1. Do you use serviettes/napkins when you eat, or are they just for fancy meals/when you have guests?
I always use a napkin when I eat. At least ten years ago, we decided to stop using paper and so I have numerous cloth napkins that go with the season we are in.
2. Are there Christmas lights in your local town/city? Post a photo if you have one.
3. Have you ever hand made a gift (or a card) for someone?
4. International Day of Banks. Do you use more than one bank for your investments/savings/general bill paying, or is everything in one place?
5. Do you own anything with fake (or real) fur trim?
6. Do you own a microwave oven? What do you use it for?
7. Have you ever tried an alcoholic cocktail, or a non-alcoholic mocktail? Do you have a favourite?
8. Today is Green Monday: the most lucrative shopping day of the year. This is usually the last day that people can shop online so that the purchases can still arrive in time for the holidays. What’s the last thing you bought from an online retailer?
9. If you have a battery smoke alarm in your home, do you check the batteries regularly?

19. What’s the last thing that made you laugh out loud?
20. Have you ever had to wear a neck tie?
21. Yule is celebrated today to honour the triumph of light over darkness. As the longest night passes in the Northern Hemisphere, people rejoice in the promise of longer days. What time is sunset for you today?
22. Have you any famous/well known ancestors?
23. What do you think of eggnog?

29. In 1886, the dishwasher was patented. It was invented by Josephine Cochran, who lived in Shelbyville, Illinois. She constructed the first one and won a prize at the Chicago World Fair (and was used by the restaurant industry). Do you own a dishwasher or wash your dishes by hand?
30. It’s National Bacon Day! What’s your favourite way to eat bacon? Have you ever tried vegan ‘bacon’?
31. It’s New Year’s Eve – how would you sum up 2025 on a scale of one to ten? Let’s stay positive - what was the best thing that happened to you this year?
