Tagged again....

In a desperate bid to encourage me to blog something, Mme PVC Sue over at knittiotherapy has tagged us with this....

The Rules:

Each player answers the questions about themselves. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5-6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answer.

1. What I was doing 10 years ago:
Trying to decide whether to get out of arts admin and do something that paid me a living wage, or not. I think I was temping in the meanwhile.

2. What 5 things are on on my to-do list for today (not in any particular order):


  1. Cook: make carrot adn dill soup and ginger, lime and lemonade.

  2. Make the bed.

  3. Get cat litter.

  4. Knit outside whilst drinking iced ginger, lime and lemonade with mint sprigs in it.

  5. Blog.

3. Snacks I enjoy:

Kettle chips (enjoy is not really the word, devour selfishly is more like it), scottish raspberries, cheese. Though not all together. Mind you I could make a meal out of all three.....

4. Things I would do if I was a billionaire:

Have a huge party somewhere hot and sunny for all my family and friends. Pay off all their debts and then retire to a swimming pool filled with luxury yarn.

5. Places I have lived:

Felling, Washington, Leeds, Kendal, Washington again (the original Washington, UK version). But home is where the heart is.

I tag: Flossie, BadAmy, Erqsome, Bioengiknitter and AlicePalace.

Scummie can add hers too...

And here it is!

1. What I was doing 10 years ago:
Desperately trying to work out how to get a new job, move house and leave my then boyfriend....

2. What 5 things are on on my to-do list for today (not in any particular order):

Well, looking at the time now (early evening), it's what WAS and is on my list...

  1. Get to Spence's smallholding to pick fresh rhubarb
  2. Go for a run
  3. Blanch and freeze rhubarb
  4. Sow more spinach and lettuce seeds in my boxes
  5. Bake a carrot cake (to use up carrots)
  6. Put a bottle of white wine in fridge and open it a bit later ;)
  7. Sit down and listen to Radio 4 version of 'Major of Casterbridge' with DJ Mikey
  8. Do some yoga

3. Snacks I enjoy:

Kettle chips (I'd agree on that), crackers and cheese, toast and butter.

4. Things I would do if I was a billionaire:

Move to the middle of no-where in Cornwall, by the sea. Start to write properly (money = time!). Travel. Help friends and family out and give a good proportion to charity.

5. Places I have lived:

Nutfield in Surrey, Birmingham, Norwich, York, Leeds and Cornwall... can make myself happy anywhere, but have to say the latter is my current favourite- love living in the country.

We forgot....

MARMITE!

Marmite is not a snack, It is a food essential. It's place in the daily culinary adventure is a given, and it does not therefor count as snack treats in my book :)

A fantastic thanks for the tag... it actually made me get off my duff and post. Now, back to my Marmite slathered buttery toasts. Mmmmmm.....
