Bellapop 2016? Have I got the original date wrong? I suppose it makes sense to have Olympics in the same year! :)

What does the Duchess of Cambridge do with all her outfits after the event?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 9 Aug 12

I'm assuming the Duchess only wears each outfits once and very rarely twice. They are all obviously created and signed with care and attention by well accomplished designers, not to mention the cost and time that goes into them....

Bellapop I just think it's such a waste for such expensive outfits to be only worn once and then stored away forever...

Does anyone keep a snake as a pet?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 4 Jul 10

Are snakes difficult to keep as pets? And why did you choose to keep something as exotic as a snake rather than a cat, dog or hamster. Do you still take it to the vet?

Bellapop yes I totally agree, they look absolutely amazing and I could stare at one for hours and hours. There is something that looks like a snake in our garden now – the slow worm, at first I really thought it was a snake but is that it was a legless reptile that...

The start of 2012 - what does it mean for you? Are you happy or sad?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 31 Dec 11

This is the first time at the end of a year that I feel like this - I'm actually feeling a little sad... depressed at the thought after all these years I have achieved very little, having to face up to the realities of my current...

Bellapop hello Rob's wife, I really empathise with you, I am only 31 right now but my parents are also a large part of my life, as I get older I also think what will happen when they pass away. I know exactly what you mean, and think about this a lot of time, this...

Ways to unblock a kitchen sink - 'naturally' ?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 30 Dec 11

Sorry for the 'naturally' bit - the kitchen sink is blocked right now and we're just not keen to put sink unblocker down it until tonight as we still need to use it for food etc. We've tried vinegar, boiling hot water and baking...

Is it true that people who own cats are not as friendly as those who own dogs?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 30 Dec 11

I've noticed that people who own cats don't seem to be as friendly as those who own dogs, I have found this with quite a few people - at least, the people who own cats don't seem to give way to you as easily as those with dogs....

Bellapop Oh no, I don't mean that cat owners are selfish or nasty in anyway, just suggesting that perhaps 'less' friendlier than those who own dogs and whether this is really the case...(am offending a lot of people with this?!)

Running with bare Feet or padded Trainers?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 30 Dec 11

I've just read an article about this clinical survey that has been carried out on people who run in trainers and those who run with bare feet - the results show that people who run in trainers subject their joints to more shock...

Bellapop It's very interesting as I've always thought that good padded trainers help to protect your joints. I have to walk around a lot and I definitely notice the difference when I walk round in a pair of flat heeled ballet pumps and padded trainers - I find that I...

Do you wash your face in the morning? Which product you use?

russell_21 @russell_21 (210) • India 30 Dec 11

I have heard people saying and telling me that we should not wash our face in the morning after getting up... I asked them the reason for it... they told me the you will become old soon and start getting wrinkles... Do you...

3 responses

Bellapop Well, I try to wash clean my face everyday - not a big deep clean, but to apply a little cleanser and do a once over rinse, for me its necessary because I will need to apply moisturiser and then make-up, I think people generally look better and healthier if...

How can a 56 year old man marry a 20 year girl?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 17 Jul 10

I know it's probably very narrow minded of me to think this way, but it really annoys me when I see a 50+ year man knowing that it is not appropriate to marry a girl who's barely 20. The girl may feel the same 'love' for this man...

Bellapop Yes, I know what you mean, it may be that the girl is from a very poor family and perhaps this man also happens to be looking for a young wife - in this instance, as long as the man is of good character the man is probably the best option for the girl...

Why do men of the same age always look younger than women in comparison?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 23 Nov 11

Alternatives to bread and pasta?

Bellapop @Bellapop (1279) 23 Nov 11

There's been a lot in the media lately about how bread is not as good it used to be, as it stops people from losing weight, causing digestive problems etc. this apparently goes the same with pasta and white rice. I'm finding that...

Bellapop I was wondering about this as well - for being the other way round, would it be rude to eat chips with a fork? Sometimes, when there's just too much sauce, I would prefer to use a fork, but I do remember one time when someone said to me 'hey, why aren't you...
