I struggled with this prompt at first because I don’t get bored. There’s always something to keep me occupied and interested. I remember being bored as a child or a teenager, but not as I grew older. I never had enough time to be bored!

However, if I think about the prompt more deeply, some things do bore me or perhaps they annoy me. Cleaning is repetitious, and never seems to end, especially with a Border Collie in the house! But it isn’t the actual act of cleaning.

I put on some music or a podcast and off I go. It’s satisfying to see the results of my endeavours. But one dog walk later and we’re back to square one. And the fur, don’t mention the fur. For all that, I wouldn’t want to be without Zeph.

Watching some sports on television would bore me but as I never watch them, they don’t! Mr FF is an avid sports spectator, including cricket, golf and snooker. I, on the other hand, would rather watch paint dry!

What – if anything – bores you?
