Yes. I have worn glasses since the age of 18. They are for long distance vision. So I have to wear them all the time really.
Here's a gross one. Do you have any false teeth? :p

Here's a gross one. Do you have any false teeth? :p
Lol. Yes. Dentists in my country always will come with the solution of an implant or reconstruction just to take a lot of money. Greedy......
Do you have a day off for May 1st?
You already asked this question, didn't you? I answered no, stating that we have May 19th off instead to celebrate(?) Queen Victoria's birthday.
Do you typically shower/bathe in the morning or evening (or not at all :erm: )?
:stareup:
I have a shower in the evening and a very quick one in the morning-cos I'm always in a hurry.
Now that we're asking intimate Q, : how often do you wash your hair?
I don't have enough hair to worry about, so it gets touch of shampoo about once a week
(And in Britain we get the May Day holiday on the first Monday (5th this year) so we can make a long weekend of it)
Do you believe the theory that says it's better not to shampoo your hair daily as it simply induces the hair to produce more oils to compensate?
Well, romanian theory is once/week and I think it's a healthy one. Daily washing would also mean losing a lot of hair.
Do you use to have fresh flowers in your home?
Not usually, mainly because I can't be bothered growing and picking them.
What colour is your house/flat, and can you repaint it if you wish to?
Outside it's white - well it is under the grime. Inside, each room is a different colour. We own it so we can repaint it if we want - or can afford to.
Should window frames always be painted white?
No. I have brown frames in the rooms with a view to the street/court just because the house is old and has a distinctive style and decorations.
How many rooms has your house/flat?
Only 5 plus a hall way (six if you include the wc.)
Do you actually like where you live?
The city or the house? The city is ugly and dirty but I live in a beautiful area and it's in the middle of the city so I have good connection with any part of it.
The house is an old one and belonged to an aristocratic lady. It needs serious repairs but I love it. I could sell it and get a lot of money then move to a convenient place (but not in the same area) but I don't want it and prefer the agony of damaged pipes and shrunk walls.
The country? It's the cross I'll have to wear......
Do you like to sail?
Strangely no, I say strangely because I absolutely love sailing ships.
Do you like to fly? either with or without a plane?
Having flown quite a bit, flying in an airliner has no attraction any more - it is just a glorified bus. Now, small aircraft are a different matter - I like them them and would love to fly a microlite or glider - I'm not sure about hang gliding though. What I have done once is flying without an aircraft. They have a vertical wind tunnel and basically you are free falling relative to the air but only a couple of feet above a metal grille so you can't get hurt. Great fun!
On a similar theme, have you ever been caving?
Just during a trip with my school. It's a shame cos we have many spectacular caves here.
Have you ever been in a salt cave?
no, never even seen a salt cave
What about white-water rafting?
I don't know what you're talking about. :p
What utility has the most expensive bills for you?
Electricity prices are probably the worst, unless you count petrol for the car.
do you think it is fair that petrol prices are so high because us smaller nations are subsidising the fuel costs in the bigger countries?
No high price is ever fair....
Are you a vengeful person?
no, and if you disagree I will get you! :)
If you could be any animal (apart from the human animal) what would you be and why?
A cat. They’re beautiful, funny, playful and sleep a lot. A cat never bothers about what happens around. They’re exactly what I’m not.
What was the last party you attended?
My football team had an end of season party type event at the weekend.
Watched Football, played Pool and Listened to music.
Do you liked Eggs? If which type are your favourite? (fried, scrambled.....or Duck eggs, hens) whatever.
I'm not fond of them. I seldom eat eggs, only hen eggs and only from big farms ( while normal people would prefer the more ''natural'' ones from peasants ). When I do I prefer boiled eggs with hard yolk and only with salt, pepper and hot mustard. On Easter it's the time when I eat such eggs but painted in different colours.
Are you bored by this thread?
In short no :)
Are you?
Not really. I just run out of things to ask that make sense.
So on that note.
What would win in a fight. A horse sized Duck or 100 Duck sized Horses? Explain your workings please. :D
Alliances have mor chances so I think it's the latter.
Do you wear ties?
No. Back when I got out of college I thought I would like to have a job where a tie is needed. I have never had a job which has a strict dress-code so I only own 2 ties which I never wear :s (of course it is stupid anyway to wear a suit/tie in a country which is as hot as ours)
Do you have to wear formal clothes to work?
I used to, I worked for the local council offices and required smart dress.
Recent years being a Gardener I dont need such things.
Have you got one TV programme which you just cannot miss and must watch it every time?
lol, usually its the football on weekends (used to be F1 too)
how about you? same Q
I like a TV show (well it's not a show it's more of a monologue based on tomorrow's morning press) that starts on sunday-friday at 23.00. I use to fall asleep listerning to the guy, it's like I'm sleeping with him all the week. :p
Can't say I can't miss the programme. it's more like a sort of routine.....
Did you ever have a conflict at work?
You mean a dispute with a coworker, sure it's happened, but things tend to get sorted out in the end.
Have you ever eaten turtle?
No and I'll never will.
Have you ever eaten monkey brain?
Matter of fact I meant a dispute with the "big boss". That's the real thing.Quote:
You mean a dispute with a coworker
No and I never will. :p
What was the last funny thing you saw while walking down the street?
......
Well, life in the countryside is still funny here.....
When was the last time you attended a wedding?
Wow haven't been to a wedding for years, most of my friends are either already dead, erm married, or happily unmarried, and all of my cousins etc live in England and 12000 miles is a long way to go for a wedding.
If I invented a device that warned you when your tea/coffee was getting cold, would you buy one?
No. I answered too many of your questions to be entitled to get one for free.
When was the last time you attended a funeral?
About two months ago. To say goodbye to David McKinney (the author of the book on the Maserati 250F) who I vaguely knew.
On the inventions front: what recent invention do you consider has really made a significant improvement to your life?
Diapers.
Where have you spent your last holiday*
Nepal - but it was not completely a holiday either
where would you like to spend your next holiday?
It's imposible to have a holiday but nobody can stop me to keep on dreaming of Barcelona, Paris and Viena,
Do you ever dream with eyes open?
