Robbinn's bio
I live in Camberley, Surrey with my husband, three cats and our tortoise. I love walking and the outdoors, and have just started cycling so we can explore the many cycle paths we have seen. We started Geocaching in the summer and thoroughly enjoy it. My main hobby is cooking and I love trying new recipes. I also love the Isle of Wight where we have a holiday home. -

Is the correct use of grammar and spelling important to you?I have just read a newspaper article online and cannot believe how many spelling mistakes there were. This, in the age of spell-check, is terrible.ViewDate:

Help me find something new...and Healthy!Have you tried Geocaching? My husband and I are hooked. Look at geocaching.com. We walk miles but with the excitement of finding hidden caches (or not finding them, as the case may be) in the most unexpected places. There are 'millions' of caches worldwide and so many within a short distance of most places. We regularly plan days out specifically to do a series. It's a very healthy hobby and you can, if you want, become quite involved.ViewDate:

Gluten FreeI've always loved cooking and when it was discovered that my husband was wheat/gluten intolerant, I started cooking him meals accordingly. He hated the gluten free bread sold in supermarkets so I found some recipes such as Almond Bread and Courgette Bread which he loves and I keep a stock in the freezer. Quite a few friends ask for recipes so I started a recipe blog at robbinnsrecipes.com if anyone would like to see how we cope. We also eat no refined sugar, no processed food and everything make is from fresh and the benefits are enormous.ViewDate:

Do you have potatoes with every meal?No, we don't have potatoes with every meal. I love baby new potatoes, jacket potatoes etc but with the amazing range of vegetables we now have, potatoes are but one of the wide choice. Long gone are the days of meat and two veg and I enjoy trying the abundance of new recipes appearing all the time. Last night for instance we tried Cumin-roasted carrots, and earlier this week I did a paprika-rubbed roasted cauliflower which carved like a joint and was amazing. Sweet potatoes are fast becoming one of my favourite vegetables and I even made some sweet potato Rosti the other day (I'm not vegetarian by the way). It's nice to get out of the old habits of cooking and I enjoy trying new things.ViewDate:

Have you drawn up a Will yet?Since having children in my twenties, I have always had a will in place. It has been altered a few times over the years when circumstances changed and it was also well and truly impressed upon me by my solicitor to remake it after I had divorced and remarried.ViewDate:

Do you find beards attractive?I have been married twice (still married to my second husband) and both men have had beards; kept trimmed and tidy and I really like them. My first husband went through a period of having a long bushy beard back in the seventies/early eighties. I find it unbelievable that so many people think that beards harbour last night's dinner, or even worse last Wednesday's food. Both of my husbands have been immaculate in keeping not only their beards clean but also their hair, body, etc. I am sure there are some men out there who have unclean beards but like as not these men probably are a bit unclean with their hair, body etc (as are some women).ViewDate:

10 Reasons to Buy a Slow Cooker (+ recipes!)I would love to hear from other people who use a slow cooker about their experiences. I love cooking and have owned a slow cooker for years but, apart from the money-saving side of it, cannot honestly say I like it. I have only one recipe which I really like doing in it - Orange and Chicken Curry. I have tried recipe after recipe; from cookbooks and my own, but whatever I cook seems to have a distinct 'slow cooker flavour'. I really love an old-fashioned casserole in the winter months but cannot find a recipe for one in the slow cooker which comes anywhere near the flavour of one cooked in the oven. I've tried all sorts of different foods; flavourings, spices etc; also browning meat and vegetables; not browning meat and vegetables but to no avail. I hear other people rave about slow cookers but just cannot understand why - apart from the ease of putting something on in the morning and returning home to a cooked meal.ViewDate:

