Never in the history of memes has one so difficult or complicated been pointed in my direction but always up for a challenge and a bit of nosey-parkeriness I am armed with 12 facts, 12 answers for BlueBirdSunshine and Mum Of One, and my very own 12 questions.
My dirty dozen
- I have one dog called Misty Moo who was once top of the pile but has been gradually nudged done a few pegs with the arrival of small people. She does still get space on the sofa though so life ain't all bad.
- I have a date with two lovely twittery folks in a weeks time and I am super excited. Mostly because it is a lunch date so I can be a lady who lunches :)
- There are three small people vying for my attention constantly so it is a marvel that any blogging ever gets done. Be greatful people.
- I have size four feet. Sometimes 3 1/2. Small. It's a wonder I can balance on them.
- In my head I have a fantasy five star lifestyle that one day will come true
- I have picked the six winning euro millions numbers for tonights winning draw (see point 5)
- Seven sleeps till my lunch date.
- I have only eight nails worthy of a manicure for my lunch next saurday.
- I have nine books on my bedside table all screaming read me and I can't choose.
- My little Princess can count in tens. Genius child.
- 'Eleven' only ever rhymes with 'heaven' in kids songs.
- Twelve pounds to loose before Britmums and the going is tough.
- Favourite book? - I loved Time Travellers Wife by Audrey Niffenegger but Tracey Chevalier's Girl With The Pearl Earring tops the list.
- First famous crush? *hides behind cushion and whispers* David Essex.
- Worst film ever watched? I watched The History of Violence on holiday last week. That was up there.
- Red or white? Red.
- Chicken or fish? Chick chick chick chick chicken.
- Still or sparkling? Sparkles are a girls best friend.
- Favourite post written by you? Crikey, er, this one about the perfect family afternoon on the beach.
- Favourite post read in the last week? Even more crikey-ish. This one from Flossing The Cat.
- The blog you think we should ALL be following? Motherventing. Awesomeness of epic proportions. Laughs all the way even through the tears.
- Favourite song? Tom's Diner by Suzanne Vega
- Your best joke? Knock Knock. Who's there? Whoo. Whoo Who? Don't get over excited, it's only a joke.
- Mahahaha…..you are done! Tease!
In answer to Blue Bird Sunshine
- What’s your favourite cheese? Boursin - garlicy goodness on a cracker.
- Where in Europe would you go, or have you been lucky enough to have been, on a romantic weekend getaway? Before children there was Dublin and Amsterdam both of which were pretty darn marvellous and I'd go back in a heartbeat.
- Do you have a beauty regime, if so what is it? Depends what you call a regime really. Does a quick wave of a wipe and smear of moisturiser count?
- What song would you do at karaoke? I have never ever done karaoke and nor will I. Ever. Believe me, it is for the best.
- Name something you dread doing. Any form of housework.
- Post your favourite photo, of anything, from any time. You are joking right? A favourite picture? All levels of crikeyness!
- If you suddenly had an extra hour in the day today, what would you do with it? Take more photos.
- What’s your favourite family tradition? Sleeping. We do it very well in our family and we all like it. A lot.
- Do you believe in ghosts or spirits? Not first hand experience but I have had a couple of close encounters which leave me suspiciously convinced.
- If you could choose anyone at all to write a guest post on your blog, who would it be? It would have to be a woman, with a sense of humour of which there are so many to choose from. Jenny Eclair based on this quote, "If I was unemployed I would spend my dole money on a cleaner." Woman who understands me.
- What are your top three girls and top three boys names? Do you have any idea how many baby name books I read to come up with just 2 boys names? And you want my three favourite? All I can say is that my favourite names are celtic sounding but spelt in a sensible way!
- Tell me one thing you really want to do before the year is over. Lose a stone.
