    Do you spend more in relationships?

    Less, because some of the costs are shared (or should be).

    What size is your living room tv?

    I don't know. It's only the men watching TV (something broadcasting internet stuff?) and after I move out of here, Father Dragon promised the Dragons they'd get one of his spare TVs (he "collects" free TVs and repairs them).

    Do you ever get your car cleaned?

    Not as often as I probably should. I just can't seem to find time/motivation for it (and I hate the sound of a vacuum cleaner, can't stand it). I do drive through the carwash every few months.

    Saving money

    Right now mostly spending money (about a month to go I estimate) as I'm moving soon (now painting etc). But I'm saving as much as possible to pay for my sons' education, the oldest will probably start uni in 2 years and the youngest in 5. Especially the years when they're both in uni will be...

    Are you a good saver?

    I think it's in part in your nature. My oldest spends not nearly as much money as my youngest, and I spend less than my brother. I would say my sons are raised approx. the same. In part, it may also be how used you are to getting things. When younger, I nearly never got anything I wanted - not...

    Do you think that it is wrong to keep birds in cages?

    Euhm, that's kinda the point, no? They fly outside and return in the evening (or stay inside if the weather doesn't suit them).

    Are you a good saver?

    I think I'm pretty good at it. My only weakness are my sons, I give them almost everything they ask for. (Not everything, lol, but too much even so, probably). For myself, I rarely buy anything new, only when I really need it. I will have one pair of shoes to wear to work, 2 pairs of pants (so I...

    Do you eat fries?

    Not often. We used to eat them only when visiting family on the other side of the country (getting some take-away for everyone, hosts included, instead of inconveniencing them with additional mouths to feed). Since a few years we have an airfryer at home and it is frequently used but certainly...

    Do you think that it is wrong to keep birds in cages?

    When I was younger, my grandfather had magpies; during the day, they were free to fly wherever they pleased (and often returned with clothespins etc. :D they are notorious thieves), in the evening, they slept in their cage. Where I live, chicken pens are covered from the top also to prevent...

    Scanning for chip on lost pets?

    I don't have a scanner and know only of vets having them. I heard the police would have them too (probably in bigger cities perhaps, can't imagine it's standard equipment for them).

    Pet Sitting

    I will be getting a dog and my grandma will dogsit for 2d a week when I'm in the office. As it will be regularly, I suppose the dog will get used to it soon enough. When my grandma will die (she's older), I won't take another dog until I retire. I would have postponed until retirement had my...

    What's the best Chrismas gift you've opened?

    In 2019 someone gifted me a named star (online thing). I was delighted. Until... I found out I wasn't the only one and it was kinda something to "reel in the next notch in his bedpost". He and I never got to that point, but... At the time of receiving, I felt very special.

    With Lyrics or Without

    No. I'm Belgian. :D "Classical music" is mostly instrumental stuff here.

    Your intro song

    A Dutch song no one here probably knows nor understands. :) Title is "same as in English" so no need for translation. Porselein - Yasmine

    With Lyrics or Without

    Mostly music with lyrics, but for a while I had the car radio almost exclusively on a station with classical (instrumental) music, which I liked also.