Are you feeling happier as you get older?My husband retired from full-time employment two and a half years ago but continued in the same industry on a part-time basis as he was head-hunted by various firms. Only this week he has decided to finally finish after 53 years in the same industry. Yes, I think we are both getting happier as we get older (although I have never been 'that' unhappy even through difficult times). We both raised our children (different marriages) and saw them to adult status with families of their own; we love our grand-children but they are not our responsibility. We have both worked (and saved) hard so are now enjoying the fruits of our labours. When anyone tells me how 'lucky' I am to be in this situation, I remember the lean years (and believe me I had a few) when I begrudged the little I put towards a pension but I always did, and I begrudged paying my National Insurance stamp - but I did so now I am very grateful that I kept everything going. Not everything is rosy all of the time but being negative about things only makes for unhappy people. I try and see the positive in everything and enjoy each day as it comes. My husband and I are free to do as we want with no encumbrances and will hopefully continue to enjoy life to the full.ViewDate:

Are you plagued by nuisance phone calls?I rarely use my landline and any unknown number is immediately diverted to answerphone; it doesn't even ring. The numbers that get through are 'banned' but we still get calls although less and less now. I don't get nuisance calls on my mobile (yet) and would like to get rid of my landline (BT) but I use it for my internet connection and I need a good strong download/upload which around here is best from BT. For the few calls I get through, I try not to get stressed out and immediately tell them to take me off their list. I emailed one company who kept calling and appeared not to take me off their list and they were very apologetic and I have had no more calls from them. I understand they have to remove your number if requested.ViewDate:

Do you have insurance for your pet?Fifteen years ago I had three large dogs and three cats and all were insured but over recent years the cost of the premiums has escalated so much that we now no longer insure our animals. (No dogs now, just three other cats). It is not too bad when they are young but premiums rise so quickly and any problem won't be covered if you try and change insurers. One of my cats cannot be inoculated so insurers don't want to touch her; my oldest cat has regular treatment which we pay for and we now "pay as we go" on all of them. Our own vet does a form of insurance but we don't use it. Many of the visits to our vet would not be covered on any insurance ie dental, de-matting (an unfortunate frequent occurrence with two of our cats because of their dense undercoat) and nail trimming ( I could do this myself but prefer the nurse to do it whilst I hold them). Having animals these days is quite an expense and should not be undertaken lightly.ViewDate:

Will you go and see Fifty Shades of Grey?I really don't understand how anyone can criticize a book/film when they have neither read the book, nor seen the film but have only heard the 'gossip'. I've read the trilogy and can see no 'abuse' in it. It may not be to everyone's taste but what happens is between two consenting adults. S. Hall and R. Harris were imprisoned for very different crimes. I will probably see the film although not at the cinema as I don't like big screens. Will wait until I can see it on Blinkbox or similar. There are many far more 'intimate' books available if one chooses to look. One must also ask oneself why this trilogy has topped all the best-selling charts around the world. It is very, very popular. Eroticism in quite a mild form.ViewDate:

Would you consider having a GP consultation via webcam?My doctor already does telephone 'appointments' which I feel happy doing if the problem does not need a physical examination. All I need to do is telephone in the morning and be put on her list of calls to make (I am usually given an approximate time, ie early afternoon, late afternoon). I would be more than happy to use a webcam for some of my appointments.ViewDate:

Do you trust eating advice shared via the media?I believe many of our problems stem from the 'added' ingredients in food. For example: Butter - Cows milk; milk fat Well-known Spread: Water, vegetable oils (sunflower, palm, linseed, rapeseed); plant sterol esters; olive oil; buttermilk; modified waxy maize starch; salt; emulsifiers (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids, sunflower lecithin); preservative (potassium sorbate), citric acid; flavourings; vitamin A, D and E; colour (carotenes). A healthy, varied diet without convenience food to me seems the very best diet of all. Everything fresh; if it's in a packet it's no good. I was shocked the other day when I read the ingredients of a simple stock cube when I can make it using chicken carcase and/or vegetable peelings. I even make my own tomato sauce these days from tomatoes, onions, a bit of red pepper, herbs and spices. My grand-daughter loves it and it really does not take long to make (all left-overs in the freezer for next time). Since last August I have completely changed my way of eating; no sugar or convenience food. I decided to do so as a healthier way of life; not for medical reasons. Since doing so, my already quite satisfactory blood results have decreased substantially (cholesterol, blood sugar etc). I get a print-out of all the results and it is very interesting to see the marked difference but the main result is that I feel so much healthier.ViewDate:

