Beer in the summer wine in the winter.
Have you ever thought to adopt a child?
Yes but I'm afraid I would not love him/her as much as I would mine ;(
Do you understand why everybody is infatuated with zombies lately?
They remind people of their own families.
If Zombies have no functioning brain how do they shamble about and eat people?
:laugh: No idea. Magic? or supernatural powers?
Do you watch Rugby?
Only the internationals - Scotland for myself and England with my wife
do you collect anything?
F1 Races on DVD. I have every GP since 1989 on DVD and am now in the process of transferring to Hard Drive.
To learn about others I will return the question
do you collect anything?
Used to collect magazines but my brother cleaned the attic and threw then away.
These days I collect only bad memories
Do you like to decorate your windows with curtains?
not decorate , but yes thick curtains to keep out the sunlight...and ofcourse lots of money spent on picking the right style/colours too :\
Do you like hot or cold weather?
Both of them are hard to bear but I prefer hot sunny days to cold grey winter days.
What is your fav mean of transport when you travel?
Actually very hard to say..I love motorbikes, cars and trains! I love planes too but it gets boring pretty quickly in a plane on a long journey.
I would pick the car though.
What is the most distance you have driven in one go?
Not that far in the greater scheme. About 200 miles in one go.
How long have you been doing your currant work?
So many that the law says I deserve a medal. Even this insignificant honour is denied by my dear country.
Do you think I'll wake up tomorrow?
It depends on if you go too sleep tonight or not
Would you rather read a book, or watch the movie made based on said book?
Movie. Not a big reader of fiction.
Have you ever ridden a horse?
Never riding a horse. But I was on a horse for taking a pic. I was scared cos the horse wasn't for riding but for carrying a cart and hadn't a saddle. Still I mimed a happy smile. That pic is a real laugh.
Have you ever been to horse races?
Nope never have. Not something that really interests me. I feel to sorry for the horses.
Have you ever visited a large house or posh garden?
Only castles-museums like Peles Castle in Sinaia and its garden or Queen Maria's castle in Balchik with its famous botanical garden.
Have you ever visited a battlefield?
Yes, there are many battle sites in this part of NZ from the Land Wars of 150 years ago.
Have you ever ridden an animal other than a horse?
I have ridden a great dane ( my grandad had one when I was young) but I would really like a chance to ride on an elephant.
What is your favourite animal
Penguins and seals.
What are you doing when you can't sleep?
Reading Motorsport Forums. :p
Have you done much research or reading on your countries history?
Yes, I arrived in New Zealand as an 8 year old, and decided then to find out as much as I could.
Should atlas' be re written with the names of countries written the way the locals would pronounce them, eg we call Finland, Finland while the Finnish people call it Suomi, so should we all call it Suomi?
Maybe both one under the other. Plenty of room for that in a detailed atlas.
Do the clocks change in your country at certain times of the year?
Yes.
Where has my answer to anfield5 Q ( about the atlas ) disappeared? :confused:
Stop censorship! :angryfire
Did you perhaps hit "SAVE DRAFT" instead of "SUBMIT"? I've done that on occasions and lost my response.
Alternatively, you may have been a page behind and the reply was therefore nonsense so one of the mods (not me this time!) may have deleted it so the thread made sense.
Onwards -
Do you believe that there are occasions when [government] censorship is acceptable? I so, when?
In some circumstances censorship can be justified, but only if it serves the common good, but not just to keep us in the dark or to stop us from making our own judgements.
Imagine if you will NASA (or some such) has discovered a huge asteroid hurtling towards Earth. On impact every living thing on Earth will be obliterated. Would you want to know, or would you be happier to continue living your life in ignorance, until..... BLAM!!
Good question. I probably would not want to know, simply because I wouldn't want to live my last few days worrying about it.
Did you do anything to acknowledge St. Patrick's day?
No but in my home city it was a parade.
What saint is the most popular in your country?
none really.
do you prefer gold or silver?
silver
At what hour do you usually have lunch?
12:30pm-1pm normally. Its normally quite a dull lunch. Sandwhich or Paninni or something.
What are your impressions of Argentina? (Asked because I am watching a Argentine Football Match)
Well, never been there but I have a weird atraction for South America in general and Argentina in particular. Talking about football Argentina is my fav national team. It started by having a crush on Mario Kempes ( :rolleyes: :heart: :stare: :heart: ) then on Batistuta and Caniggia ( hope you noticed what these 3 guys had in common - a very long hair :D ). In my opinion Maradona was the best player of all times, the kind of player who was able to win a game by himself.
Ironically the best achievement of my country at a world cup was in USA-1994 when we managed to send Argentina home after a 3-2.

What are your impressions of Romania? (Asked because I live there and I hate life)
I am not going to bluff, I don't know too much about Romania.
I have watched TV documentary's and seen Bucharest and certainly the main areas look beautiful and magnificent. However general life in Romania I don't have a real picture of.
What do you think of the New/Old look Forum?
It feels good going back to the old style, although the previous more modern one was not a problem for me.
When do you have your next holidays?
In 4 weeks, at Easter, we have Friday and Monday off.
Do ignorant people playing crappy music on tinny sounding cell phones annoy you?

Ok, same q, what is your favourite tv comedy?

If a tree falls in the forest and there is nobody around to hear it - does it make a sound?
