Just in case anyone is not aware yet what this is all about...

This thread is for people to either offer, or be nominated by another member to go into The HOT Seat, so we can possibly find out more about our friends here.
Once in that 'hot seat' so to speak, the idea is for other members to ask that person questions about their life and interests in general.
Perhaps where they live, do they have pets, do they like a drink, do they go on holidays much, and if so where?
I don't really know, as that is for you to decide.
The person will be in the 'Hot Seat' for around 2 days (around 48 hours) answering questions as and when they can.
That's the general thinking anyway.
Please feel free to offer either yourself, or nominate another forum member, who may or may not want to do this of course.
I think that you will all agree that our VickyNightowl, Ameriscot, Ina, Sifuphil and Ralphy + Boozercruiser all did a rather sterling job in answering their particular questions. I for one feel that I know a lot about them than I did before, which gives me a warm glow.
So now sitting in The Hot Seat is Gail.S
Gail.S will be strapped in until sometime Wednesday.

One question per post per time please.
;)

Thank you so much for offering to step into the breach!
I would like to ask you...

What is your earliest memory?;)

PS. Admin.
Could you please make Gail.s a Gail.S please in the thread lead.
I neglected to put the capital letter in.
 
My memory is very much like fishnet, and not due to age either, I have almost never had any ability to recall the past. Like a goldfish every day is almost a new day to me. I would say thought my earliest memory/being told about it so much it seems like a memory is the disappointment I felt and expressed upon hearing my mom was bringing another brother for me home from the hospital. That would have been the second brother of what would prove to be five (I was the eldest in my family) and I said, "I don't need another one."

Thank you for being such a good sport Gail, and that is a very good answer.
There should soon be lots of questions for you, but before I go to bed, and others post, can you tell us/me...

What's your biggest regret?
 
I am from as small Middle Tennessee town and as a teenager couldn't wait to leave it. Then life happened and I never left. Regret I didn't spread my wings before settling down to do the wife and mother thing.

Yes Gail, I can see exactly where you are coming from there.
I do believe that I would have regretted that also.
I will now hand over to others to ask you questions about yourself and your life.
I look forward to that, as I can already tell you are a very interesting Lady.
 
Bedtime here. Snow falling, thirty degrees makes bed sound real good. I will be back in hot seat sometime tomorrow morning. Night all.
 
Good morning Gail. You have said you live in Tennessee.
Do you live in the mountains?
Are you country or city?
Have you been a horse owner?
 
Hi Gail

First time I have been on a USA forum and the culture differences are a little bewildering to say the least. One posters is expecting 8 inches of snow and another complaining about the heat. Anyway I just love those USA States, Tennessee the name just rolls off the tongue and I love all things new in life. Don't worry about my stranger posts, people find them strange in the UK.:D

Anyway I guess my question must be , are you happy and could you do with more in life.
 
Hi, Gail.
Pleased to make your acquaintance...

Are you a Hillbilly or a Ridge Runner?

Do you have a crafty slurp of the Moonshine when nobody is watching?

:playful:
 
I snuck a peek at your profile even though we aren't supposed to.

Any problems being a liberal and vegetarian in TN? I lived in Knoxville for ten years and it was tough.
 
Gail, if you could just pick up and move anywhere else (money is no object), where would you live?

Annie, I think Canada. If I packed up and moved there the culture shock wouldn't be as great and there are parts of Canada that are comparable to weather in Tennessee. I would like to move away from the US because of how backward we are in social issues and how all we are good at is going to war. If Sanders win the Presidency I might have to reconsider my desire to move.

Yep, and there would be a bigger major problem if I told people I was atheist. But, yeah, me being to the left of liberal politically means I never tell anyone these this about me unless I know they will be alright with it. I have felt like a stranger in a strange land since I became self-aware as a kid. I can't imagine how good it would feel to be able to speak freely when first meeting someone.

Maybe we could get a two-fer - I hear it's cheaper that way. ;)
