DO YOU SLEEP WITH A STUFFED ANIMAL?
Yes - oh sorry, that's my bf, no stuffed animals. I have a 'clanger' on my bedside table. I loved The Clangers when I was a kid. Sorry to all those who have no idea what I'm talking about - it was a kids show I watched in the early '70s

STORMS - COOL OR SCARY?
Definitely cool, but they give me bad headaches - something to do with the change in air pressure I think. It's rare for storms to be really dangerous here. A holiday caravan park on the south coast was once flattened by a twister which was really unusual - I don't ever remember one happening in England before. So it's fairly safe to enjoy them, as long as you don't play golf.
