I love all types of seafood.
What drinks do you like?
non-veg
have you tried indian food??
Sure have, Indian Restaurant just up the road!
You never have eaten barbequed prawns marinated in chilli sauce.
I have.
You have low ambitions?
All my ambitions have been achieved, retired at 45 and travelled the world.
Have you ever been outside the UK?
Yes.
Have you travelled in the Asia-Pacific region?
Yes
Have you travelled in the Arctic/
No, but I'm hoping to cruise to Iceland and Greenland sometime.
Which is your most interesting travel destination?
Amersfoort Holland (my place of birth)
Have you been there?
Not sure about Amersfoort though it rings a bell. I have friends in Amstelveen, is it close by? I love the canals of Friesland, had a fabulous holiday there about 10 years ago in a boat.
Have you been to many other European countries?
A few, England, Germany, Belgium, Sweden, Denmark, Austria.
Have you been to South America?
For a short time, Uruguay, Argentina, a couple of days in Rio.
Do you think it's immoral to fly and contribute to climate change?
No, if you're suggesting Jet exhaust fumes pollute the atmosphere.
Do you feel nuclear energy is the way to go?
Yes, I think on balance it is the cleanest form of energy; I was referring more to the carbon dioxide released into the upper atmosphere by jet engines, thus depleting the ozone layer rather quickly and contributing to weird weather worldwide.
Is Australia going to run out of water?
At the moment yes because of the ineptitude of our extremely shortsighted and weak politicians, both Federal and State. All they need to do is harness the enormous downpours in Tropical Northern Australia and all our water problems in the Southern States can be solved. The pollies have talked and talked for years about the water problem but not implemented what needed to be done. Presently our 2nd largest river, the Darling is dry, and our largest river, the Murray will stop flowing in March!
Do you believe people will live on other planets in the distant future/
It's a possibility, though not one I relish much. However if we can't even get the political will to move some water from north to south Australia, I don't see how we can colonise toxic dustbowls like Mars and Venus.
Will your street be affected when the sea level rises by a metre?
Nope...my town is very deep inland.
what will you do if you meet a good fairy?
ask her what she's been doing for the past centuries letting so many people suffer
If your town is deep inland, it could still be affected by floods if it is low lying - is it low lying?
No, I live fairly high above sea-level.
Do you believe what horoscopes tell you?
Never,the predictions, only the character assessment; it fails only 1% of time in my experience. Look at your friends and see when their birthdays are - bet they cluster in certain sunsigns.
How do you account for great differences in character in one family?
