Hi Lil!

>What would you do if you...?
> 1 met your former or present English teacher at a party?

Nothing in special. Perhaps I would just say hello to him/her.

> 2 found a lot of extra money in your bank account?

Oh boy... I would ask about the money origin to the cashiers and I
would do what it needed to be done to clear things up.

> 3 got a present from your partner that you really didn't like?

Well, here some further illustration ;)

To buy things is a hassle for me.  I'm afraid I'm too picky and also
thrifty. It takes me a lot of time to buy e.g. a pair of shoes for
myself. By the way I need desperately a new pair. Imagine buying
thinks for others!  I think it's better to invest money on thinks we
really need, for instance, to replace and fix the LCD screen of our
camera, that my wife broke yesterday ;) LOL

Seriously, here in my country, traditional gifts for events such as
baptisms, graduation parties or marriage, have been replaced by
'envelope showers'.  I mean, you just buy the congratulations cards
and put the money you want to give inside and problem solved! I wonder
if the same happens in other countries.

> 4 hit somebody's car in a car park?

Well, once I had a car, and I hit a taxi, or the taxi driver hit mine!
I think he hit mine but I had to pay!  Poor me! I don't like cars nor
motorbikes.

> 5 had to sing at a karaoke evening?

I would go away, escape!

> 6 were invited to a really good concert by somebody you didn't like?

Difficult, impossible!  A concert? Here? Are you kidding me? ;) LOL

> 7 saw your best friend's/partner's personal diary/e-mail open on a 
> table/computer?

I would do nothing!

Regards,

Pablo

P.S. Dear Pln, Thank you for all! Take care, my best wishes for you.
I'm really glad you are among us.
