1. Despite being made to mime in my primary school choir, I sang for a couple of years in my local church choir.
2. I had my nose pierced for a couple of years in my early twenties but had to take it out for work reasons. I still have my ears, my belly and my tongue pierced though.
3. My degree is in English Literature but I also studied modules in Psychology and Greek Mythology.
4. I am a bit like Joey from freinds when it comes to food - I am terrible at sharing.
5. My hair has been every colour under the sun, red, blue, blonde, black . . . but I haven't seen its natural colour for well over 10 years now.
6. I love to travel and have so many places I still want to see. Top of the list at the moment is doing the Trans-Siberian through Russia.
7. I love having cosy feet and like to have a pair of slippers in every room of the house so I never have to hunt for them.
8. My favourite Christmas film of all time is Miracle on 34th Street - we watched it every year when I was growing up and I can't wait to introduce my boys to it.
9. I always have the TV on an odd number for volume. It drives my sister crazy (she is all about the evens) but I have to have it on an odd.
10. If I won the lottery tomorrow, I would put everything into storage and go travelling for a year with my boys. I would love to show them the world, and why not now?
11. I love a cheesy chick flick and my favourite movie is 10 things I hate about you.
12. I never wear my socks in pairs (unless it is a complete accident). Life is too short to waste time pairing up socks.
13. I don't have a driving licence despite hundreds of lessons and several tests*
14. My favourite colour is red.
15. I had both my boys in the same hospital that I was born in.
16. I have only ever ridden a horse once and that was on a cattle ranch in the Australian outback.
17. I love cheese in every form, especially cheesecake.
18. Before my buggy obsession started, it was all about the heels and I have several bookcases full of shoes in my house.
19. I am incredibly messy - If there are ever photos of inside my house on this blog then I probably tidied up especially for them.
20. When I was younger, my mum used to take me to musicals as a birthday treat and I still have a huge love for them.
So there we have it, Me in 20 facts. If you fancy joining in then let me know!
*More than 5, less than 8 - some people should just not be on the road and I am clearly one of them!

Those are lovely random facts - the Trans-Siberian sounds like that would be an amazing adventure - fingers crossed you win the lottery!
ReplyDeleteThat's it, I can no longer speak to you. I have MAJOR odd number issues when it comes to volume. The car, the sound system, the TV.... all even! Odd is just wrong.
ReplyDeleteAnd I like your hair brown in that picture with the tiger. It suits you. x
Wow! Can't believe how much you've travelled- very jealous!
ReplyDeleteA great post, a wonderful way of capturing you. I love random.... but do prefer to fall on the side of evens.... apart from 13 and that's always a lucky number.
We are very similar in the respects of travelling- my dream would be to go travelling with my girls. Unfortunately Mr E isn't as massive fan as me, he likes to go on holiday but travelling isn't really is thing! And I adore cheesecake too! x
ReplyDeleteCheesecake is amazing. I also cant drive either and its not for want of trying.
ReplyDeleteI like number 12!
ReplyDeleteI've done the trans-siberean from Moscow to Beijing stopping off in Mongolia for a week (it was part of a bigger trip - we took the train from Hastings to Hong Kong!)
ReplyDeleteAs for the telly - even numbers only!!!
Ha! I passed my driving test on my 5th or 6th time. I don't even remember anymore. I have a bit of a sock thing too. I don't wear odd socks but I wear them which ever way they come out of the wash - the right way round or inside out ... I don't adjust them. I'm a bit of a wanderer too. Despite the fact we 're coming to live back in the UK, I can't say that it'll be forever. Forever in one place really scares me :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely facts, its always fun to read some things about the mum that is blogging from time to time :)
ReplyDeletex

ReplyDeleteI can't believe you stroked a tiger!! x
