I’ve been tagged – 8 random things about me!
May 19, 2007 8 Comments
Junior Docspot had tagged me – I’m very pleased, it’s always good to find that people read you. The game goes like this – you post 8 random things about yourself and tag 8 fellow bloggers to reveal 8 random things about themselves
So now – 8 random things about me:
- I have a pet python called Fluff
- I occasionally get broody, which worries me as I wonder if it makes me less of a man. I was very relieved when one of my soon-to-be-married male friends said he was looking forward to having children.
- I am tone deaf and can only hear 3 notes ‘high’, ‘medium’ and ‘low. My appreciation of classical music is somewhat impaired by this.
- I have a BMI of 38 and would probably have gastric banding if I could afford it.
- I used to be in the Socialist Workers Party but have let my membership lapse as I don’t think anyone wants a revolution apart from me.
- I can’t drive a car (yet) but am having lessons.
- I didn’t leave the UK until I was 18 years old. Part of the reason to emigrate is that I was the only child at school who never went on holiday, this is proving to myself that I can now choose to go abroad.
- I secretly wish I was working more hours, under the ‘old’ system.
And I’m tagging – The Singing Librarian, Teuchter, Aphra Behn, Dr Ed, Boy Revealed, Reed, and Solnushka

Oooh. You piglet. Now I have to be witty eight times over.
Aphra.
I see your eight – and raise you mine.
(Must learn how to do some of the mroe techy trackback and linking stuff)
Oh, I don’t think I’ve ever been tagged before! I suppose I ought to play along, oughtn’t I? Hmm, is oughtn’t a word?
I’m slightly disturbed by your no. 8!

Right. I don’t know why the automatic pinging thing hasn’t worked but there you go.
8 random things as ordered.
I didn’t fly till I was 18. I spent the whole second half of the plane journey worrying that they were going to charge me for the food I’d just eaten.

Done. Spent the weekend working or lying flat on my back whinging, so only done this morning, but done.
I can’t drive either. I’m not even having lessons. I think I am resigning myself to be Excess Baggage for the rest of my life.
After 8 months of blogging I finally get to somewhere where I have enough bandwidth to actually browse the internet and I find you have linked to my blog. Thanks! I had not idea anyone other than my mother was reading. Have been browsing through your postings and my imminent return to the NHS and UK in Feb becomes suddenly less appealing…
