No. If anything I got into heavier stuff as I grow older..I found tonnes of obscure or lesser known bands which I had missed out in my teens (as it wasn't easy or cheap to listen to my kind of music back then). I have had these same thoughts too that most people seem to like mellow stuff now but I keep going back to the early to mid 80s thrash/heavy metal that I truly love.

It's weird though that my 3 yr old son is also listening to some of that stuff now along with Little Baby Bum videos :s

Any particular band(s) that you want to see live but hasn't been possible?

schmenke
13th April 2016, 17:05
Led Zeppelin

In all my years I have never had the opportunity to see them live, and it looks like I never will :( .

What was the last music concert you attended?

Storm
13th April 2016, 17:12
Testament & Carcass a month or so ago. But I know that feeling..I would have loved to see Led Zep/Deep Purple/Motorhead/Dio/Rush/Judas Priest someday....at least JP and Rush is a possibility but they are now almost at the end of their touring careers :uhoh:

same question?

Rudy Tamasz

Tourandot (sp.?) opera. Great music including the Nessun Dorma tune also covered by Manowar and Jeff Beck.

Yes. One of my closest friends has believed in me and built my confidence and lead me to starting to do more things.

I have applied to start marshalling at motorsport. Have you got any hobbies that are maybe out of the ordinary?

schmenke

I can't think of anything, other than I've been a member of a local Scotch whisky club that my friend started up a couple of years ago. I guess that's not really out of the ordinary :mark: .

No. I've known women in the military that were tough as nails and would beat down many a guy. And were still feminine too. Nothing wrong with a badass woman, regardless of the sport.


What do you think would be a good overall judge of fitness these days?

Rudy Tamasz
18th April 2016, 06:38
Either a long and hard military campaign, or a tough civilian crisis (nothing to eat, nothing to heat your house with etc.).

Axl Rose is going to sub for Brian Johnson at AC/DC. Who do you think would do a better job? Methinks Jimmy Barnes. It would also be funny if Rod Stewart stopped being a crooner for a while, revisited his modsy days and used his raspy voice properly.

I've always enjoyed AC/DC, and have had the pleasure of seeing them live, but I can't help but think it's time for them to finally pack it in.
Rod Stewart...? No. Besides, his voice has deteriorated in the last few years, to the point where he can no longer hold a note.

Are you a tidy person, or disorganized?

Storm
18th April 2016, 15:41
I like things to be in their proper place...but I also tend to spread stuff around when working on something, then I try to put all the stuff back though. Thesedays the house is just a random collection of toys and stuff lying around. Entropy! :s

btw the Accept singer would do a great job for ac/dc too :)

How often do you clean your house?

steveaki13
18th April 2016, 20:44
Reguarly. I dont like an untidy house or home. Except the bedroom funnily enough. Everything gets dumped there.

Do you like to have an actual clean house, or do you believe a little bit of dirt/grim is good for the immune system?

Most of dishes are based on lamb and I dislike it -which is kinda weird since I'm macedonian. Also not a fan of boiled eggs but because I fast I love to eat them at midnight with much pepper and mustard. When I come back from church I also like to eat telemea sheep cheese with fresh green onion. The best dish is the desert "cozonac"" and""pasca" but tradition is to have them handmade and it require time and skill. Most of us buy them. BTW, I painted the eggs red and blue as a real Steaua fan. :laugh:

Same q.

Ps. Lol I just found a bourgogne bottle :p

Yes I have. A family story says that while travelling on the Scotland-London sleeper, Mum heard a thump and put the light on to find I was sitting on the floor hugging my teddy bear and not in the top bunk. Never as an adult, but I have fallen onto the bed and woken up some hours later - cold and sober.

Do you think Kenya did the right thing burning 100 tonne of poached ivory?

Storm
1st May 2016, 23:35
I haven't read that story but I'd rather burn the people who chopped the ivory off the elephants to begin with.

Read any interesting book lately?

anfield5
2nd May 2016, 05:44
Not really. Only books I have time to read are degree related, such as Operations Management - Process and Supply Chains and Organisational Behaviour - a Modern Perspective. Interesting is not a word I would use to describe them :)

re the ivory burning. Agree Storm much better to see the ivory attached to the elephant and the rhino horn on a rhino's nose. But burning it made it impossible to steel and on sell.

It May and we still havn't had any real rain, summer is dragging on and on. Does this mean that the seasons are changing, or is global warming a bigger issue than some people think?

9th May 2016, 17:26
The season has finished for us (Exeter City) and we didn't do great, managed 14th in League 2. Started badly, did worse in the middle of the season and then picked up near the end when it looked like we might make the playoffs. Ultimately the last 5 or so games were so bad that we slipped out of contention.
My other team (Toronto Maple Leafs) finished bottom of the league in the NHL. Given the time difference I didn't watch quite so many games this season!

