee]

Feudalism - a place for everyone and everyone in their place!

Crunchie or Turkish Delight

(my choice if I cannot resist my temptation to go to the shop)

[kaphc]

I hate Turkish Delight, so it has to be that Friday feeling of Crunchie!

Shop online or shop in shops

Tears.......of Laughter!!

Or is that cheating??:hugesmile:


Indian takeaway or Chinese takeaway?

[Sticks]

Chinese

You just made me feel like going and getting some egg fried rice

Must resist

RESISTANCE IS FUTILE YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED........

Oh no its the Borg :shocked:

Kirk or Piccard

[Romantic Old Bird]

Mmm, now that is a poser....

I like them both for different reasons.

But I'd rather have Jean Luc taking me through a meteor field.......

let's stay with St

Spock OR Data??

[Boris]

SPOCK every time.
My fantasy is to make his ears curl with passion and this face smile.

On the same theme Klingons or Ferengi

[Sticks]

Klingons - as there is now an official Klingon language you can learn plus there was a project to translate the bible into Klingon

OK

DS9 or Voy

[James]

DS9, best every Trek series imo. I liked the on-going storyline and the fact that all the problems of an episode weren't solved by being in a completely different place the next week like Voyager and other Trek shows.

As for Enterprise.... :sleep:

Next this and that:

Is the glass half full or half empty?

[Mervi]

Half full, because I'm always an optimist!

A dog or a cat?

[BusyBee]

Dog - I'm going to have a red setter when I retire to my life of luxury.

Looks or personality

[kaphc]

Personality (but looks always help!)

Light, sparkly eyes or deep smouldering eyes?

[BusyBee]

Deep smouldering eyes

(Every time makes me go weak at the knees)


Long hair or short (on a man)

[LEE]

Definitely short hair, though a few wisps around the collar are fine :hugesmile: Not too short though, don't like skin heads.

Smart or Casual

[bananarama]

Casual. Far more relaxing......

Left foot or Right foot :laugh:

[Boris]

As one who alwasy tries to put their 'best foot' forward this is rather hard.....

Ummmmm.....righ as I am right handed.


Motorway or country roads

[kaphc]

Country roads - the views are better!

Teen BB or Celeb BB1

[James]

Teen BB. Didn't watch Celeb BB1, and Teen BB was better than Celeb BB2.

Glasses or contact lenses (or laser eye surgery)

[BusyBee]

Glasses - I tried contact lenses once and got into a right muddle - gave up.

Straight forward route or 'pretty' route.

[Sticks]

Straight forward route

No messing

No Fuss

Get the job done

OK

This or That

[splodge0]

This

That smells!!!!....................................

Rsssspppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

next one daddy or chips?

[splodge0]

Daddy. I only have one or if you mean sauce, chips!


Kilroy or Tricia

[BusyBee]

Tricia (dont particularly like either of them though)

house or bungalow

[Boris]

BUNGALOW


Had a lovely one when I lived in Nottingham. From the front it looked like a 60's 'Health Centre' or 'Police station'. But once you passed the ....oh it was of complicated design ! Inside it was beautiful. Airy, spacious, light, I loved it.

Circumstances MUCH different now :bawling:

[Boris]

Next choice.......


email or 'snail' mail
:spin2:

[BusyBee]

snail mail (cos e-mail means work for me and I get loads every day)

Gloves or mittens

[bananarama]

Well it's tempting to be traditional and say "snail mail" but e-mail is so quick for getting feedback without waiting too long that I have to say "E-mail".

Step son or step ladder :laugh:

[BigSister]

Gloves because they are warmer

Sun or rain

[Sticks]

Rain

We need it as they are talking about winter drought and water shortages :shocked:

Volvic or Highland Spring

[BusyBee]

Highland Spring (dont like the taste of volvic)


Supermarket or corner shop

[Boris]

Gloves because they are warmer


I think Mittens are warmer than gloves !

