I got tagged... thanks a bunch Julian ;o))) OK, so here is the 16 things you don't know about me.
I was christened on the Island of Islay in the Scottish Hebrides at Kilchoman church... I was possibly the last person to be christened there.
I am allergic to raw egg white, so I can’t lick the beaters when I make a cake... I can eat it when its cooked tho’.
I can play piano and I taught my brother how to play guitar when I was 10 years old.
I have traveled through both the Suez and Panama Canals.
I am a hopeless romantic.
I only wear Issey Miyake.
I love books, shoes, lingerie, coloured pencils and good whisky. (but not necessarily in that order, or all at the same time.)
My porn name is “Smoky Manning”
(i.e. the name of my first pet and the street name of my first house).
I don’t get hangovers.
(Yes I do drink enough to warrant one, but I’ve never had one... ask anyone who knows me... I bounce out of bed like someone in a milk commercial... its the truth.)
I can read a map... even if it is upside down.
I think coffee and other people’s hot chips smell better than they taste.
I’ve been banned from watching “Out of Africa” cos I always cry.
I consider myself enormously fortunate to have traveled to over 50 countries.
I have dual citizenship. (British & Australian)
I think the telephone and airplanes are the most wonderful inventions and will never cease to marvel at how they work.
I am deeply troubled that we live in a world where we are making such amazing advances in molecular science, technology, genetics, mirco engineering, and yet we still go to war, subjugate women and have such depressingly high levels of poverty, malnutrition and infant mortality.
