By the time I was 15, I had the vocabulary, writing and reading skills of a 3rd year graduate student. However, I also had the maths skills of someone in the 6th grade. I did understand higher maths though like game theory but still this day I could not tell you what 9x7 , I barely know division and fractions.

I know almost every word to every Top 100 song of the 1960'-1970s. and usually know some tidbit of trivia behind the song/singer/ musician.

I know every word to every Golden Girl episode, (all seven seasons)

I collect perfume and have over 100 fragrances. I know them all by heart, but I'm still developing my palette, so I would not call myself a connoisseur yet.

I know how to make exceptional bath teas which I give to friends and family especially around the holidays. I also make my own exfoliator scrub and hair rinse.

I am an excellent saucier but hate to cook ( so DH and I make the perfect team Smile

I was a MUA in my old life and I am quite a MacGyver at it. I managed to make my friend look quite beautiful only using eye shadow, a highlighting liquid, olive oil and cherry flavored lip gloss.

I'm quite fun at parties. Grin

Obscure Christmas carol verses. My friends and brother think it’s hilarious that when we go carolling I know all the verses not just the first verse!

BBC’s pride and prejudice + book and persuasion book too.

Brian Jacque’s redwall novels.

Glad to see some other bleak expectations and cabin fever listeners out there!!

I would have been another one for Serial Killer back when I was 13 (I was an odd child Wink) but I’ve probably forgotten about as much as I remember now. It’d be Father Ted these days. Actually all the Glinner comedies tbf.

Ooh yes, London postcodes! I know them all.

Elderflower TB was dreamy for about two years. I think Betrayed is so romantic Katie/Cathy should have left the FBI and married him. John Mahoney and Ted Levine are great in it too.

I'm a female with an avid interest in military history. It's my passion!

If I had to specialise I would probably go with the Battle of Britain - short and intense (4 months), as that's the subject I am probably most knowledgeable on.

For back up either English Civil War or the Napoleonic Wars.

Ursaminor · 16/01/2019 01:06

The "Anne" books by L M Montgomery (which has been on and I got all the points);
and, for contrast, as I am nothing if not a renaissance woman, Culture Club! Grin

The Real Housewives (of any city in the US)

Hominins - Neanderthals etc.

I really enjoy reading about the other now extinct members of the homo genus.

I was obsessed with apples for years for some reason and have quite extensive knowledge.