Same q?

I have never ridden a motorcycle of any kind actually. Its weird. I have always loved racing cars and thought I would love to drive at racing speeds, and yet motorbikes scare me a bit. Especially on the roads.

Do you think driving tests should become more detailed and tougher to pass in order to improve driving standards?

MrJan
16th May 2016, 11:17
I don't think it would help, overall awareness needs to be improved though. I think that a renewal system (after say 10 years) would be good though. The standard of driving in the UK is on average very poor.

He was a very likable teacher who made learning the subject extremely fun, even demonstrating wacky experiments in class that would be very entertaining. He even had his own 1/2 hour show on one of the local radio channels at the time.

Indeed. Bit of a cock up all round really. I saw it on the big screen but they cut away pretty quickly, amazed they allowed the race to start (it happened on the formation lap). Another fairly big shunt happened in the aftermath, you'll notice the course car in the middle of the pack at 2:30, he came out in the middle of the field and several people stamped on the brakes, which caused one car to crash into another at full throttle going up the hill. The following race was really entertaining too, much better than staying at home and watching the F1 :D

The romanian revolution from 1989. It was like people finally dared to rise against a tyranic regime.
However it's more likely it was a coup d'etat with the script written at Kremlin and directed a la Hollywwod. :p

What's the worst job you ever had?

Rudy Tamasz
20th May 2016, 12:21
The one that didn't pay. I was supposed to manage the content of the Website for an IT company. Neither they nor I had a clear idea of what exactly that content should be and we were growing unhappy with each other. They wouldn't paymbe the agreed amount until later, which meant I effectively got paid the same amount but for a longer period of time. One day I got fed up and around lunchtime stood from my desk, said I had a fever and left only to come back and pick my belongings a couple weeks later.

Your best job?

gadjo_dilo
20th May 2016, 19:50
I had only 3 jobs, all of them with ups and downs.

First was in a factory. I felt great there because the coworkers were nice, funny and very friendly. But it was far away from home and I had plenty to work
The second was in a foreign trade company. It was in the neighbourhood and I had almost nothing to do - it was a total boredom. The coworkers were awful, probably most of them were members of the communist secret service. Not friendly at all and very suspicious.
My current job is good as social position ( most of the people fear this institution ) and is decently paid ( according to our standards ) but I can't find a sense in my work, it's much to work, generally under time pressure and the results are mostly useless in my opinion. The coworkers are also annoying. They're very proud, bosses asskissing, egoistic, ready to walk on corpses to reach their targets, not loyal and not caring of anybody but themselves.
So I honestly don't know which one was the worst.

What job would you like to have?

24th May 2016, 02:01
I enjoyed my time as a graphic designer, the company I worked for was not the best. So freelancing as a graphic designer would be good. It would be great to have the responsibility of fixing and running F1 and turning it back into a sport again.

Its raining to the point of flooding here. Have you ever dealt with floods?

Rudy Tamasz
31st May 2016, 09:37
The climate around here has changed over the last few years and we started having torrential rains in summer. Those were quite rare but very spectacular. The drainage did not have enough capacity to cope with it. As a result, after some brief but powerful rains we would have floods in downtown with sunken cars and basements full of water. I even heard stories of people riding water bikes in the streets. Now the city authorities have improved the drainage so we no longer have that problem.

Have you ever got sunburnt in a funny way?

MrJan
31st May 2016, 12:41
In April I managed to get sunburnt while skiing (the lovely google tan) but while it was completely cloudy and overcast. I had a stupidly red face and had to put up with people saying "there's been no sun". The worst bit about it was that I'd joked with someone else in the morning because he'd put suncream on!

Have you ever seen a tornado/twister?

schmenke
31st May 2016, 15:14
Not really, no. A couple of years ago I saw one beginning to form. It was kind of eerie as it was a small "tail" beginning to descend from the bottom of a layer of very dark, dense cloud. As quickly as it started it dissipated.

Continuing on the meteorological theme... Have you ever experienced damaging hail?

steveaki13
31st May 2016, 23:17
No. Never had that level of hail. Only marble sized stuff which hurts when it hits you.

Do you look back at the past and ever think "wow" I cant believe where life has taken you?

Rudy Tamasz

Yep. When I was a kid the biggest phobia of our generation was to be drafted to the Soviet army and sent to fight in Afghanistan. The army was withdrawn from there before I hit the draft age. Yet I got to work in Afghanistan many years after on a commercial basis and that was a huge experience.

gadjo_dilo
1st June 2016, 09:17
Lol. When I was your age I didn`t bother either. But now, esp. since I have to take care of my old mum I`m really scared. In Absurdistan the social assistance is almost nule, the health system is in collapse and generally speaking people don`t bother to help. Not even those who are paid for this. The last year experience when I broke my fingers and became somehow helpless also made me ask myself what if I were really old and had to stay in bed without anybody coming to open my door? Well, I mean I'm not sad about losing some capacities or beauty ( that`s easy cos I never had it ) but about being helpless and a burden in a country that have not respect for old people.

