Room-temperature lasagna.

Do you butter the smooth side of a Jacobs cream cracker or the crumbly side?

We don't eat cream crackers.

Do you have butter or margarine? We have low fat flora margarine.

To a certain extent I guess.

Which is your least favourite month of the year? Mine is November.

Don't have one, good and not so good things can happen any time.

Did you learn about flags at school (scouts/guides)?

I remember learning about the Union Jack's different-width white diagonals, and the that the wider ones are supposed to be at the top next to the flagpole.

Have you read 'War and Peace'?

Like many people I tried reading it, but soon gave up.

Did you enjoy your school days? My first school was a nightmare, but the Ladies College I attended for my secondary education, which resembled Hogwarts, less so.

Not especially. Some parts were ok.

Do you like misty, moist, mild, melancholy autumn days like today? I do.

I prefer misty, mild,joyful autumn days where I am above in the sunshine looking down upon the mist, like today.

Yes (I should add for work reasons)

Have you ever fallen into a lake?

(I have, many years ago in Australia we had been rowing and I did that comedy thing of having one leg on land and another on the boat before the boat was tied down. Much amusement shown by the relatives present, much red facedness on my part)

No.

Have you ever been involved with a fire in a building.  I was, when I noticed some window curtains in an upper floor had dragged into an ash tray and caught fire.  I picked up the nearest fire bucket of water and threw the water at the curtains but missed.  The water went through an open window and soaked some people standing at a bus stop below.

No, though I was rudely awoken on December 12th, 2005, at just after 6 o'clock am, by an incredibly loud bang. I looked out of my bedroom window, and saw huge flames in the distance, between the two houses opposite, and realised that it must be at the Buncefield oil storage depot, about half a mile from my house.

Did you hear the Buncefield explosion (It was heard over a very wide area, as far away as the Netherlands), or see the smoke pall?

I have no recollection of hearing about that incident, let alone hearing the explosion. 

Where were you when the hurricane that wasn't a hurricane occurred in 1987?

In bed at home, and later walking to work through it (though it was past its peak by then).
Where were you born (as precise as possible)?

Planet Earth. That is precise considering how many billions of planets there are in the universe. :P

Have you ever had a very stormy flight? Years ago I was flying back to the UK when a storm hit, we nearly didn't make it. :o

Correct answer. The king of pies.
Beer all day (proper beer, that is), though I don't mind a good cider occasionally.

I have no idea, I used to cycle to school in the 60s.

Have you ever handled a Geiger counter? My father had one, left by the Germans in our home after the war.
