Yeah I was a fan too. Had a metal Thunderbird 2. If you opened the bay door there was a small plastic Thunderbird 4 in there. I loved that toy. Also had a UFO SHADO interceptor and mobile unit, both of which fired plastic rockets.

Always wondered about that one: pilot would have had to have been a great shot, cos that was literally a one-shot deal!

Reruns of Twilight Zone, Batman, the Monkees

Wallet. Why would you think I'd carry a purse? You're weird, Trolls

Teacher or actor

1. What favourite TV show do you remember from your childhood/youth?

When I was 10 or so, my favourite TV shows were „Justice League Unlimited” and the other DCAU ones.
Shortly after my parents started watching „X-Files”, and I joined in.
And, boy, did that become my favourite show of all time.

2. Do you still own a wallet/purse, or if not, what do you carry your cards/cash/other items around in these days?



3. Has your political affiliation changed in say the last ten years? Or do you have any?

Not really.
Though when I was 12 I was much more radical.
Nowadays I don’t feel the need to debate fascists and religious people all the time, like I did.
I’m a rather leftist person, but with more centrist/technocrat views, though considering the polish standards I guess I’m a radical leftist around here.

4. What is your dream career, even if you have no chance ever of achieving it?

Well, a musical one. I wish I had a band that became popular enough so that I could make my living by making music.
When I was younger I wanted to be a comic book artist.

5. List four people (living or dead) who have been a real influence on your life (good or bad)

I don’t usually think in those categories, but I guess my first girlfriend (both good and bad), my father, The Beatles (as a unit) and Witold Gombrowicz (a polish writer active in the 20s-60s)

6. Wallpaper, paint or other?

Paint, I suppose. Though really it depends on the particular needs of the wall.

Top Cat (cartoon), Ready, Steady, Go (pop music show), The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (spy adventure)

2. Do you still own a wallet/purse, or if not, what do you carry your cards/cash/other items around in these days?

Can't improve on Plankton's answer:

3. Has your political affiliation changed in say the last ten years? Or do you have any?

Not changed so much as sharpened and changed focus since I started watching too much CNN

4. What is your dream career, even if you have no chance ever of achieving it?

I think being a travel writer must be so cool: mooching around different places, then writing something clever about them.

6. Wallpaper, paint or other?

Grew up with wallpaper in every room, but in my present circs it's impossible because it would get infested with insects. Plain painted walls are easiest on the eye, but I quite like one wall with a patterned wallpaper and 3 walls plain.

Probably the original Star Trek and Robin of Sherwood

2. Do you still own a wallet/purse, or if not, what do you carry your cards/cash/other items around in these days?

I haven't had a proper wallet for years. I've been using those credit card holder things the bank gives you. Only problem is they're not really meant for constant use and they come apart regularly.

3. Has your political affiliation changed in say the last ten years? Or do you have any?

I'm not politically motivated. I'm a card-carrying member of the "Can't We Just All Get Along" Party.

4. What is your dream career, even if you have no chance ever of achieving it?

To be a successful writer. And a rich one.

5. List four people (living or dead) who have been a real influence on your life (good or bad)

My mother, my Auntie Eileen, Michael Moorcock and Anne Rice.

6. Wallpaper, paint or other?

Paint. You can't drink wallpaper.