It`s child`s day in Absurdistan. Is this day celebrated in your country?

Rudy Tamasz
1st June 2016, 09:39
Yes. In fact, I have organized a Muppet theater performance for children and it is ongoing right now. I heard some complaints from the artists and sponsors about the logistics, which is my fault as I am not a good logistician. Children seem to be enjoying it, though.

Plenty of those. Right now at the bottom of the crisis businesses hand their loyalty cards at the moment of the first purchase. I recently bought my wife nice earrings at the occasion of our 10th anniversary and immediately got a card from the jewellry store. My wife saw it and thought I had a mistress. She thinks it takes a few purchases to get a card, and she wasn't getting anything...

No wonder. Now that I know you a bit I would have thought the same. :p

Not as many as you. I have cards for Cora and Billa hypermarkets, 2 cards for shops of cosmetics and beauty products and 3 for drugstores. Already difficult to handle.....

Do you have a fav store of clothes that you use to follow?

Rudy Tamasz
2nd June 2016, 09:43
It's not about me having mistresses, honey. I don't have any for the record. ;) It's about women thinking I have a mistress or mistresses. It a nice little sample of women's way of thinking. When they see a guy getting emotional, or inward, or buying stuff, or anything else out of normal routine, they immediately think, oh, he's got a mistress! Not necessarily. Women would be much better off caring about their men, not guarding them.

On the fav store, yes. It's Peek & Cloppenberg. My normal shopping tactic is go to an expensive store (P&C is one) and look for discounts. Then you get great stuff at the price of the average stuff.

Should Britain face reality and give up Gibraltar and the Falklands which are getting increasingly unsustainable

steveaki13
5th June 2016, 09:56
Only trouble with that is, that Britain surely has a duty to the people that live there who class themselves as "British" in broad terms. If we give them up do we say they have to move or is it that they have to become Spanish speakers and put up with Argentina & Spain force ably moving them on? Its not as simple as just saying they are miles away lets not bother.
If there was nothing much on them and no inhabitants then yes I would absolutely agree.

On the flip side, do you think it is silly how much focus Spain & Argentina put on trying to get small pieces of land back? I mean why would any country bother with the land mass we are talking about.

gadjo_dilo
6th June 2016, 21:28
Less silly than how much UK needed to have and keep such small spots. Concern about British citizens is a silly excuse. Then all the colonies should have stayed colonies. Population may be relocated or may stay and continue to speak their language ( right in the middle of Romania there are 2 counties whose inhabitants refuse to speak Romanian, matter of fact I don't think they even know it :p. ).
These small spots may have strategical, military or economic importance. For instance, the Serpent Island, which previously Romania has been divested by the USSR and who lately has been an apple of discord in relations between Romania and the Ukraine. It's a rock of 0,17 square km. with no inhabitants but the seabed nearby is a substantial deposit of natural gases and oil and it's a strategical point near the Danube Delta.

What's the right altitude we should have at work? To behave the way you don't bother the coworkers or to think that everybody should feel comfortable and tolerate things that really bother you ? ( example: is it OK to eat garlic smelling food in an office? Some may like it and they have to eat anyway, so if it smells it's OK, we'll open the window even if there are -10 °C outside. Or I like garlic but if I eat it it will smell like hell and it's in bad taste to force the rest of people to bear it )?

I don't see why the UK would need or want to throw the residents of the Falklands into the the den of a country less prosperous, less democratic and culturally alien? The Falklenders are as British it gets yet have the GDP per capita higher than that in the UK. Giving up on them would be an act of stupidity.

Speaking of business cultures, the American culture is the only one I am familiar with from the inside. What I heard of the German, French or Belarusian corporate cultures does not sound very attractive to me.

Romania lost because they don't know how to play, matter of fact they didn't play at all, the Romanians were arrogant and thought that Albania can't ever win against us, they have a losers mentality, etc.

Now that the favourite of the tournament is out, who do you think that will win? :p

Northren Ireland (sic! The spelling is correct!)

Who do you think was/is the greatest football player of all times?

Maradona. Loved him. He also had personality.

Have you ever worn the shirt of a famous football team?

I have worn the shirts of England (I have 6 shirts), West Ham, Chelmsford City, Barcelona and of course my own team. Marconi Athletic.....

