A meme that I think originated from Facebook, just a list of 25 random facts about myself!
Enjoy!
1. I always wear odd socks. Life’s too short to waste time pairing them up. I have far too many other important things to be doing.
2. I have been on TV once, BBC One’s daytime programme ‘City Hospital’, alongside Heather Mills.
3. Growing up I had a tortoise called ‘Fred.’ One day he got bored with life at our house and went AWOL. We found Fred day’s later, half a mile up the road outside the local newsagents.
4. I am obsessed with even numbers. All volume controls etc have to be set on an even number, apart from, oddly enough, my laptop, which I like to keep at 75.
5. I absolutely hate nuts and won’t touch them with a barge pole!
6. I watch the Disney Channel probably more than any other.
7. My A Level sociology coursework was judged as one of the top 25 in the country back in 2000. I won a dictionary of sociology, surprise surprise, as a prize.
8. The most famous person I have ever met is Belinda Lang (think 2.4 Children).
9. I collect model police cars. I currently have 7.
10. My Mum is learning to play the oboe, at 50-something. It’s never too late to learn.
11. I eat a lot of pic ‘n mix. I’m on a first name basis with most of the staff in our local sweet shop! That’s actually quite embarrassing!
12. My mobile phone is pink!
13. I’m a big fan of ‘Stitch’ (from Lilo and Stitch). I’m building a shrine to him with various bits and bobs from the Disney Store.
14. If I was given a choice between a box of Heroes and a box of Celebrations, the Heroes would win every time.
15. I’m currently working my way through the entire series of London’s Burning, well the box sets that are available, and I’m really appreciating the humour second time round. I was far too young when it was originally shown on ITV1.
16. My favourite piece of clothing is a fleece I got from Fat Face in a sale way back in 1998. It’s still going to this day and I know when it finally becomes no longer wearable I will be devastated.
17. I always go to sleep at night in front of the TV. I know, I know, very bad sleep hygiene!
18. My blood group is ‘A Positive’.
19. I am right handed.
20. In the future I’d love to have a dog. A black Labrador called ‘Colin’.
21. I am a very determined individual. Once I’ve put my mind to something, I do it!
22. When I was eleven I fell off a ski lift in Austria and knocked myself out. A blessing in disguise – I got carried off the mountain by the hottest ski instructor there was!
23. I have very blue eyes.
24. I have watched ER from the very first episode (I was naughty and stayed awake, hidden under the covers with the TV volume down low – it was a school night!) and am very sad to see it finishing at the end of this season.
25. When I ‘grow up’ I want to live in a folly.
That was actually a lot of fun!
