I recently learned that there is such a thing as therapy llamas: http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/14/health/llama-pet-therapy-oregon-feat/. What do you think of this idea? Would petting friendly llamas make you feel better if you were in a hospital or nursing home? Would you share a "carrot kiss" them?
Llamas are famously ill tempered, finding friendly ones must be difficult. It's a great idea though. So many people have allergies to regular pets, but extremely few react to animals like Llamas. I would suggest that breeding therapy sloths is a far better idea. I'd prefer huggles to stroking a mutant donkey-camel.
Is it true that lack of sleep harms your brain, deteriorates the brain and can lead to memory loss?
It depends. If you're just staying awake a couple of hours later than normal, and not making a habit of it, then you'll be fine. If you're surviving on less than four hours sleep every night, then you've got a whole bunch of symptoms and long term problems coming your way. You know a google search would have answered this question far more in depth, more accurately and quicker than asking me.
What topics of conversation make you completely tune out?
Anything related to non-entities like the Kardashians, reality tv or the beiber. I can get into any other conversation, even model trains or 17th century brickworks.
Is there something that you’ve dreamed of doing for a long time? Why haven’t you done it?
I've always wanted to get in my car and just drive where-ever the wind takes me, for like six months. It would take quite a bit more money than I have, and I'd have to have a small support team sorting out visas etc
How many countries have you visited & which countries would you like to visit and why ?
Er six I thin (not including countries where I haven't left the airport/port). I'd like to go to all of them eventually. I bet there aren't many people who have actually been to every country, that's a pretty cool achievement to aim for.
