  • Seven things for me too...

    Rules - blah, blah, blah, tag, tag etc - I laugh in the face of the rules.

    1. I play the tuba (though nowhere near as well as I did when I was 17!) - I chose it because I knew there wouldn't be many others, so I'd always get to be in everything and also so that people would give me lifts places :) It worked out pretty well.

    2. I'm an accountant - I did my ACA exams/training because I couldn't really think what else to do, but....

    .... 3..... really I'd like to be a singer - I probably could do this, but it would be hard to live a penniless operatic life after having a decent wage for so long - also, I probably wouldn't get any decent paying work without being better, but with the job I have at the moment, I don't really have the time to put into working at getting better..... Am also getting a bit old now.

    4. I like to bake things - would make an excellent 1950s housewife!

    5. I have terrible guilt about one time when I was about 9, when I accidentally left a hay net in the straw box at the riding school we used to spend our holidays at - I know it's utterly stupid now, but weirdly the guilt still remains...

    6. I don't think that i can get married, though I might quite like to, as I'm not sure I want to have children.

    7. I'm a bit tired now - I think I might go to bed :zz:

  • Handy tip

    If one is making lemon curd, and been cooking in mixing bowl over pan of boiling water, one must always take care when removing said bowl from pan, not to drip boiling water onto one's bare feet...

    You have been warned ;)

  • Happy Face

    I love all the real face avatars today - I'd like to join in, but am not sure I have a picture to hand...

    I'm actually not sure I have one at all :(

    Oh, hold on - actually I have one that used to be my Facebook profile picture - is a few years old though, and am dressed up silly...
    Does that count?

    EDIT: In other news - am going to have fish pie for tea.... Mmmmmm - tasty fish pie :P
