    Just got one actually.

    Are you paid a fair wage ?

    I think fair is the best that could be said about it.

    If you were paid 5 times as much from tomorrow for doing the very same job would you feel a bit odd about it?

    Not in the slightest

    Do you like the work you do?

    Was the leaving cert critical to your current job?

    It was, especially Irish.

    All the men are I'd say..

    Do you ever get up during the night and eat a bar of chocolate and only remember it when you see the wrapper?

    I know there was a song that Judge from Wanderley Wagon sang...but that is all. Look left, look right, look left again ..or look right and left and right again? anyway... don't get hit by anything usually works.

    Do you get annoyed by cyclists who sail through red lights?

    I get annoyed by cyclists full stop.

    I never like overtaking on national roads where you can't see a good stretch ahead. I'm always half expecting a car to appear out of nowhere.


    Do you have an emergency plan in place for a major world catastrophe?

    Nah, no point in living in that type of fear. I did date an American girl once, her father turned the basement into a nuclear shelter full of salt and steaks and guns. Thought it was cool and extreme.

    Bottled water or tap water at home?

    Tap water through a Brita filter for tea/coffee. Bottled sparkling water to drink.

    Is there something that you like the taste of but can"t eat because it looks gross?

    I used to be that way with rice pudding but all sorted now.

    Per capita the avg Irish person above 15 years of age drinks the equivalent of 41 litres of vodka or 116 bottles of wine or 445 pints of beer per person
    and that's not accounting for the people who don't drink.
    Are you doing your part?

    I would like to think I am with wine :)

    Have you tried that beer that's flavoured with tequila? (Bleurrrrgh!)

    I haven't. Some things are better left alone.

    If you could take a supplement that satisfied all dietary needs and hunger would you take it instead of cooking and eating?

    No, whatever about cooking I couldn't forgo eating.

    Do you eat out regularly?

    I don't believe I have.

    Do you ever read threads on here and it makes you realise just how little you know on a lot of subjects ?

    Absolutely.

    Is a little knowledge a bad thing?

    In one of my latest exams, there were 2 questions which overlapped to a large degree.

    Therefore when I answered the 2nd question, I referred to the first answer and basically said "see answer above" to some of it.

    Would you consider going back to college part time?

    I would if there wasn't any homework.

    Do you get cravings?

    Do you have a light?

    Does vaping instead of smoking make sense?

    I've never tried it. I suppose it does if you get your fix.

    How do you get your fix?

    It used to be ciggies, but I've quit them....I guess the odd ciggie is my fix. Thankfully there are no craving or wants to smoke full time again, so one on the very rare occasion is a treat.

    What was the last thing you fixed?
