Cold... probably because I'm part-Norwegian .

On the subject of being part-Norwegian, what part of Norway you're originally from?

My grandmother lived in Skøyen, which is a neighbourhood of Oslo.

I no longer have any close relatives who live in Norway, because they all either died or moved away - but, I did go to my great-grandparents' graves once, which are in a cemetery not far from where they once lived.

Do you know any other languages?

Nope.

I know some French and Spanish from high school, but I'm certainly not fluent in either of them.

Favorite Christmas gift?

Ermm, it's hard to pick just one!

Maybe the Thomas the Tank Engine train set I got in 1994? That was what got me started on model railways (albeit not immediately: once I'd finished playing with that, I took a nine-year break from them before getting back into them in 2003 )

Did you watch a lot of Thomas the Tank Engine as a kid?

Yes, although it's been years since I've seen any .

Do you ever still buy any toys from it?
