1. Have you ever played snooker, billiards or pool?
I have played pool many times, but not consistently. I am ok at it. I think snooker might be fun.

It must be toasted for me to enjoy it. I don't care for the texture of it raw.
3. Do you like Welsh Rarebit? Have you ever made it?
What's not to love; bread, melted cheese. Yes, I have made it in the past, but not for a while.
4. What is your favourite tree?
I really like Japanese Maples. All of the different varieties of shape and color leaves.