However......

Highland Spring Volvic is a bit bland...that's the name of my Doctor...Bland !

Which leads me to......

Doctors or Nurses :laugh:

[Boris]

Sorry Busy Bee!

I'll do yours if you'll do mine !!!


Although supermarkets are usually cheaper and take less time overall
I prefer the CORNER SHOP !

Your turn now:laugh:

[BusyBee]

We got our knickers in a twist there didnt we Boris.

Anyway has got to be Nurse (can you imagine what ROB would say or do if we said anything else LOL:hugesmile::hugesmile:)

Gas or electric cookers

[Boris]

Anyway has got to be Nurse (can you imagine what ROB would say or do if we said anything else LOL)


OOOhhhh....it doesn;t bear thinking about Busy bee !


My answer is GAS...though I have electric at the moment.

If ever you have time I'll tell you the long and SAD tale of how my brand new EXPENSIVE fitted STOVES gas gear failed on Christmas eve after STOVES failed to come and look at it although it was not working correctly 3 weeks before the festive season. I was left with NO cooking fascilities for 3 weeks and then had it all removed.I demanded compensation from STOVES but did not of course get it although eventually with the help of the local consurer advice centre they did pay for the new stuff to be refitted. I had to have electric because i could find no gas equipment that fitted the holes left by the STOVES faulty stuff.Found out 6 onths later that my niece had had the same trouble with her STOVES equipment abd it too 2 years to sort out by being replaced with a new one. REMEMber that name ....STOVES !

But of course I will only tell you if you have time to spare ! :laugh:

Long explanations or short ones :laugh::laugh::laugh:

[BusyBee]

After that tear wrenching story has to be long drawn out stories (you just have to have all the interesting bits). What a truly fascinating story you do tell Boris.

Christmas or New Year

[rachb]

Christmas because I'm so excited:hello:I have done all my shopping and have started to wrap presents already:hello:


next one Coronation Street or Eastenders

[LEE]

Coronation Street. EE is OK, but Corrie beats it hands down in my book.

East or West

[sweetlittlesara]

West - because that is where I live (west London) and where I come from (west Wales)

Late at night or early in the morning

[vicky]

I'll have to say late at night as im here at this time.

chicken or turkey

[Sticks]

Chicken

Cheaper and you can get a small one if it is just you

Guesss What I am having for tea tonight
:dance:

Vincent Van Gough or Micheal Angello

[Romantic Old Bird]

Vincent van Gogh or Michelangelo I think we mean don't we Sticks?:hugesmile:

This is ssoooooo difficult because I love them both and they are very different.
Michelangelo was a genius. Everything, his sculptures, his paintings, stunning. I actually wept when I saw them in Florence because they were so beautiful it HURT.

Vincent van Gogh was I believe manic depressive or possibly shcizophrenic. He was totally tortured poor man, and driven with a passion that bounces off the canvas. I love the boldness, the texture and the richness. Seeing his work makes me hurt for him. Unlike Michelangelo, he didn't work to commision, he just HAD to paint, even though he was tortured by what he saw as his lack of ability.

All of which is my long-winded way of saying, if I must choose between them:

PARDON???

Oh yes, the next one.................


Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly?

[kaphc]

Fred Astaire - because I don't really know who Gene Kelly is!!

Next .....

Shopping in a shopping centre or shopping at a market?

[Boris]

Well it really doesn depend on what one is looking for.

On the whole I like shopping centres best.
Like to keep dry and warm and have plenty of stops for coffee !

On the shopping theme...

Shopping alone or with a friend ( or sister...I did that today )

[Sticks]

Shopping alone

Its faster
No hastles

Plus as I live alone and have nobody I have no choice :bawling:

On a previous one I would have chosen the open air market as I like to see open sky and shopping centres are claustraphoibic

Ok

:dance: or :hello:

[rachb]

I like :dance: best because he's dancing

Wine or Beer

[Amy]

Wine It's a lot lighter than Beer :thumbs:

Posh or Becks?

