A bag of pre-mix mortar to finish off a garden project.
What is the biggest DIY job you have tackled?
does cleaning the gutters count as DIY?
what noise do you find to be the most annoying?
some machine cutting or polishing tiles......its on right now somewhere out there ....it is always ON Grrrr, somebody is either building houses or renovating!
Do you listen to the radio?
not that often any more. Hadn't really thought about it until now, but I haven't listened to the radio for years. Listen to my own music instead.
How many hours of TV do you watch?
Less these days since starting my current project :p No time anymore.
What do you do to relax if short on time?
Depends on time of day/night. I like to read and always have a couple of books on the go. If at home I will pick up a guitar or banjo and play. At work I usually go out to the cafe up the road and get my friend Jess to make a coffee and have a short chat about nothing whatsoever.
DO you know any people who have names that suit their jobs eg. my above mentioned friend Jes is a baritsta and her name is (honestly) Jessica Coffey - perfect!. There is also a plumber in Opunake (small Taranaki coastal town) called Dwayne Pipe :D
I know someone with the surname Butler but sadly he isn't.
Its grey and overcast here today. To get the game moving whats the weather like with you today?
started off windy, wet and cold. But the sun has just emerged, and ALL of the clouds have gone - now clear blue, windy and cold.
Final week at work has just started. What should I do first on Friday afternoon?
Grab a beer or two with a friend (that's what I'd do) or go out for a drive in the countryside.
Do you ever watch a movie on your own? or any activity alone?
I also wanted to suggest this. just go to Jess's pub.Quote:

Whats the plan today?
Work till 17.00 ( hopefully..... ), home I have to defreeze the fridge :angryfire: and hope to have time to watch an indian soap.
What will you have for lunch?
you won't understand what I ate :s
wheat roti + potato/onion curry + thick yogurt added to cucumber and carrots (kinda like tzatziki)
same question?
I'm eating right now.:p
A fresh pepper filled with a cheese paste made by me ( telemea sheep cheese + creamy cow cheese +butter+ much fresh dill ) and a fresh tomato.
Still thinking if I should also eat a fruit passion yogurt as a desert.....
Do you go out for lunch or eat in the office/at home/etc.?
both or neither. If I stay in the office lunch is usually just a cup of tea.
What is your fav lunch?
I miss the summer food cooked by my mum.
Now I have to be happy with a pizza or some filled mushrooms.
Do you like to eat sweet food ( like cookies, cakes, ice cream, chocolate, etc)?
Yes I do, my fav is a strawberry cheese cake I make with a raspberry topping. Sadly I am not supposed to eat much sugar (history of diabetes in the family) and artificial sweeteners are never as good.
What is your fav sweet?
Too many to be mentioned. Almost everything with a cream.
What's your fav spice ( not girls :laugh: )?
depends on what I am cooking, all different and most are good at different things, plus nutmeg is poisonous.
what is the worst cooking disaster you have ever had?
:laugh:
Almost all my adventures in the kitchen are a disaster.
Let's just say that a month ago I was trying to cook some rice following a receipt from internet. They said you shouldn't lift the lid so I didn't but I burnt the pan. :laugh:
Who taught you to cook?
As kids we helped in the kitchen and from 12yrs onwards my sister and me would cook once every week for the family. From there mostly trial and error has been a good teacher.
do you cook/bake without recipies?
I'm very inexperienced so I use to consult recipies. On the other hand the Romanian cuisine is quite different of the Macedonian one to which I'm used so I try to remember what my mother did. The result is a disaster, anyway......
When was the last time you had a haircut?
Yesterday believe it or not. A beard shaved off too. :p
Was that question aimed at me? ;)
Same Q?

Back:
I think that about 2 months ago I had shortened it a bit
When was the last time you had a proper bath (meaning laying in a bathtub )?
Answer the question then :D
I did. :p
Editing after the event is cheating Gadjo. :mad:
I do not have a shower. So always have to lay in a bath tub. I enjoy it after a long day at work.
Do you have a shower or bathtub? If both which do you prefer?
Both but I prefer shower. When I lay in the tub the steam makes me sick. When I'll renovate the bathroom the tub will be gone.
Do you like to stare at yourself in the mirror?
Yes :laugh::erm:
Same Q?
No. It will get broken :devil:Quote:

Do you ever plan to move house in future?
No. Never. I love this old ruin. Besides I'd never be able to buy a new house in this area. It's too expensive.
How many TV sets are in your house?
I know. That's why I deleted the request. :pQuote:

Do you listen to the radio much? If so what stations.
Only when I'm at work and against my will.My colleagues selected a station that doesn't air too many ads, Magic FM, They play old boring music that is repeating evey day.
Do you spend time in clubs?
Not really my scene. Don't like big crowds, don't like loud music.
When did you last go to hospital?
Never been for myself. Last time I entered a hospital was last year on February when I was trying to send my mother there.
Have you ever fallen asleep while posting here? :angel:
Nope
What time do you usually sleep?