I am one of these :p

Do you think football is in a bad place? Cheating, diving and bad sportsmanship

You're looking great, Steve. :p

The only thing I dislike about it is playing just for the result. And too many buses parked on the pitch. :p

Will you ever dare to go to a stadium dressed in a stupid outfit? (like those fans at Euro dressed as knights or vikings )

steveaki13
22nd June 2016, 21:30
How do you know which one is me? :p

No. If i went to the stadium I would be too embarrassed.

Do you like thunderstorms? We are due one today

Of course I don't know. :angel:
But since all the guys in that picture are looking great I said it knowing I can't be wrong. :laugh:

I hate thunderstorms and I'm afraid of them.


Is there a picture when you're not smiling?

steveaki13
22nd June 2016, 21:55
I dont think so. I try and be happy and smiley.

I think thats a good trait.

Are you sad the group stage of the Euros is over? Or do you enjoy the knock out games ahead?

gadjo_dilo
22nd June 2016, 22:16
I hoped that this competition would bring me some much needed joy but I kinda lost interest. The forum is also dead and I miss the happy times of the world cup. Of course the knock out phase is more exciting but our TV channel will broadcast only 3 games from 8. Even that link where I saw a few games online doesn't work anymore. I'm a bit disappointed about the final table.

Is there any player that impressed you until now?

What have you done today? Its being tunderstorms here. So staying inside is the best thing.

Been to a reception, taken kids to an exhibition, put up with their whims. It's very hot here, above 30C.

Talking about temperatures it's 37C here for more than a week. It's really unbearable because of humidity. I'm sweating like a disgusting pig.

Summer or winter?

steveaki13
25th June 2016, 20:58
Spring :p I guess summer but i do not like the heat. I like snow of winter too.

Do you enjoy the changing seasons or would you like to live somewhere tropical with a set temperature all year?

Rudy Tamasz
26th June 2016, 06:29
I love changing seasons. On the other hand, I heard stories from Ecuador how weather is the same 365 days a year and every day it starts raining exactly at noon. That must be depressing.

What's your favorite weather?

Warm but not hot. And dry. May is a good month from this point of view although kinda rainy.

When is the best time for a holiday?

Rudy Tamasz
26th June 2016, 09:15
Whenever you feel tired and ready to go on holiday. My best vacation which ended up in the acquaintance with my wife was totally spontaneous. I felt tired, found a good offer for tours to Turkey, and off I went.

Fav drink?

Nah, just scared in my childhood and never liked them ever since.

Do you have a dislike for any particular type of people?

But yeah people who constantly talk about themselves or post photos daily on facebook etc about their activities /trips...

Been anywhere interesting recently?

gadjo_dilo

No and I'm sad about this cos I would have liked to post photos on facebook on daily basis. :laugh: :devil:

Do you like to buy furniture?

D-Type
29th June 2016, 21:48
Surprisingly I do. I like seeking out something that is"just right" eg our dining table is circular that extends to an oval AND it is smaller than standard which suits our small room. I even enjoy putting flat pack furniture together - and modifying it when necessary

Do you enjoy assembling flat packs?

gadjo_dilo

Do you think it's fair to a dog to keep it indoors in a suburban home?

Storm
2nd July 2016, 17:43
No. That's the reason I gave my 4 month old puppy to a friend (I have a flat on the 7th floor)...who promptly moved from her flat to a home with a yard :eek:
Then went and adopted 2 more "stray" dogs to give him company!!!

Have you ever lived in a village?

gadjo_dilo

Do you have anything that you currently want to buy? i.e a bigger purchase. New car, TV, house etc.....

Shakespeare would have said "get thee to a nunnery" :p
Well, don't know how a monestery of monks is called.......

Matter of fact I have to renovate the house. It's not about the money but the fact I have to deal with Romanian workers. I simply don't have the tough nerves to deal with them and having a sick person in the house make this even worse.

What should I do if I had three weeks of holiday but I can't leave the city?

Rudy Tamasz
5th July 2016, 09:46
Try to find harmony in your inner world, read good books and watch good movies, explore new places in your hometown. Make new friends as well.

Some breezy feelgood music you would recommend?

Greek music that make you think of holiday.

Do you or your family do the cleaning of the house or do you pay someone to do it?

Rudy Tamasz
5th July 2016, 12:42
We clean it ourselves (my wife and I, that is, children do exactly the opposite). At the same time we are getting closer to the idea of hiring somebody to do it, preferably in our absence.

Do you cook or you buy readily available food?

gadjo_dilo
5th July 2016, 13:25
I hate to cook and I'm a lousy cook anyway. Also don't have time to spend in the kitchen. I do only simple things and thanks god I'm the only one who eat it. I also use to buy pizza once a week, or ready made meatballs. These end up in eating a very unhealthy food.

Do you have a fav show on tv?
