Apparently this means I have to do things. Like Miffy I am a little nervous - is there a password I have to learn? Secret handshake? Code?
Actually it seems I just have to inflict five random facts about myself on you. Which is quite handy as I had some things to blog which didn't really fit anywhere. They do now!
1. I really need a haircut. Haven't had it done for over a year and it really is just functioning as a baby swing now. I have a lovely hairdresser (if someone who can go a whole year without a haircut can be said to have a hairdresser) but it's just embarrassing going after all this time.... "so, what have you been up to since I saw you last?" - "oh, you know, had a baby, baby had major surgery. You?"
2. I also really need to get fit. The thing that has convinced me of this has nothing to do with clothes fitting, tiredness or any of that. It's that the 'glorias' in Ding-dong Merrily on High are defeating me. I swear I used to be able to do them in one breath.
3. I am the sixth of six children. I can tell where somebody comes in their family by their reaction when I tell them this. Eldests and middles say "I bet you were really spoilt" and fellow youngests give me looks of deep sympathy.
<Pause here for sister 2, who comments here sometimes, to arrive and say "you were really spoilt" :)>
4. I have two degrees in useless and/or obscure subjects.
5. Umm.... I should have saved "Jonny Baker's brother taught me French" for this shouldn't I?
