It's blogging girl, but not as we know it...

I've stolen this from The Queen of Staving off... who in turn stole it from someone else but it seems as good a way as any to keep you entertained until I can get my shit together with witty stories from San Luis Obisbpo and the likes...

1. My uncle once: led a double life, like a soap cliché.

2. Never in my life: will I vote Tory.

3. When I was five: I looked like one of The Children of the Damned.

4. High school was: non-existent. I went to a senior school. It's since been closed down.

5. I will never forget: that I'm a Kirkby Girl. Unless I get Alzheimer's in which case I'm hoping I believe I'm Jackie Onassis.

6. Once I met: Batman. I won't say which incarnation.

7. There’s this girl I know: who would relish the chance to go to a Royal Garden Party.

8. Once, at a bar: I saw Samuel L Jackson.

9. By noon, I’m usually: Drinking tea, surfing the net, avoiding work.

10. Last night: a DJ saved my life.11. If only I had: been a bit shorter I could have had Bridget Fonda's role in Scandal.

12. Next time I go to church: I hope it's in Rome.

13. What worries me most: is something horrible happening to my kids.

14. When I turn my head left I see: a fantastic map of the world that was used daily by a shipping company.

15. When I turn my head right I see: the magic cupboard. It contains everything you need.

16. You know I’m lying when: I fill in stuff like this. Or do you?

17. What I miss most about the Eighties is: My rakish figure.

18. If I were a character in Shakespeare I’d be: Yorick. Who cares?

19. By this time next year: I'll have that rakish figure back.

20. A better name for me would be: I have all the nom de plumes I could wish for.

21. I have a hard time understanding: Golf. And all it stands for.

22. If I ever go back to school, I’ll: be a grade A student.

23. You know I like you if: I ask questions. I'm interested.

24. If I ever won an award, the first person I would thank would be: Certainly not God.

25. Take my advice, never: get your teeth whitened.

26. My ideal breakfast is: The Guardian, earl grey tea, croissants.

27. A song I love but do not have is: "Ain't Nobody" by Chaka Khan.

28. If you visit my hometown, I suggest you: Go to the Everyman Bistro.

29. Why won’t people: be nicer to each other.

30. If you spend a night at my house: I hope you like earl grey tea.

31. I’d stop my wedding for: a cup of earl grey.

32. The world could do without: Cancer.

33. I’d rather lick the belly of a cockroach than: Vote Tory.

34. My favourite blonde(s) is/are: me…

35. Paper clips are more useful than: tetra packs.

36. If I do anything well it’s: have a laugh.

37. I usually cry: at the beginning of It's a Wonderful Life.

38. My advice to my child/nephew/niece: would be to do it all.

39. And by the way: I tried to say I'd be there.

Oh, she said it was okay to steal it. And so did the person she stole it from. So, feel free. And let me know what you think.

Coming soon...


Does anyone care? Has anyone missed me? What's been happening while I was away?
Well she's still blogging. He's started blogging and James Corden has made a twat out of himself by slagging off Hollyoaks and a job he had eight whole years ago. Get over yourself.
But more on that...and my tales from LA, Las Vegas and San Francisco over the weekend.
It's good to be back.
