I managed to prove the personel wrong in my local discount store, as they had not given me enough money back ^^
Considering I am really bad at maths its a wonder I even spotted the error. They were really grumpy about it tho, I might change stores.

Coca cola or pepsi?

Do not really like all the additives they put in the stuff so I rarely drink any kind of cola but between the two I'd pick Coca Cola.

Have you ever tried to pot plant cuttings, put the cuttings in a rooting medium and was it successful/did they grew into healthy plants?

No I guess not. I did grow some herbs in small pots a few years back, but that's as far as I went with gardening, and plants. I know it's pretty relaxing and one should try to be around nature as much as possible so maybe some time in the future, I'll give it a go again.

What natural environment or site do you find the most beautiful and appealing? eg. Niagra Falls etc.

Yes, but about 924 miles (1490 kilometers) from the city I was born in within this same country.


How much surface area does the country you were born in have, and how much of it is arable?

The Netherlands/Holland is a small country and has about 41.528 km² of surface. A lot of it is delta area and has quite fertile land due to sediments brought by rivers over thousands of years but I'm not sure how to describe how much of it is arable. Well, we live with a little over 16.5 million people here and thus a lot of landmass is taken by roads, cities, villages, what have you.... rivers, forests, nature.... A guess, 30-40% is arable.

Do you think you could be a good farmer (small) and would you enjoy such 'job'?

I suppose so, depends on the type of farm we're talking about. Most farms are not like the ones on tv or cartoons or story books. They usually leave out the bad smells and wastage and all the really icky things. :P But I did visit a vineyard once, and it was pretty nice.


What do you do to "get away from it all" and to just relax and forget about your troubles?

I never get to vacation anywhere these days, but vacationing to Atlanta was fun.

What foreign countries, if any, have you been to?

I don't think Ireland counts, because I am a citizen there. Anyway, I've been to Spain and France.

Do you like Fallout 3?
