Does footie with my toddler count (if yes that was last evening :D )
I played a little badminton a few months ago. would like to play more though.
What's on the menu tonight?
I'm in charge of cooking so I'll probably starve. :devil:
What's on the menu tomorrow?
Hopefully something good at the end of a week full of dull food...but definitely beer before the Super South American Saturday ;)
Which cuisine is your favourite?
I'm a plain person who wasn't too much brought to the church so I'm not familiar with international cuisine. Besides, people in my country hardly afford to go to restaurants. Last but not least I'm a kinda difficult person when it comes to food - I don't eat much meat, never eat chicken or food that contains chicken or other ''flying'' creatures, or sea fruits, liver, kidneys, shells, brains, , etc. - so I can't experiment too much.
Loved my mother's food cooked in a sort of aromanian way.
What place in the world would be perfect for you to live in?
Perhaps somewhere close to mountains like Himalaya or Alps or Andes.
(gadjo: you are indeed a difficult person to have a meal with - especially for a foodie like me...but I probably could adapt easily to whatever food you like)
How many languages can you speak?
None apart from my mother language and a bit of aromanian dialect. I can write in English but I don't dare to speak because I think I have a terrible accent.
Did some russian in high school but I hated it and classes were dull so I don't know much. These days I regret this but there wasn't time anyway for foreign languages.
Do indians eat a lot of lentil? ( in tv series they always cook this :p )
(I'm not a too difficult person, I like food with vegetables but I'm a disaster in the kitchen. I'm not able to cook and I lack practice in this field.)
erm................ :erm: Storm. Can you answer this because I cannot.
Do Indians eat a lot of Lentil? :p
You could have guessed it stevie :p:
Yes we do..I don't know any Indian who does not love Daal (which is basically all pulses - lentils, gram etc). A day without daal is a sad day at home, except when I am cooking Italian food :love:
It is fairly easy to cook , so yoou should try it someday. It is basically a daily substitute for meat as it is protein rich.
What is the plan for the week-end (apart from the football) ?
I saw a old steam engine pull a special train along my local line this morning, now I am playing a new PS3 game "Grid Autosport"
Then football this evening.
Tomorrow it will be gardening and then more football and a traditional Sunday Roast
Will you be cheering anyone at Wimbledon tennis?
Simona Halep of course. If she reaches the final she'll become world's no.2. It's unlikely though. Wimbledon was always unfriendly with us.
Will you see tonight's matches with friends or home alone? ( for those who have family it means that I know women generally aren't interested so it would be like watching alone :p )
( lentil is not popular here, in the past we haven't such thing on the market. Some greek cousins brought us a bag but I didn't like it. Also I never heard someone here buying or cooking such thing)
^There is always a first time!
I am usually watching the footie alone (and getting nagged because of the amount of late nights I spend doing it :erm: ) but the missus is keen when it comes to the World Cup. Especially in the knock-outs as she loves the penalty/extra time drama :s
My sister is visiting tonight but she'll be asleep I think as the games kick-off pretty late here (2130 and 0130). Last saturday had a couple of friends over though. Might have some for the final too.
Do you like pre-planned goal celebrations?
I don't think I understand this Q. :rolleyes:
It means when a player scores do you like a dance celebration which the players have been practicing or do you like a celebration of on the spot joy. :D
I like them if Steaua scores :laugh:

Do you like to celebrate in the street your country's victory?
I might if we ever won anything. :(Quote:

Well I have watched every Cup properly since Italia '90. I do remember a wee bit of '86 too - mainly that Linekar is awesome (and England used to be a decent team) and also the fact that Maradona is God.
Luckily I have also seen the next God of football ever since he made his debut as a professional 10 yrs ago.
Do you watch any football live - I mean in the stadia?
Used to when I was very young and it was still safe to go to the stadium. I was probably the only girl in the stand. It was forbidden to come with alcoholic drinks and my brother and his friends used to hide small bottles in my bag.:p They were thoroughly checked but with me they were like welcome miss, nice to have you here. The only problem was the toilet cos guys used also the ladies room.
What player impressed you at this WC until now?
James Rodriguez without a doubt. He went to Monaco for big money and I can see why..Also Cuadrado (who has been linked with Barca and on this showing yes, he can well be the answer to Dani Alves)
Which player did you think would do well but hasn't?
Neymar and Messi without a doubt. I was expecting for some spectacular bends.
Have you ever done a military service?
(can I make sure we have a correct answer. Gadjo did you say Neymar and Messi with 4 goals each, have NOT impressed you? - Its OK if thats the case, I was just interested)Quote:

Did you ever win the lottery or money prize?
Yes, Messi and Neymar scored but I expected something a la Maradona in '86 ( not the hand-goal :p)
I won at 6/49 lottery but small amounts at the 3rd category.
Also used to gamble at Loto Pronosport ( pino would be surprised by my knowledge in Serie A and even B about 15 years ago). Once I had 13 results/13 but the money were insignificant cos there were many winners.
Have you ever worn earrings?
I've never worn earrings. Where I grew up the only males with earrings were gypsies - there's a reason that they wore them but I can't remember what it was.
What do you feel about tattoos - particularly on women?
I am not a fan of any tattoos for either Men or Women. I just dont like them or "get" them really. If people want them I have no problem with that.
How did the universe start?
On women I hate the bloody things, on men I hate the bloody things. I HATE THE BLOODY THINGS! :) chill
Do you have a tattoo? (don't be frightened)
erm.............. sorry Anfield I just beat you to it. ;)
The Big Bang (well the best explanation until we find a better or a deeper one)
tattoo? No. will never get one either although I do admire it sometimes when done tastefully
Do you like jewellery?
I suppose every woman does. :p Never been a fan of gold jewels apart from a platinum cross with small crystals that was a gift and hanged on my neck for years. These days I’m interested in accesories that even if they’re rather cheap look rather refined ( in my opinion of course ). And I confess that sometimes I fear I might look ridiculous.
I always wear a necklace or beads and earrings, sometimes ( esp during summer ) bracelets, never rings (cos I have ugly hands ). Never dared to wear a ring in the nose or a bracelet on my ankle. :p
Do you like shopping clothes?
You mean shopping for clothes? Not really. I only do it out of obvious necessity :mark: .
Do you wear a watch?
Only on summer and mostly as a bracelet cos never look at it. I wear it only when I remember it or when I want to look smart.
Do you wear a suit at work?
Not anymore, when I worked for the local Council offices, I had to wear a suit.
I hated it. I am a naturally scruffy and comfy person.
Do you listen to the radio? Or are you happy enough with TV.
listen to radio at work, not really at home though.
do radio announcers that talk too much really annoy you.
Not really, as I tend to listen to chat radio anyway.
I used to listen regularly to Radio 2, which has quite a lot of chatting. The only thing which bugged me was talking over song intro's or endings.
I now listen to sports radio or 5 Live which both have talk or 5 live Xtra which has all the cricket on it.
May have asked this before, but how did you find Motorsport Forums?
was with another site, that closed its' forums, so I looked for an alternative, and here I am.
Should the wish to be a politician preclude you from being one?
haha Probably. They say they are doing it for the people, but anyone who wants that stress and pressure must be slightly strange and power hungry. Which in turn makes them not ideal for being a politicianQuote:

Like the politicians, how would you screen the wannabee bullyboys from becoming policemen?
make them pass an i.q. test
what do you do to wind down at the end of a stressful day?
cry :laugh:
when will you go on holiday?
I went for 4 days to Goa at the start of June, but I am planning a longer trip to the north at the end of the year when it is colder.
Do you have a dark sky where you live (or is it like mine - filled with bloody lights)?
Is this a figure of style?:confused:
If yes and you talk about the sky during night then it's impossible to be really dark in the middle of a big city. However my hometown isn't lighted properly during night. I mean it's not like Las Vegas.
Being the prosaic dull employee I am: at the moment the sky is grey announcing a terrible.....storm.:p
UFO's? :eek:Quote:
(or is it like mine - filled with bloody lights)?
have you ever seen a UFO?
