Ah if only it were true

It's been a retro, cheesy kinda nightshift....

I wasn't talking to you! Facebook can be shit. It depends what you use it for, or what your motives your 'friends' have for using it. Personally I find deleting or ignoring annoying people allows me to enjoy following people I give a shit about. Anyway, I don't get out much

God forbid we should have a bit of light-hearted fun!

WTF?! The Granary Bar, no less - an old haunt of my teenage years.

Okay, it's the latest thing doing the rounds on FB but it's also interesting and sometimes eye-opening. So let's have 7 facts that people may or may not know about you. I've just posted mine and they were... 1. My lucky charm is a wooden leprechaun called Gilbert. I won him playing Pin the tail on the donkey at Paul Rylance's birthday party when we were 5. He lives in my jewellery box (Gilbert, not Paul) but has been with me to every exam and interview I've ever had and has never let me down. 2. I had 4 imaginary friends as a child. One was a dog and one was Paul McCartney. 3. When I grew up I wanted to be a gypsy. Not a Gypsy Weddings one, but one that wears long skirts and hoopy earrings and lives in a proper gypsy caravan so I can go where I want, when I want. 4. I never wanted to be a nurse as I couldn't stand the sight of blood. Turns out I'm okay when it belongs to other people and not me. What I really wanted to be was a journalist/writer. I still write now, but mainly for myself and always when I go on mad adventures. 5. I have an obsession with the colour purple. I realise this is not a revelation to anyone that even vaguely knows me. 6. I've told my brother that he was adopted for many, many years. And that we're not really sure that his birthday is July 8th - that was just the day we picked him up from the orphanage. Mwahahahaaa... 7. I have a huge, mad, amazing family - son, parents, brother, grandparents, aunties, uncles and cousins. We're a force of nature and no matter what has happened in life they're amazing, and we know that together we can, and have faced anything and everything.

I'm waiting for pixies to stop meddling with the universe so I can see things a bit more clearly..

Watching The Undateables and loving that the Tourettes girl word of choice to tic to is "Thundercats"

Sounds like that would be handy for work actually. Oh and can I have your tarka dhal recipe please?

Salmon with asparagus and sugar snaps for tea tonight. Lah-di-dah and that.

They'll be saying that Chocolate Orange doesn't count as one of your 5-a-day next! (I've just found one from Christmas that I'd forgotten I had )

I've fixed the quoted one for you too.

Bloody hell, that's scary. If it was quiet what did you hear? Or was it just an instinct thing? And yeah, landed on my left hip/arse mainly. I've got floating stairs so my arm went through the gap. Pretty colours going on today, mainly purple.

Slipped down my wooden stairs yesterday after cleaning them. Feel like I've been hit by a bus this morning. Housework is officially bad for you

Ahh, I do amuse myself

Touché awaaaaayyyyyy!!

Touché

He told everyone on here that and it was a bare-faced lie And no, I'm shitting perfectly normally, thanks

I REALLY hope you're talking to Gemmill and not me

Forgot to reply to this. I should detest Brand as he's full of the swaggering arrogance that I hate but I really have a soft spot for him. At least he's doing his homework, gives a shit and is trying to so something to change things.

It's freezing, I'm tired, but I went to the gym after work this morning despite REALLY not wanting to and discovered I've lost 4lb this week. Oh and I got paid 2 days early. Was tempted to buy a bacon sarnie to celebrate but resisted

Class wasn't it? Possibly the best gig I've ever been to.

Would you boys like to borrow a couple of proper handbags to hit each other with?

You were spectacularly broken tbf
