Reading any books at the moment?

Yeah, not really into it but more than 2/3's of the way through so I'll tough it out.

Ever wonder how some books become bestsellers?

Do you judge books by their covers

I'd say a lot of them become popular by getting a good review and then lots of people just buy them so that they can claim/be seen to be reading them.

Ever get into a fight with a child?

Yes, Tom deserves an award for many things, including contribution to this thread.

Last gig/concert you were at?

Comic Book Guy

RHCP in Croke park about 3 years ago.

Probably Christie Moore in the local sports centre.

Kinda. We have some wild cats in the garden. I wouldn't know how to pick them up or handle them though.

Ever smoke on a bus?

I haven't had one in years. I quite like the pancakes even though they leave a horrible floury feeling on the teeth.

Is there anyone you regret losing touch with?

Aint Eazy Being Cheezy

One or two, but times & people change.

Any holidays planned?

Menas

Yeah, going to the sun in October. Vienna in December.

Would you get a feed from a chippy on the way home from a night out?

Baraics Pollox

I'm more a drunken tea and toast fan myself.

Marmalade on toast, yay or nay?

Hugo Stiglitz

Pizza and chips. Maybe some chicken goujons too. I am a fat bastard. :cool:

Have you smooched anyone this weekend?

chrysagon

nah....does dog count?

was james mclean right to turn back on british anthem?

Menas

No, it was disrespectful. No one was asking him to swear allegiance to the queen, but he works for an english club and lives in england. He should treat their anthem with the respect that he would like them to treat our anthem.
He is a role model for many english and irish kids and this was not a good example to set for them.

Have I rabbited on a bit too much about this?!

chrysagon

no...you stated your opinion well

would a All Ireland soccer team work?

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

Don't we have an Irish soccer team?


Are planning weddings worth the hassle

In my mind, yeah. A huge wedding wouldn't be for me whatsoever.

If someone you loved who was sick or injured begged you to kill them, would you?

If there was no chance of recovery and they were only going to get worse even with the best available treatments (e.g. terminal illness like cancer or end stage MS) I'd consider it.


did you celebrate your last birthday?

Did the weekend fly bye?

Hugo Stiglitz

scrimshanker wrote: »

I took two days off work and ate loads. Does that count?!

Do you own more than one suit?

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

I don't own any suits.

Hugo Stiglitz

Menas wrote: »

No.

Do you have any fetishes?

None that I am willing to admit to on a public forum!

Ever been a victim of a scam?

No. Was offered that deal by a foreigner for my old car on car zone where he lets on to send more money than car is worth to cover the transport of it in exchange for you sending him back the balance. Think it happened to me couple of times so they must be catching someone out.

What's the last spontaneous thing you did?

NicoleW85

Hung out the washing to dry. It's nearly 8pm. That's pretty spontaneous
Also risky as hell...

Do you have a 'traditional' Sunday dinner every week or does anything go?

Depends if my wife is working or not. If it's me and kids we keep it simple!

What's your favourite roast dinner?

NicoleW85

Ah has to be my father in laws roast spuds & Yorkshire puds (the proper ones, not aunt Bessie's type), roast chicken and hubby's mash & gravy. Veg on the side to make it look good haha.

Does talking about food automatically make you hungry?
