I'm sure I can think of loads more, but these are the ones that I can think of right now | "Books That Everyone Absolutely Ought To Read At Least Once In Their Life": What's in the list? |
| 52 | Hello | "Books That Everyone Absolutely Ought To Read At Least Once In Their Life": What's in the list? |
| 53 | Nice to see you back. You and msgman have reappeared within days of each other. I approve | "Books That Everyone Absolutely Ought To Read At Least Once In Their Life": What's in the list? |
| 54 | I'm not sure - a couple of years I think. How long have you been gone - a similar time, I should think? I'd be getting suspicious if I hadn't met him several years ago! | "Books That Everyone Absolutely Ought To Read At Least Once In Their Life": What's in the list? |

| 56 | Maybe a mouthful of water. I usually can't face anything more than that until I've been up for at least four hours. I was sat in a meeting on Thursday morning and was offered chocolate cake, but it was only 10am | Typically, what kind of "Breakfast" person are you? |
| 57 | I do love Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. When I was young, I always wanted to write a version of Robin Hood from the perspective of the Sheriff of Nottingham. | How do you feel about the concept of a P.O.V. Sequel? |

The sharks would probably creep me out the most, of they made their way into British waters (though that's unlikely, if the Gulf Stream moves). | Which of these potential side effects of global warming do you care about? |
| 60 | I'm from Yorkshire. I'd be getting into arguments all of the time if this bothered me. People use them in most social interactions when dealing with people they don't know. Love and duck are probably the most common here. In Liverpool it was Queen, girl and la' (for lad).
It does bother me a bit when people use terms that aren't part of the normal local dialect (or their own dialect). When I was a nursing assistant, a doctor once asked me to get him something and then said "Thanks, honey" and that did bother me. | Does being addressed by "terms of endearment" from strangers bother you in anyway? |
