Thank you MishMash for tagging me in this meme.
This meme originated from Lauren of The Real Housewife of Suffolk County
ANORAK – Do you have a sad side?
Yes, very much so. I am an emotional person. I love a good ‘weepy’ film. Sometimes a sad song, or even an advert on T.V can start me off crying! Usually I’m sad for other people. If I know someone has been hurt or treated badly, this upsets me.
BODY – What physical attribute would you most like to change?
I would love to be taller. I’m only 5’3″ and I have really short legs – I have terrible trouble finding trousers to fit me.
CELEBRITY – Which one would you most like to date, and why?
I love Tim Minchin. I like men who make me laugh, and he’s very easy on the eye!
DEBUT – Tell us about your first ever blog post. What made you start blogging?
I am new to blogging. I did start a blog a couple of years ago, but I was so busy with the kids, I had no time to post anything! They’re all in school now, so I started a blog in September, in order to keep my mind active and to build my self – confidence.
FUNNY – Who’s making you laugh?
My kids make me laugh all the time. The things they come out with are hilarious – especially my youngest, if she’s not on stage when she is older, I’ll be very surprised!
GRAND – If we gave you one right now, what would you spend it on?
Driving lessons. I would love to be able to drive, but with only one wage coming in, we just can’t afford for me to learn at the minute.
HOLIDAY – What’s your favourite destination?
I have to say France. I love it there.
IRRITATE – What’s your most annoying habit?
I have to sleep with my feet sticking out of the duvet. My hubby wraps his feet up in the duvet, but I pull mine out.
JOKER – What’s your favourite joke (one that makes you laugh every time you hear it)?
A man goes into a seafood restaurant – one of those ones where they have their own tank, you pick your food whilst it’s alive, then they kill it and cook it for you. This man really wanted a squid, but the only squid that was left in the tank was green, and had a really big hairy lip. “I’ll have that one please” says the man. “Ok”, replies the waiter, “Gervais!! Gervais!” A French chef appears, with a meat cleaver. He’s just about to kill the squid, when he sees a little tear run down the squid’s face. “It’s no use” says Gervais. “I just can’t kill the squid”.
“No problem” says the waiter. “Hans!!” At this point an enormous German waiter comes out from the kitchen with a rolling pin. “Sir” the waiter says “this is Hans, our dishwasher. Hans! Kill the squid!” Hans lifts up the rolling pin. Just as he is about to kill the squid, he sees the squid cringe and start to cry. “I am sorry” says Hans, “but I cannot kill ze squid”. “well sir”, says the waiter ” it just goes to show …….
That Hans that do dishes can feel soft as Gervais, with mild green, hairy lip squid”
Badum tish!

My wedding day. I was so happy, I could have burst! I’d love to relive it again.

When I was 15-16, I used to work in a bowling alley. I was ‘Bolar Bear’, I used to dress up as a bear and entertain the children at their birthday parties!
VOCAL – Who is your favourite artist?
I love Adele, her voice is beautiful.
Work – What is your dream job, and are you doing it now?
I would absolutely love to own my own cafe. I would have big comfy sofas and armchairs in it, like the ones in ‘Friends’ and I’d serve fancy coffees and baguettes and cupcakes. I am not doing this now, I am a stay at home mum.

I broke my elbow in primary school, playing football on the yard.

A giraffe! I’d be well tall then!