[rachb]

Becks do I need to say why:laugh:
because he's a good footballer
:laugh:

next one

video or dvd

[Romantic Old Bird]

Well, I'm new to dvd, but I have to admit, it's great! No contest.


Phoenix Nights or the Office?

[Boris]

ohhh!

can't do this one..never seem either !:bawling:

[Janette]

I don't actually 'get' either of them - too clever for me, but I love Peter Kay so I'll go for Phoenix Nights.


Arnie as governer or Arnie as actor

:thumbs:

[rachb]

Actor I think stick to what he knows best:thumbs:


Halloween or Bonfire night

[sweetlittlesara]

Bonfire Night - I love the fireworks! and the smell of the bonfires, and wearing your gloves and waving the sparkler ooooh the memories.

Blonde or Brunette?

[BusyBee]

Blonde (cos that's me with a little help now though) but saying that I much prefer Brunette men so you pay your money and take your choice.


Jam or marmalade (on toast)

[LEE]

Marmalade - though I shouldn't be having either of them at the moment due to Slimming World :bawling:

Pen or Pencil

[kaphc]

Pencil because you can rub out any mistakes (do I sound like a control freak now?)

On a topical theme ....

Princes William & Harry or Paul Burrell!

[Janette]

Definitely the princes,


I can't say on this forum exactly what I think of Mr Burrell (I'd be banned for using profanities!)


Laurel or Hardy?

:thumbs:

[Boris]

That's a bit like saying
Morcombe or Wise the 2 go together

( and yes I know I have spelt it wrong)
But I'll go for the little weedy one. He has such a soulful expression !I think that is Stan Laurel

Bare feet or shoes on

[BusyBee]

Bare feet (spend most of my time with shoes off - used to have my shoes confiscated at school for the day because I would sit with them off under my desk)


Champagne or sparkling wine

[kaphc]

Got to be the real thing - champagne, sweetie! I love the indulgent feeling I get when drinking it.

Morning or evening

[Kaz]

Evening . . . . . I'm SO not a morning person. Don't even speak to me unless I've been up for an hour, had my shower and a wake-up cup of tea! :blush:

Casualty or Holby City?

[Boris]

Not too keen on 'hospital' dramas but di watch casualtu when it was first on about 100 years ago !

Neighbours or Eastenders

[Romantic Old Bird]

I used to watch both.

In memory of the Kylie/Jason wedding and Shane Ritchie's BBLB prediction about a certain couple having a Christmas No1 with their version of 'Especially for You'....

Neighbours

One for the oldies now:

Tiswas or Swapshop?

[kaphc]

Swapshop! I was never allowed to watch Tiswas as it was on ITV and my mum and dad didn't want me to be corrupted by the adverts!

Next .......

Teddy bears picnic or roast Sunday lunch (Brian's birthday presents in BB2)

[BusyBee]

Roast Sunday lunch (one of my specialities - I was using Marmite in MY gravy well before someone else mentioned it)

Land line or mobile phone

[Boris]

Mobile for convienience !


Bath or Shower

:spin2:

[BusyBee]

Now this is really difficult - they both have their good points, but overall I think it must be

BATH - nothing like a lovely long luxuriant soak in a bath full of lovely smelly bubbles with candles and a lovely glass of wine. Pure bliss.

Money or love :love::love:

[kaphc]

Oh it's got to be love, hasn't it?

Money is useful but not if you are surrounded by people you hate!

Cut flowers or pot plants

[bananarama]

Pot plants. They last longer.

to purchase either a plasma tv screen or a swim with the dolphins.

[Romantic Old Bird]

I believe the Dolphins deserve a break,
what did they do to deserve my wobbles and varicose veins in close proximity?

So I'll go for the plasma screen!:laugh:

[Boris]

AND ....the next choice is ???????

