I'm glad I'm not the only one with survey madness then! I've just done one about smartphones which showed me different images and asked which each represented to me. There was no "none of the above" option so I left it blank, and was then told I needed to provide an answer 😡!
Was your one yesterday for The RepTrack Company, Jess? I can't bring myself to do any more of theirs - as soon as I see the logo I have to close it down 😮!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

Oh, I'm not sure. I just tried to blast through a few as quickly as I could. No idea who the owner of the survey was!2025 decluttering: 4,011 🌟🥉🌟💐🏅🏅🌟🥈🏅🌟🏅💐💎🌟🏅🏆🌟🏅🌟

Staffordia said:My survey asked me in depth questions on cruises and what it would take Covid wise to make me want to travel. The issue I have isn't with Covid but the fact I get terribly seasick so would never do a cruise anyway!2025 decluttering: 4,011 🌟🥉🌟💐🏅🏅🌟🥈🏅🌟🏅💐💎🌟🏅🏆🌟🏅🌟

I would LOVE to go on a cruise one day. So sad seeing them all at anchor at the moment and not going anywhere 🙁
P.S. I'm hoping cruise ships are so big you don't get seasickness, as I suffer too😮!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

I went on a short cruise to Amsterdam and back when I was a teenager. It was really fun and I would love to do it again!Rule 7: If you're not changing it, you're choosing it.

My hoover is my bug bear. The only cupboard we have had the boiler in so the vacuum just lives in the hall and I hate it!
surveys also make me smile - I wonder if people actually sense check them sometimes.DFW (08/08) £64,346.53 Gone (02/19)

SC no seasickness on large ships except for crossing the Bay of Biscay which is notorious. Anti nausea pills until you get to the other side and you are good to go. Love cruising but this years was cancelled because of Coronavirus but fingers crossed next years booking for May will go ahead.All that clutter used to be money4

That's a relief then Sayschezza 😀 Now I just need to convince BF to actually go on one. He likes the idea but complains they're too expensive ("Yes, but that's not the point" 🙄🙄🙄) I sincerely hope things are back to normal in time for May and you can go.
The hoover used to be an issue for me too DFOD. I had a cylinder one with a monstrous hose that flapped about no matter how much you tried to tuck it away 😠 Now swapped for a stick type (which folds in half!!!) and just about fits in the multi-function cupboard 😀Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

Great op there SC 😊
We went on our first cruise about seven years ago after our friends couldn’t go last minute and managed to transfer it over to us and we’re surprised how much we enjoyed it and have been every year since , except for 2020 of course 😬 if you book at the right time (usually 18m-2years ahead 😱) you can get great deals, currently this week is preview week for P&O and prices can be around half of what they would be later down the line. Of course not everyone wants to take the plunge right now of course!MFW 67 - Finally mortgage free! 💙😁4
