Finally, I have written my list as I was ‘tagged’ by Renee Olson. So here it is …
1. I am one of seven children (not common these days).
2. My names means Friend(ly) and comes from Peter Pan.
3. I love spending time with my wonderful seven year old daughter.
4. I learned to type on a manual typewriter (that makes me feel old).
5. I am interested in anything medical and also the paranormal.
6. Three years ago, I fell off a horse, hit a tree with my head and broke my upper arm and because we were in a forest, I had to get back on the horse and ride to the nearest house to call for help. I’m lucky I didn’t break my neck. Until that point, I had never broken any bones and had never fallen off a horse before.
7. I love languages and accents.
8. I love all seafood and chilli and can cook a pretty good prawn chilli.
9. I’m a good proof reader and always spot errors (oh God, someone’s gonna spot a mistake in this now).
10. I hate clutter and I do all the painting and decorating at home.
11. I suffer with migraines.
12. I used to do British Amateur Gymnastics.
13. I seem to have green fingers but it’s probably just luck.
14. One of the dumbest things I’ve done when young - I skiid down a black run (which is the most difficult of all the ski runs in a resort) or should I say skiid down a quarter and slipped down the remainder on my backside - once you start to slip, you can’t stop as its very steep.
15. I once pushed my brother through a window (accidently) while playing ‘murder in the dark’. Oops. He was hiding behind a curtain and I pounced.
16. I can touchtype and plan the evening meal at the same time.
17. I agree with ‘if you want something done, do it yourself’.
18. I’m not good at asking for help.
19. I love reading and often would rather read than watch TV, especially as there doesn’t seem to be much on these days.
20. I hate having nothing to do and I fidget a lot.
21. I’m always smiling (except if I haven’t had enough sleep).
22. I’m one of those lucky people who never puts on weight, whatever I eat. My philosophy is simple: eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re full.
23. I can’t stand laziness, rudeness or disrespect.
24. I would love to get a dog but at the moment, even a gerbil is out of the question.
25. My biggest fear is that no-one will read my list!
Well, that was fun. Please leave me comments underneath.