COme on ROB. I am the one that forgets !:joker:

[Skip]

:sleep:

[BusyBee]

ROB - We are waiting or are you hoping for a call from Mr Clarke telling you that keeping us waiting is not in order and to get a move on.

[Skip]

:sleep::sleep::sleep:...wake me up before you go go... :sleep::sleep::sleep::sleep::snore::sleep::sleep:

[Boris]

ROOOOOOOOb.....!


we are STILL waiting !:nono:

[BusyBee]

R O B

Such deriliction of duty could see you Court Martialled!!!!!.

We ARE waiting. I have my suspicions as to what you are up to. I dooo hope its not a trip to a certain couple to help out in beauty testing without telling us.

[bananarama]

ROB has probably gone for a swim with the dolphins after all. Or too busy watching the plasma screen:laugh:

[Romantic Old Bird]

Soooooo sorry people

I am busy crocheting a very long christening gown in very fine wool

As it's Saturday ......

Pop Idol or Fame Academy?

[Janette]

Pop Idol simply because Simon is nicer than Richard!


(Oh and Will won Pop Idol)

:thumbs:

[LEE]

Oh and Will won Pop Idol

http://www.eng.warwick.ac.uk/~es770/wandgpix/wgsmall1.jpg

[Boris]

Well Gromit does it for me every time !....( like Shawn the sheep too)


Brown Bread or White bread........( hope we haven't done this already it seems a bit obvious )

[Sticks]

Sorry but Janette did that on the 15th of October and I replied with neither, Wholemeal

[LEE]

Oh don't be such a grouch Sticks, I'm gonna answer it this time.

I like both, but I'm only eating brown at the mo down to Slimming World :hugesmile:

Butter or Margarine

[Sticks]

Butter as it has more cullinary uses, however at the moment I have to use the chemically produced stuff :bawling:

OK

"This Or That" thread (http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=28412)

or

"The Kiss of Death" thread (http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=26705)

[BusyBee]

Difficult this, but I think it has to be
The Kiss of Death
cos it has such a good reason for being in existence ie to protect our Boris.

Comedy or drama

[Janette]

Comedy, no-one can laugh too much!

:hugesmile:


Big PC or Laptop

[Stu xxx]

Protons are just plain sexier! xxx

Cake Mixture or Icing? x

[Boris]

Hello Stu we have missed you you know....


It just has to be 'cake mixture'.
When i was a little girl - a very long time ago - I used to wait while my MUM finshed cake making so that I could 'lick the bowl out'. it must be a hundred years since then !!!!


Hot toast or cold toast

:xyxwave:

[Boris]

y default it has to be numismatics, because "Philately will get you nowhere"


Best this month?...week ?...well it's a good one sticks :thumbs:

[BusyBee]

When i was a little girl - a very long time ago - I used to wait while my MUM finshed cake making so that I could 'lick the bowl out'. it must be a hundred years since then !!!!


I still do if I have the chance:blush::blush:

Hot toast - dripping with butter with either marmalade or a touch of marmite mmmmmmmm


Chocolate digestives or plain

[Sticks]

Plain

Chocolate has a mild toxin in it which means if you eat too much it makes you sick. So you can eat as many plain digestives as you like. :thumbs:

You can also crush them to make a biscuit base for a cheese cake :dance:

:xyxwave: or :wavey:

[kaphc]

:wavey: - because it's more of a full-bodied wave!

Matt Lucas or David Walliams

[Janette]

I hope I'm not the only one, but I've never heard of either of these people!

:blush:

[Stu xxx]

Matt Lucas for his fantastic brilliance in Little Britain as Vicky, Majorie Dawes,
Dafid e.t.c

Leopard Skin or Zebra Skin (patterns)

[LEE]

Leopard Skin - reminds me of Helens dressing gown lol

(I hadn't heard of either of them either Janette :hugesmile: )


Europe or America

[kaphc]
