Not often. But having said that, I have thoroughly enjoyed the chocolate bunny and chocolate elephant my [grown up] kids gave me for Easter.

I simply don't know.
Is it OK to play music on your computer when you share an office with other 8 people?

Kinda depends on the type of music, can't image being too happy sitting next to someone playing death metal at 8:00am in the morning.
What sort of music would you consider to be ok to play in the office?

I don't think it's ok to play any kind of music in an office. I can't concentrate on my papers with perturbatory noises around. Sometimes I have emergencies or very difficult tasks and the radio is playing a merry tune or romanian songs with stupid or trivial lyrics. Occasionally, coworkers who usually have nothing to do and have a relaxed only neuron start to sing along or even dance showing off a joyful performance while you crack your brains working. I hate those noises even if I take a pause, I have enough personal troubles to think about and some rap music is the last thing on earth I need to listern to. I also find disrespectful the way some coworkers use their cell phones. They choose annoying and loud signals to get notifications or even loud sounds when they simply touch the screens. They will click for hours....
Right now a coworker brought her 5 y.o. daughter at the office. She's adorable but I have to work and am not interested at all in kindergarden poetry and tunes.
Where you live, do the girls polish their nails at their workplace?

I work in the rain and mud in peoples gardens. Not much hope of polishing nails there.

Sleep.
I'll have a sort of national mini holiday from Thursday to Monday, so don't wake me up.
Do you have reliable neighbours?

Matter of fact I asked this Q because I was terribly disappointed by 2 neighbours. They live on my street for about 30 years and I asked them to help me by being witnesses for an important paper that I needed from my mother, who wasn't able to sign. First they accepted but then when the notary came to my home they became reticent. The notary ridiculized them so they became angry and left leaving me in tears and in big trouble. It was just a simple formality and they knew how much I needed that paper. The problem is that in this area people can't afford houses and most of old neighbours left, being replaced by companies or new people who don't even say hello. The only nice people are in the next court, the couple that lost their son in that terrible club fire. Still they like to stay private.
Have you ever collected stamps?

no, but my mum used to, there is an album at her place along with several boxes of unsorted stamps, all up we estimate she has over 10000 of the things.
if not stamps, is there anything else you collect?

Not that I collect it, but my music library grows and grows, including stuff from Renaissance to ambient and alternative rock.
Same Q.

Yes I fear so too, you just need to look at the new cost for tourists to get into Venice and when everyone sees the amount of money being made others will soon follow, and prices will go up. As...
