Hotwater bottle or Electric blanker or nothing?

I'd prefer the Electric Blanket but I can't justify the price of the electricity to run the fecker. So hot water bottle it is.

I'm good at grammar and English, so much so I have friends who gave me their Theses to correct before submission.

How about you?

You shouldn't capitalise "theses".

Yeah, I'm alright at it.

What book are you currently reading?

Apologies, it's a tip they give you when doing theses, to capitalise words that are important in a sentence, but you are correct.

Kev W wrote: »

None at the moment, I'm on the look out though.

Any suggestions?

NothingMan

I'm a fantasy nerd and the best ones i've read recently were Scott Lynch's Gentlemen Bastard trilogy. Very fun books.

NothingMan

How many books have you read this year?

I have no idea... At least 8 as I have read 2 trilogy's and 2 parts of an unfinished trilogy (There's so few standalone fantasy books). But not sure when I started them. I always have a book on the go and I read on the Luas and lunch every weekday so that's about 2 hours reading a day.

Would you like to write a book? If so, what kind?

NothingMan wrote: »

Do you believe in good dreams?

magic_murph

I believe dreams are our actual reality and what we believe to be life is just a dream state and in fact we are being controlled by a 10 year old kid playing a game similar to The sims only he plays with real people. Well to him we are not real but just pawns in his little game.
When we 'dream' that is our down time and a chance to live in the real reality.

Have you seen my feet?

Is Web Summit man Paddy Cosgrave an arsehole or a knob?

I'll always root around for the best date on bread or anything else.

About 98% of the time I will not eat it if it's gone past the expiry date.

Because the 6th commandment says so.

When people put a 'back in 5 minutes' sign in a shop...is it ever only 5 minutes?

Rarely.

Very random times I eat. Never regular. Work hours and sleep hour change too drastically for a regular eating pattern.

How many hours sleep do you (average) get a night?

I have my paternal Grandmother left but I don't have a relationship with her.

Sometimes I wish I was raised in one place. We had one big move as a child, and it's hard to feel like you belong. Then you grow up and move to another town! It gets tiresome to explain when someone asks you where you are from at times. Sometimes I think it must be really nice to be born and bred in one place .

Will you watch the Late Show later, or is that just sad ?!

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

Haha no I won't be watching it, while its not sad, it's um..... Not my cup of tea just yet!

Wake up, have a coffee and a Subway sandwich. Go to a race track and drive a few laps in a modified car, then go play a game of hockey, then watch something on TV (tv show, movie or hockey game) with a couple of beers and a kebab.


Anything close to what your "perfect" day might be like? :P

Menas

It has a few admirable elements!