Would you like to turn back time?I was reading an article recently on staying 'young' even in our senior years and one of the most important things is NOT to dwell in the past and hark back to 'the good old days' but to live in the present. Of course, it is lovely to remember certain things such as lovely holidays, family gatherings of long ago but they are memories - nice to touch on briefly - but we must look forward to today. I for one, love the lifestyle of today; the endless possibilities that new technology has brought us; the amazing selection of fresh food and groceries every time we walk into a supermarket; new drugs being found all of the time to combat disease that once seemed impossible to overcome. Every age has its problems and violence and perhaps one day this will also be overcome.ViewDate:

Should wealthy pensioners receive state-funded benefits?If someone has paid tax and NI contributions all of their working life, then of course they should receive exactly the same benefit regardless of their 'wealth'. It is then their choice if they wish to donate that benefit to a more worthwhile cause. I know of two or three people who insist of paying for their prescriptions even though they are entitled to 'free' ones. What I do find annoying is when I hear people complain that they only receive 'so much' from the government in the way of a pension yet they have never contributed towards one.ViewDate:

Speakers Corner CommentsDo You Want to Wind Back Time? Just recently I have read of so many people who want to return to the fifties, sixties, seventies etc and seem to want to live in the past. What do other readers think. I can remember lining up for the necessary innoculations and praying that I wouldn't be last in the queue as the needle got blunt (yes, they used the same needle for the whole class); only being able to buy a limited range of vegetables; being able to play outside and having to come home when it got dark; having only one television channel and that was in black/white. We've come a long way but although life is very different now, I welcome most of the changes.ViewDate:

Do you celebrate Valentine's Day?Being in a partnership, love can be shared every day but I think it is also important to remember the 'special' days such as anniversaries, birthdays and Valentine's Day. Doesn't have to cost much - a simple bunch of daffs, a card, or something special if you want to. I believe it keeps romance on track regardless of how 'old' you are. Hopefully I will never be too ancient to appreciate a thoughtful gesture whether it is from my husband or from someone else.ViewDate:

What irritates you the most about mobile phone users?It was interesting to see that when I voted, the poll was almost neck-a-neck which agrees with my thoughts that mobile phones can get in the way in social situations AND be annoying on public transport. Mobile phones are absolutely brilliant for many reasons but I do believe they are making people less and less polite. I have lost count of the times I have been bumped into because someone has their head down texting and didn't look where they were going; I refuse to have them on my dinner table where conversation is king, but I cannot make that rule at other tables. I must live with it and try not to be a grouch when I see others consumed by their mobiles.ViewDate:

RosieI have many similarities with you. For thirty years I bred Goldies but also always had, and still have, three cats. My very first cat was called Tiggy and she was very tiny and completely black. Joining her were Bobby and then Co-Co. We couldn't have had three more different cats. Bobby was in charge of everyone including the dogs; very majestic long-haired male who always slept underneath my desk in our office. Co-Co was talkative cat; not pretty but a character and she sucked a blanket and never pawed. Tiggy was the lovable cat who always slept on my bed, even though my husband didn't like her on there. If I was laying stretched out in bed, she would invariably straddle my lower legs and "paw" me for ages. As unfortunately happens, my husband and I divorced. I moved into temporary rented accommodation where they allowed no animals so the dogs and cats stayed with my ex-husband. After a few months the landlord relented and allowed me one cat. I chose Co-Co because Tiggy, Bobby and the dogs hated being apart. Co-Co was always the odd one out. I remarried and moved with new husband to Camberley, quite a distance from my other animals who I didn't see for a long time. One morning I was enjoying a lazy lie-in after my husband had left for work when Co-Co for the first, and only time in her life, jumped on the bed, straddled my legs and started "pawing" me. I knew almost with certainty that something had happened to Tiggy. Not long after I received a telephone call from my ex-husband telling me that he had gone downstairs that morning to find Tiggy curled up on the pouffe where she always slept, but that she had passed away. She looked asleep. I've always found it quite comforting that somehow Co-Co had known. After this, I ended up having Bobby to live with me as he was devastated at the loss and needed more company. He lived to be 19 years old but Co-co died at about 12 Years. I know have Sheba 12, Joseph 8 and Mishka 5.ViewDate:

Would you like a White Christmas this year?I would love a White Christmas but unfortunately it brings Britain to a standstill as we are just not used to it. Other countries seem to cope and we were once in the USA over Christmas when the temperature was -22. The snow was very hard but everyone just carried on as it was normal. My husband and I loved to go out walking but the Americans thought we were mad and actually slowed down to look at us. Seems they never walk but drive everywhere. I do remember being completely snowed in when I was younger (early sixties I think) and again in the seventies when I lived in a cul-de-sac and no-one went to work for nearly a week and schools were closed.ViewDate:

Should traditional nativity plays include pop songs and aliens?As mentioned in an earlier post, I was invited to my grand-daughter's Christmas Production today entitled 'It's a Cracker'. This was performed by ages 5, 6 and 7 and is so popular that it is being held on three afternoons with admittance by ticket only. "This delightful musical brings together the traditional nativity story and a typical contemporary Christmas. As crackers are pulled around the dinner table, the heart of Christmas is also unwrapped" Every child was able to take part in one guise or another and you could see from their faces, how much they enjoyed it. Everyone I spoke to loved the modern production which showed love and happiness around the dinner table at Christmastime with Grandma and Grandad showing what their early Christmases were like compared to the modern times. The whole story was centered around the Christmas cracker which was invented in 1847 and which has become a familiar sight today. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.ViewDate:

Should traditional nativity plays include pop songs and aliens?I have been invited (next Wednesday) to my 5yr old grand-daughter's first 'Christmas Production' at 'big' school; originally called their Nativity Play. This production is so popular that we need to have a ticket to attend. Out of interest and because of the different comments in this thread, I thought I would like to chat to the parents/grand-parents who attend to ask their views on this more modern version of a Christmas Play. I'll follow up after the play with my findings.ViewDate:

How do you like your Christmas tree - real or artificial?When my children were young we always bought a 'real' tree; the dropping needles were all part and parcel of Christmas. Then we graduated to artificial ones but I never was as pleased with them. Now we spend Christmas with my grown-up son who always has a real tree, and I usually buy a small potted one for our house. These are planted out after Christmas and nearly always continue to grow. One of these is now in our front garden (and getting bigger each year) and I now decorate it with outside lights and it looks great.ViewDate:

What are your views on hospital car park charging?I used to do voluntary work at my local hospital and because of this had to sit through some very long and boring H&S meetings. Much of it was not of a lot of interest to me, but some things were. At one meeting the subject of car park charges was brought up and until this time, I was one of the people who complained about them. It is my understanding that the hospital is given £xxx per year to cover everything including staffing, treatment, food, keeping everything up-to-date etc and the job of the person who oversees the budget is quite horrendous. Figures were put forward as to how much it cost the hospital to keep the car park in good repair and the figure was absolutely huge. And this huge figure comes off the budget for everything else, including treatment. Therefore they have people to come in and run the car park which covers the cost of upkeep and also makes the hospital not have to take this figure off their budget. I for one would rather have the hospital's money going towards my loved one's treatment rather than the up keep of a car park. There are very good bus services to the hospital and even the staff are regularly reminded to try and use them as car parking is limited at most hospitals. In the same vein, there is talk of patients paying a small amount towards their food whilst in hospital which I think is quite a good thing. The catering budget for a hospital is enormous and a small contribution from a patient again would help direct the money the hospital receives towards treatment rather than catering. The government is trying to pump money into hospitals to enable us to have more doctors, better treatments, etc so by paying for parking my car there, perhaps I am helping in a very small way.ViewDate:

Should traditional nativity plays include pop songs and aliens?I believe we have to keep up with our changing times. Considering over half the population follow no religion, and only 6% of the population are regular church-goers, then the traditional nativity play is becoming outdated to many people who do not believe in Jesus - the nativity play of course being the story of Jesus. Updating the story so that the majority enjoy it seems, to me, to be the right way to go although I know this will upset many people.ViewDate:

Beware of the Trolls!Thank you Claire - I really enjoyed listening to you reading your poem. I was a member of an internet forum for about eleven years in connection with a little business I ran. It was so helpful (especially in the early years) to be in touch with others in the same business BUT then came the trolls. At first we tried to laugh at them; ignore them; even blocked them; but regardless of what we did, they still manage to cause disruption, arguments and general unrest on the site. Thankfully I was able to ignore them most of the time but others were hurt and offended and quite a few left the forums never to return. I often felt sad for them as it was obvious to see that they hid behind their internet name; never wanting anyone to see who they 'really' were and the fact that they never could prosper in the business and hated anyone who did. I still dip into the forum (rarely) and some are still there. Perhaps they have nowhere else to go. How very sad. Thank you for your poem.ViewDate:

Has Christmas become too commercialised?I agree with Juniper7Lindsay in that we should be examples of how we view Christmas. For some, it is a religious festival whilst for others it is a time for family get-togethers which for some can only happen once a year. We each have a choice as to whether we buy presents on a large scale, or perhaps we believe in teaching our grandchildren that a very small, well-though-out gift is just as much appreciated. Whilst I have no religious connotations with Christmas, I absolutely adore the atmosphere of peace and goodwill. Only yesterday, I taught my little grand-daughter how to make an old-fashioned pomander with an orange, some ribbon and cloves. Some would call it a christingle but to us it is the scent of Christmas. I abhor the terrible scenes of Black Friday but are they any different from the scenes of Boxing Day sales from previous years and Boxing Day is British not American. "When you gather around the Christmas tree or stuff goodies into a stocking, you're taking part in traditions that stretch back thousands of years — long before Christianity entered the mix. Pagan, or non-Christian, traditions show up in this beloved winter holiday, a consequence of early church leaders melding Jesus' nativity celebration with pre-existing midwinter festivals." I've quoted the above but it is what many believe in so I believe Christmas can be celebrated by the many believers or unbelievers in religion.ViewDate:

Do you buy travel insurance when travelling overseas?I always buy travel insurance when going overseas, wherever I am going. I have had two friends, with two different experiences: The first (in her late sixties) was in Spain when on the second day suffered a TIA. She was hospitalized for a whole month, undergoing many different tests and was not allowed to travel for six weeks. Thankfully her insurance company covered everything (and her husband's extra expenses of staying on to be with her) until she was fit to travel. My second friend was not so lucky - she had insurance but was in the USA when she broke her leg. She had not disclosed the fact that she had treatment for breast cancer four years previously and this invalidated her policy. Somehow they managed to pay for minimum treatment (which was very expensive) but the cost of getting home was horrendous as she needed so much space.ViewDate:

Motoring: Dashboard Cameras on private vehiclesI would welcome having a camera on board; no doubt it would pick up some bad habits of mine which I have developed over 48 years of driving but I would love to be able to capture the numerous drivers using a hand-held mobile phone whilst driving. I don't think it's Big Brother - just trying to make our streets a bit safer. This makes me feel really old but there are so many cars on the road these days that it is rarely a pleasure to drive. Everyone seems to be in so much of a hurry; impatient at any queue; tail-gating or overtaking when almost impossible. But my pet hate is seeing the phone users and for that reason alone, I would put up with a camera.ViewDate:

