1. What is your most memorable recent dream?
We've been watching a lot of the 'Saving Lives at Sea' documentary on the
BBC, about rescues by the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution). I
expect this is behind a dream where I was bouncing around in a boat on
very rough seas. I woke up from that.
2. What instantly improves a sub-par day?
A walk in the (hopefully) sunshine. Even if it's nowhere special, I
always feel happier after a walk. Bonus points for blue sky and
fluffy white clouds.
3. Is there an uncommon, little-known, wellness or beauty hack you use?
For example, I feel about under my rib cage for 'hot spots', and tap
or massage them until either the sore feeling is gone, or I forcibly
exhale through the mouth.
I used to suffer from indigestion and nausea quite often. I would buy the
very strong ginger chews from the Asian grocery store in the USA. That's
about us unusal as it gets... and it's hardly little-known.
4. What is something that feels embarrassing but shouldn't?
Hearing myself speak. I run a monthly public call for work that is
recorded, and I don't think I'll ever stop cringing at that.
5. If you live in a small space, how do you responsibly discard or recycle
excess items?
Not really related to a small space, but we've tried to sell /
give away to friends or the internet public, anything that might be
useful. Other stuff goes to the local recycling center, which will
take most things.
