I used to have a roll or sandwich at my desk. (This was normal as a sandwich lady came round the office)
Do you think drinking (alcohol) at lunch time should be banned?

I think it should be looked favorably at. ;)
What's your preferred drink?
Sent from my Lenovo P70-A using Tapatalk
Beer
Do you often go out to drink after work?
I'd like to but due to my responsabilities I don't ever have time to do it.
Red wine or white wine?
Red, red, I want red
There's no substitute for that!
Lager or ale?

I hardly drank any ales (it's mostly a pilsner market) back home, but ever since I moved I'm mostly drinking ales,especially Belgian white/Hefeweizen :facelick:
Your favourite style/brand of beer?
Nut Brown Ale, Samuel Smith is one of my Fav's, although Newcastle is one of my staples.
Do you sleep well?
Yes nearly always. 12-7 every night really.
Will you enter the Fantasy GP this season? / Or if you have already do you think Gadjo will? :p
As we already know, Gadjo is a moody person, so who knows?
We also know that she has no clue about F1 but she likes maths challenges so at some point she might take the exercise of matching the 5 options in the sum of 48 milion.
Guess I answered both questions....:angel:
Do you like to bet?
Nope. Around ten years ago I lost a bet with a co-worker regarding how long our president would stay in power. I though it would not last and got it wrong. It cost me a bottle of Johnny Walker.
What's you fav pastime?
Stalking complete strangers on facebook. :angel: :p :sailor:
Same Q
Its opposite. It is either gardening. I can easily spend a day outside amongst the plants and just enjoy nature. Or it is also being with my friends and playing football.
Do you stalk people on Facebook? If so who was the last person you stalked
In fact, I kinda opposed being stalked. I started getting friend requests from Mid-eastern gentlemen who I had nothing in common with and I just asked them questions about who they were and what they did and they just would go silent.
Do you think social networks are evil?

Rudy, I swear it wasn't me in disguise. :p :sailor:
No. Unless you're idiot enough to get friends with unknown people about whom you don't have a clue.
Otherwise it could be fun. Esp. if bosses become friends with the employees and check how many of them are online at work. :p
How many fb friends do you have?
175 although some of those I barely know to be honest.
Has social media made it easier to have friends or not?
Not in my case. I prefer my friendships close and meaningful and the social media are not good at establishing this type of bonds. They can help with maintaining the existing ones, though.
Do you use business like social media (LinkedIn etc)?
Sent from my Lenovo P70-A using Tapatalk
No way. I hate serious stuff.
Do you use to post pictures of yourself on social networks?
ps Rudy, aren't the forums a sort of social media?
sometimes ;)
When did you last go out for a nice meal somewhere & where did you go?
On february. At an italian restaurant. Not a fancy one but the food was good.
Will you have an Easter meal? If yes, what will you eat?
No I will not be having a special Easter meal. Just a normal Sunday Lunch. Roast Lamb, Roasted & seasoned potatoes and seasonal veg.
Do you watch movies?
Wow, what a coincidence! Just last night I was thinking a lot about my cinematic tastes. I like watching a good flick from time to time. The trick is to find the right one. The last couple of days i decided to go for some classics. On Friday night I watched 'The Spy Who Came In From The Cold ' with Richard Burton and loved it. Last night I watched 'Rocco and His Brothers' and gave up after one hour (it's three in total). I know it's considered an absolute masterpiece but to me it seemed a little theatrical and then I was just plainly uninterested in the times of the post-war social transformation in Italy.
Can you recommend some tough realistic drama or crime/spy story to watch tonight?
Sent from my Lenovo P70-A using Tapatalk
No I can't really. I am not a big movie fan. I watch all sorts of sport and a few TV drama's here but almost never watch films at home or at the cinema.
Do you brush your teeth reguarly? :p
Twice/day.
What are you wearing right now?
Rudy, I recommand Cidade de Deus.

Thankee, Gadjo.
I wear a motley set of casual/sporty clothing consisting of a T-shirt, a sweater and running pants. You?

Hmm.... Not much, considering I'm just on my way to the shower.:devil:
What's the last thing you do before going to bef?
Hmm, that sounds, well, like being on the way to shower...
And I am on my way to bed, actually sitting on it. Now I'm gonna pray and then fly to the world of my dreams to some soft music.
Do you normally start your morning with coffee?
Sent from my Lenovo P70-A using Tapatalk
Only on weekends. During the week I don't have time.
Can you yodel?
Not sure I have ever tried :spin:
Can you then?
Yodeleeii
Yodeleeii, yodeleeii, yodeleioo
Yodele yodeleioo

Yodeleeii, yodeleeii, yodeleioo
Yodele yodeleioo
Seems that I can :angel:
How much sugar do you have in your coffee?
I dont drink coffee :stareup: I used to have one sugar in my tea. Now I only have a half.
Do you eat much chocolate?
Not often. But having said that, I have thoroughly enjoyed the chocolate bunny and chocolate elephant my [grown up] kids gave me for Easter.
Do you there should be a world-wide ban on trade in ivory?
I simply don't know. :confused:
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.
I have a national holiday here today? If you had a sudden day off what would you do with it?
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?
My neighbours on one side are a mother and young kid, with a teenage son and some suspicious friends. On the other side I have an Ice cream man. He occasionally gives me left overs. Not that friendly though. Keeps his distance.Quote:

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.
