There's no top level sport in my country.
Are you talented at drawing/painting?
I can draw a bit, never really tried painting.
One day I really want to give it a go.
Do you find Coati's Cute? (If you don't know what a Coati is, then look it up on google or something)
Very cute.
Do/did you have a pet?
Where I live now no, but I have had several dogs (the best one being a 50-50 cross German Shep-Irish Wolfhound). Two or three cats, rabbits, tropical fish etc. I really want to move somewhere with some land so I can get a donkey and a goat.
Apples or oranges?
Oranges.
When was the last time you told a lie?
I have never told a lie. ;)
(See what I did there)
Where has The South African 555 gone?
He was going on holiday up country with the family, should be back home in a week or so.
Do you miss him?
Yes. I also took a few weeks away from the forum and wondered where he had gone. Thanks Anfield5.
How long have you lived where you do? (House I mean)
Since I was born. I love this house despite being unconfortable and having very expensive utilities. Hope to live here till I die.
Have you ever had to take care of an old sick relative?
Yes, My mother had a stroke quite young and was very sick. My Father worked so I cared for her for around 2 years. Then my father retired and my mother is a lot better now and so they live a semi normal life.
Have you ever been to a Rock Concert of any kind?
Been to a Boomtown Rats concert when I was very young.
Then I still have memories from a concert of romanian band Vama Veche. I wasn't a fan but my ex-boss forced me to go and I felt like I was from another movie.:p
Have you ever been to a ballet performance?
Went to Copellia when I was a kid, and have seen the Nutcracker. I love the music esp Tchaikovski, the actual dancing part, is very impressive, but truthfully it does nothing for me.
Are you planning to watch the Winter Olympics?
Don't think so. I'm no longer interested in winter sports and I don't even know today's best competititors.
Do you wear a wrist-watch?
Yes. Only at work or out, never round the house.
What are you doing this weekend?
Hard to say as a terrible weather is forecasted. On Saturday I should go to a commemoration of a relative. In the evening I'll meet some friends at one of them's house and play cards and drink beers till midnight. On Sunday I should take care of my mother who's very sick and cook. something as she's not able anymore. Don't know if I'll have time for shopping and cleaning the house. But definitely I shall make paths in the snow a few times cos they say it would be snowing all the weekend.
Do you like to cook?
Yes I do, but its something that I actually rarely do. Which I suppose suggests that I don't like it. But I really do when I get the chance.
Do you watch TV much?
Nor a huge amount, there are certain things I can't miss, like TopGear, Mythbusters, Ehh Headsand some sports, but other than that, it is often on in the background, but most of the time but I normally couldn't tell you what was on it.
What is your favourite movie genre
Don't have a fav. But definitely I can't stand ""action'' movies and not a fan of sci fi too.
Have you ever made a snowman?
Yes. I have made quite a few when I was young, and about 2 years ago I made one again after probably 10 years and it was still just as fun. Carrot for a nose, coal for eyes and buttons. A stick for a mouth topped off with old scarf and hat.
Have you ever been snowed in your house/building?
I have all the chances to be snowed in my house this weekend as a red code of snow falls and snow storms threatens my hometown.
In the past I was confronted with heavy winters with a high layer of snow and in the morning I was the first on my street to go to work and the one who had to make the path. Grrr....If I hate anything then this thing is winter.
Have you ever been snowed in your car?
No Luckily we don't get that much snow here, and if we did I would generally stay away from driving.
Do you enjoy answering these questions on Word Games Forum?
Yes although it's weird cos I don't like to talk about me. Maybe I dare to talk because nobody knows me here.
Have you ever been skating?
Yes a long long time ago. We I was young. I was actually not bad as I had been used to Rollerblading.
Which is/was your favourite decade? For the record mine was the 90's young a free back then. Enjoyed the TV and music too.
Definitely the '70s. There were years when even the communist regime wasn't too tough. The cultural life was amazing - great movies, great theater performances, great and cheap books in stores, many art galleries. And a terrible appetite for them.. Unfortunately I was too young to take advantage of these....
Have you ever traveled on the stairs of a crowded bus? I mean such crowded that the doors remained open and passengers traveled on the last stair.
No. Sounds scary.
I'm intrigued, Have you ever traveled on the stairs of a crowded bus? I mean such crowded that the doors remained open and passengers traveled on the last stair?
Yeah, a few times in the past. These days I don't travel by bus and they are no more allowed to travel with open doors.
However never dared to travel like this

Would you dare to travel like this?
No I am too much of a scaredy cat.
What is the most dangerous thing you have ever done?
My first job was outside the city and I used to accept the invitation of a coworker to be driven to the central part. She was a public danger on the road, we all knew she's the worst driver who took her licence due to her bf, still we were happy to get home earlier. Once she even avoided the barrier of a railway and we were about to be hit by the train, just like in the comedies with Keystone cops. It was always a competition to get to her car earlier to avoid the front seat.
What are your plans for the weekend? :p
Well tomorrow I have to re organise my kitchen after it has been refurbished, then in the afternoon I will play football with my friends.
Sunday the rain is meant to be terrible so I don't really know what I will do. Probably post in the word games forum with you Gadjo. :p
What time will you wake up tomorrow?
I couldn't sleep too much anyway as it was very cold but I kept staying in bed until 8. I would stay longer but at 10 I have to be at the commemoration.
What's the lowest temperature you had to endure?
Only about -8, I was outside looking at the thermometer.
Whats the Hottest Temperature you have had to endure?
Summers are really hot here and sometimes temperatures grow over 40°C. Problem is that they measure it outside the city, in an airy place and in the shadow. In fact they are much higher in the central city where I live and also much higher at the pavement level. Add to this that the heat is associated with high humiidity and the index of discomfort is exceeded. However I prefer the heat and to throw bottles of cold water over my head instead of trembling of cold.
What's your no 1 wish at this moment?
For my painful Foot to heal, so I cant run properly again, rather than hobbling like a 70 year old.
What is your favourite animal?
Cats. Love them although I don't own one.
I also love penguins cos they look as helpless as me. :p
What's your fav cake?
Chocolate gateau. Can't beat choch and cherry
what is you fav day of the week
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Oh, Thursday doesn't even start
It's FRIDAY I'm in love
Saturday wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But FRIDAY, never hesitate.
:p
Who's your fav musician?
I could say 'The Cure", but that wouldn't be quite true :)
I don't really have a fav but I am a 60's child from Liverpool, so the Beatles are quite important, I like Queen, The Eagles and others. I also love listening to music by Stanley Myer s (Cavatina is simply stunning) and I love Greek bouzouki music (Zorba's Dance, Ta traina Pou Figan etc)
What is your fav musical instrument?
At infant school we had a percussion band. the most musical kids had tambourines and so on down to those with no ear for music who had triangles. I had a triangle! So I suppose that must be my favourite.
Are you at all musical?
I used to play Guitar but sadly I let it go and now I dream of playing only.
(Risky question)
How old are you?
(Risky answer) I'd rather not say but I was born in 1966
