Chookiehen Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Some very interesting answers.... As for me... 1 I wish I was a better cook. 2 I have ridiculously large feet for a girl (size 8!) and often find myself wishing for little dainty feet, instead of the banana boats I got! 3 I'm currently selling my lives belongings on ebay to buy ES a greenhouse! 4 When Mr C spends time away on business, I often have chip butties with mayo for tea. 5 The afore mentioned chip butties with mayo are often washed down with Mr C's decent red wine..... 6 I won medals for figure skating in my younger days. 7 Gavin Hastings (Scottish rugby legend) once stood on my almost mended broken toe, and broke it again. 8 I once appeared on 'Reporting Scotland' waving cheerleaders pompoms at a Murrayfield Racers game. 9 I dropped mushrooms in a tomato and mozzarella sauce down Esther Rantzens dress at a function where I was head waitress. 10 Someone stole a urinal from the pub I ran one Saturday night, and the doormen didn't notice them walking out with it. 11 I was in labour for nearly 3 days with DS2 before they whipped him out by c/section. 12 The same anesthetist looked after me for each of my 3 c/sections. 13 I am obsessive about song words, and insist that people either sing a song correctly, or keep their mouths shut! 14 My father taught me to never be reliant on a man, and to be able to do things by myself. 15 I can't stand people who talk about others behind their backs. 16 My first pet was a blue budgie called Terry, who had a tumour in his tummy and looked like he was pregnant. 17 I cried on my 21st birthday twice - once when my older brother told me he loved me, and once when my mother pointed out that my grannies budgie had actually died in 1976, and hadn't flown out the window. 18 I fainted when the love of my teenage life kissed me for the first time. 19 I can't walk in anything smaller than a 3 inch heel. 20 I strongly believe that a girl can never have too many shoes or handbags. 21 I'm a slutty housewife, and believe that life is too short to clean obsessively. 22 My favourite colour is pink. 23 I fancy David Seaman 24 I am actually chookiehen 25 I'm not going to be hounded away from the forum by a petty minded , and am back for good. I feel SOOOO much better now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looney Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Wow you're all so interesting! Nice to see you Chester! I'll give this a go though not sure if I can think of 25 things..... 1. I am content, often happy. 2. I love my friends but ought to call them more often 3. I have lots of freckles in the summer. I was told I would grow out of them but no sign of that happening 4. I try to be honest with people 5. I can not stand liars 6. I have strange ways of remembering pin numbers and codes 7. I was once employed to dress as a chicken and hand out flyers 8. I have done the 'walk of shame' on more than one occasion 9. I enjoyed my youth, rather too much at times....to the point that I dread my boy growing up in case he is anything like I was 10. I dread the prospect of having to reverse park 11. I can't stand mosquitos / gnats 12. I try to live without regrets...let's just say I've learnt plenty of lessons 13. I have a degree in French and Spanish 14. I can't take criticism from my Mum 15. I once told some people exactly what I thought of their work ethic in my leaving speech! 16. I used to pierce my own ears and re-pierced my nose. 17. I don't take myself very seriously to the point that I am first to ridicule myself. 18. I used to spend hours digging up worms to feed to my neighbours chickens (I was about 5!) 19. I love living in the East, flat landscape and big skies make me feel at home and relaxed. 20. I love reading the labels on shampoo/conditioner/moisturiser/cosmetic bottles 21. I have realistic expectations of people so get cross when they are too quick to judge others 22. I have two completely different styles of handwriting 23. My Gran thinks we are related to Guy Fawkes 24. Not many things in my house or wardrobe match 25. I haven't been to the cinema for about 7 years Phew! Done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