GreetingsAnother newbie here - living in Surrey but we spend as much of the summer on the Isle of Wight as possible in our holiday home. Adore the I o W and did consider moving there when my husband retired but decided against it (on the advice of some locals). My husband is 67 and I am 65 but don't feel it. We love walking and have just bought bikes for the first time as there are so many beautiful cycle paths around. We are not far from Windsor Great Park so we are often cycling around there. We have three cats and a tortoise who hibernates underground every winter. He is at least as old as me, if not a bit older. If anyone would like to have a little laugh, go to YouTube and put in the words Tolly Tortoise. He chases one of my cats around all summer. Hoping to make some new friends on here and join in the discussions. GillViewDate:

Reducing salt intake in your dietNot sure where to start as I stopped using salt 38 years ago when my son was born (at the time he had a kidney problem and salt was banned so we all decided to stop using it). I absolutely love herbs and spices in cooking but I don't think I have an actual favourite. At the moment I am infusing olive oil with lemon peel, cilantro and rosemary - these three flavours add a very distinctive touch to cooking. I have been infusing garlic but have been warned that there can be a problem with this so I am going to check it out before recommending it. Black pepper, chilli, cumin, coriander, paprika, cayenne come to mind quickly, whilst fresh rosemary, basil, mint, bay, parsley. chives I pick from my pots both at home and on the Isle of Wight where we spend much of the summer. I have always loved cooking and experimenting and the other day I made a tomato sauce for my grand-daughter. I can't remember the exact ingredients except it what what was left in my fridge. I roasted some tomatoes, half a red pepper and half a red onion then blitzed it with a touch of chilli, some garlic powder, paprika and parmesan. She absolutely devoured it with her chicken goujons which I had made from fillets covered in gluten-free breadcrumbs, parmesan, garlic powder and paprika. Served it with some sweet potato 'chips', carrot sticks and mange tout. It was a fun meal (which she had requested) as we had three dips for the chicken - tomato (as above), guacamole and cucumber raita. She has just turned 5 and it is such a pleasure cooking for her as she will try anything. Her family are sugar/wheat free (from choice) and I have been following their guidelines and can honestly say I feel better for it. I also use mustard quite a lot to flavour various things. Wholegrain mustard stirred into mashed potato is yummy, and a sauce made from wholegrain mustard and a little honey whisked together is a delightful salad dressing.ViewDate:

Is modern technology really anti-social? Does it get in the way of real, old-fashioned conversation? What do you think and are your experiences.I think we have to be very careful with all this 'new' technology. I love my iPad, iPhone, etc and they are broadening my horizon tremendously. My husband and I started Geocaching this summer and the iPhone and iPad are wonderful tools taking us to places we would never have discovered. On long walks/cycle rides I can find out exactly where we are and the easiest route back. I can do my banking wherever I am with either my iPhone or my iPad; I can read a book; order train tickets etc etc. I do believe there are times and places to use them and also to NOT use them. Good conversation cannot be beaten. No phone or iPad anywhere near the dining table; when friends call everything is put down or turned off; when we want to have a chat or just a comfortable time together. When my husband wants to watch something on television which I don't particularly like, then my iPad comes into its own. I can be in the same room as him and watch something else (using earphones) so we are together but I don't have to watch football, which I unfortunately dislike. My luxury is first-thing in the morning with a cup of hot lemon reading the newspapers on my iPad. Both my husband and I like our 'own' time first thing in the mornings so this works well. Last thing at night, I usually play a few hands of cards - again on my iPad - whilst my husband is downstairs listening to his jazz which he loves to do last thing at night. The social media sites keep my friends and family much nearer even though some are a long way away. I believe the important thing is to have quality time together and use the new technology as and when suitable. I for one, would hate to be without it. Edited to add: I do believe, however, that the younger generation do seem far too attached to their phones and that includes my own family. There is nothing more annoying than having a lovely chat with family members when you get the 'oooh I must reply to this'.....ViewDate:

The danger of hidden sugarsI have been following a completely sugar-free diet since July of this year and the benefits have been enormous. So much more energy; I've lost weight where I couldn't shift it before and not by actual dieting, but by changing the way I eat. I feel so much healthier. I have been following The Juicy Health Company on Facebook and it has given my interest in cooking such a boost. -
