    Nothing. Slept in late (it's a holiday here) and ate breakfast late. We'll go have ice cream mid afternoon at a place that makes their own. For dinner grilled shrimp and corn on the cob are on the menu.

    How will you spend your next holiday?

    Sad question. I can't have a holiday although it's all that I want.

    Same Q

    Yes. Last year after breaking my foot. Found a new job which wasn't great, but then met a friend and started my own business. You never know what can happen.

    Do you watch a sports team live regularly?

    Not in New Plymouth. I dislike Rugby and there is not much else other than local league sports. When sky had proper coverage of the Premier league I watched Liverpool every weekend (although after this week's debacle prob glad we don't have that at the moment)

    Are you a passionate supporter of a sports club ie. did Liverpool's amazingly apathetic (read crap) effort against Stoke City bring you to tears - or similar feelings when your team do or don't perform?

    Weird since I am so far away from that location in every sense but yes, I do apparently support a "hateful" team.
    I also have other teams I keep an eye on - hoping they win something (cough...LFC being one )

    What's the furthest you have walked in one go?

    used to go tramping (hiking for you Americans), so I would guess about 25-30 km.

    Do you feel safe going out at night where you live?

    Absolutely and at any hour. No problems where I live. Though about twenty miles from my house (as the crow flies) that might not apply so much.

    Since we were talking about hiking, which would you prefer for a nice afternoon - hiking (there's an American joke about the old maid who went for a tramp in the woods), boating, picnicking or a quiet read under a tree?

    Now days the quiet read under a tree sounds good. Picnics are too much bother, I love sailing ships, but small boats don't quite measure up, and my ankles are too far gone to allow me to go tramping, or ecev brisk walking.

    DO you like spending time on your own, or do you need the company of others to be happy?

    I can spend a lot of time on my own absolutely no problem. Doesn't bother me at all. However company is nice.

    Do you go out drinking to a local bar/pub often?
