Yes, but they make me quite unpopular.

Not really. I don't find it disgusting or anything but I'd rather have beans and toast separately.

Do you like spaghetti?

No, dislike all Italian food.

Do you ever fall asleep sitting in a chair?

Not generally. I used to fall asleep sometimes while on the train.

Same question

No, never been able to do this.

What is the oldest appliance in your place of residence?

Probably a radio that my neighbor gave me though I didn't need it. He was an old person who still used ancient things from half a century ago.

Do you use wireless headphones/earphones to talk on the phone/listen to music etc? If so, which brand/manufacturer?

Yes. The brand is Bose. I only use it for music and when I need to connect it to my TV if I'm watching films and series during unsociable hours.

Same question.

Not yet. I'll probably buy some eventually, but for now neither my computer nor my phone require them. My wired headphones still work perfectly well.

Same question

I use Panasonic RP-HT225 wired headphones with my computers and TV set. Absolute bargain at around £13.

Do you mainly use a desktop computer or a laptop (or neither)?

90% of the time I use my upstairs laptop. Have a downstairs desktop though which still gets some use.

How many letters a week come through your postbox? (not sure of the terminology: postbox? mailbox? It's built into the front door over here.)

Letterbox, and maybe 2 or 3 which are financial statements.

My postman stressed me out a few days ago by tapping on my door to say hello. He said he’d been off with a sprained ankle for two months and neighbours had been concerned when there was a replacement person. I had no idea and felt like a fool for not knowing. Do people really stalk their posties?

I'd say 2 or 3, too. I stubbornly choose paper statements etc rather than digital statements because I'd hate to have to print them if I ever need hard copies for any reason. Plus, the bank's and other companies' very persistent encouragement to go "paperless" makes me feel I shouldn't give in to their persistence. They say they are caring about the environment but I sense they have other motives such as cutting costs. How sneaky! I hate their hypocrisy.

I don't think I've ever seen my postman before. I don't know what he looks like. In fact, could it be a postwoman? I thought there's no acquaintanceship between a postman and the people who live in his delivery area.

How much do you spend on average for groceries per week?

I do know my postman superficially because I have to sign for parcels occasionally. Also my mother berated him once and I was horrified. He doesn’t seem to hate me for it so that’s good.

I get all my banking statements online because we have to pay a fee for each paper one. The ones I receive are usually information on my investments (e.g., voting for people in new positions, false promises about the economy, etc.), and an update now and then. Those aren’t related to the bank.

Groceries: Maybe $150-$200 week, not including pet food x 4 animals.
