Saturday 9 - Little Red Corvette

                         Join in the meme fun by clicking this link

1) The subject of this song is frankly sexual. Do you blush easily?  Blush? No. Hot flush, yes, with the speed of a Tsunami...! 

2) Prince is his real name (Prince Rogers, to be exact). Growing up, his relatives called him "Skipper." Do you have any nicknames within your family?   Nicknames are widely used within my family and friends - especially from my husband.  Got a nickname for everyone he has - mine are listed on my sidebar.

3) Prince says he's "obsessed" with Mozart and reads whatever he can find about the composer. What's the last book you read?  Choose Me by Kay Langdale.

4) Between Prince and The Beach Boys, the Corvette is a much sung-about car. Tell us about your vehicle.  Quite an old Astra Zafira, which I clean and the Cheaper Half drives.

5) In the 1980s, when Prince was popular, MTV could turn a song into a hit. In 2014, how do you hear new music?  Mostly from the music stations on telly and my son usually has something banging on from upstairs. But I'm willing to listen to anything - apart from R&B, rap and heavy metal.  That's all just repetitive piss to me.

6) In 1982, when "Little Red Corvette" ruled the airwaves, Braniff Airways shocked the travel industry and threw passengers into chaos by declaring bankruptcy. When did you last fly? Did your trip go smoothly?  My trips never go smoothly no matter what method of travel I choose!

7) 1982 is also the year Disney opened Epcot. Have you ever been to a Disney park? If only!

8) 1982 is the year Cheers premiered. The sitcom was set in a bar where "everybody knows your name." Tell us about your favorite local bar or restaurant.  Don't really frequent bars these days but I do enjoy a few hours in Ricky D's - who do an 'eat all you can' world buffet.

9) The 1980s were considered a highpoint in professional tennis, with Jimmy Connors and John McEnroe dominating the sport. Do you play tennis?  I love watching tennis but playing badminton....sadly not so much these days.

I love the way you describe your blush. I can just picture it sweeping over your face!

His real name is Prince Rogers Nelson, to be über-exact :-).

I have a really hard time with rap music. Just not my thing. I was experiencing hot flashes for a while too but they just went away. Phew.
