It does. Admitted to hospital - here anyway - means they get you a bed and keep you in. The amount of times we've been down in A&E for hours to finally hear "You've been admitted: you're going up to the ward." Different world. Yeah, everyone's been to hospital probably, but the question refers to any time you have had to stay there overnight or longer.

Ditto.

Oh. I guess I probably stayed overnight for the asthma attack considering how extreme it was. But I can't say for sure.

1. Have you ever been admitted to hospital?

A ton of times unfortunately - by there age of 3 I'd had 4 major operations. Since then everything's been mostly fine except for pyelonephritis about 7 times (each one a 2-3 day hospital stay).

2. Do you own or rent your home?

Own. We live in a bogan outer suburb of Adelaide, so houses are comparatively cheap here.

3. Have you ever been a member of a political party?

No.

4. What was your first ever mobile/cell phone?

I had an ancient brick-sized one in about 1994 - don't remember the model. At the time I was living in a teepee on a cow paddock, and needed to take calls as I was playing gigs in the local towns, but didn't have any electricity. I used to recharge it at my neighbour's house.

5. What sports team(s) do you support?

I was born missing the sports gene, however growing up I used to feign interest in various Aussie rules teams to fit in - I'm not sure if people here know what Australian Rules Football is though?

6. Do you own a gun?

No, illegal here anyway.

7. How many working remote controls are in your house?

Two.

8. How well do/did you get along with your parents?

Very well.

9.What was your first job?

Selling programs at a fair.

10. What's your favourite Shakespeare play?

I remember digging Othello when I read it, but I can't remember much of it.

11. What's your favourite planet, and why?

Saturn is cool to look at through a telescope, so I'll go with that - Earth I only get to see a tiny piece of at a time.

12. Do you dress up for Halloween and if so what as?

I never have, halloween didn't exist here when I was growing up, kids have just started getting into it over the last few years.
