What bores you?

I do not tend to get bored. I am quite content with slower moments and my own company, although those are fairly rare. As a family we are usually busy, and when things do quieten down I will normally use the time to catch up on something I have not yet managed to get around to.

If there truly is nothing pressing to do, I am perfectly happy to switch off, relax and even fall asleep.

In terms of situations that might leave me feeling bored, small talk is high on the list. Conversations that feel polite but pointless, especially with someone I am unlikely to see again, can quickly drain my interest. The same goes for television or films that fail to engage me from the outset. If they do not capture my attention early on, it is hard to stay invested.

My quick takes…
