I have been tagged by the Jenny over at Mummy Mishaps for being a:
Right so this is the second time that I've been passed this and I ignored the first one from @TheMummyLife (sorry Laura) but was in the mood to act on this one from Jenny.
So the rules are that you need to :
– thank the person who tagged you – so thanks Jenny for my award
– list 7 things about yourself
– pass the award onto 3 other fellow lovely people and explain the rules
– Pass on the 10 questions that I have to answer at the end of this
Ok? Ok! So here goes.
1) I'm scared of the colour orange.
2) I hate New York.
3) I play the National Lottery every draw (in the hope of affording said holiday homes) and one of the lines of numbers I play are the 'Lost' numbers, from which I've won £10 from those six numbers 5 times.
4) I have traced my family tree back to the beginning of the 19th century and have over 300 members in it.
5) I teach in the primary school that I went to as a child.
6) I miss eating tuna, steak and Christmas day turkey sandwiches.
7) I'm really chuffed that hubby persuaded me to go onto twitter.
I am going to pass this award and meme onto:
@AlliMarshall
@MumonaMission
@Mammywoo
They are lovely twitter people who are always their with a supportive word and a good laugh. I also bet they won't do this!

To share my experiences of being a mother and the adventures that we get up to with The Boy. Also to document my feelings about certain situations.
2. What kind of blog do you follow?
Blogs by other mums mainly and ones I chat to lots on twitter aswell (same answer as Jenny).

4. Favorite Clothing Brand
Any that I can get to fit being 5'10" and a big bird! I do tend to like M&S and Next though.

I can't decide between Fifth Element or Demolition Man
9. What country would you like to visit and why?
I want to go to the Galapagos Islands to see the turtles (a text I did with Year Five a few years ago focused on them and I found it fascinating).
10. Are you a Cat or Dog person?
Dog definitiely. Cats are evil and defecate in my back garden.
You hate NYC wow – never 'met' anyone that didn't like it!
We went in the middle of August and they were in the middle of a heatwave – 43 degrees C everyday for 5 days. It was dirty, smelly, sweaty, horrible and the pollution stuck to everything. I do not like shopping. Those really famous buildings are office blocks so you go and stand and look at them but can't go in. It is not the most exciting American city I've been to. Same trip I experienced San Fransisco, Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Now they are worthwhile cities to visit.
i love the fifth element!!! mmm chicken!
i have a wierd make up collection with my lippy bieng randomely dior
why are you scared of the colour orange? i am frightened of eggs so im not taking the piss, just interested if you know where it started from?
and youre right, i probably wont do it, but it defo was interesting to read!! x
I'll tell you about the orange thing one day. It is completely irrational and pointless, but I know where it comes from.
orange? love this – so nice to find out more about people. I am also 5'10!
Hey! Thanks for doing this so fast! It took me 4 days! What is scary about the colour orange then? and why cant you eat those foods?
These tagged posts are great for finding things out about people aren't they? Have learnt lots about you 🙂 yay! Xx
I'm vegetarian chick!
Ah great post, slightly different to the one I tagged you in but I can see why you wouldn't want to do both. I do love these meme's, they're great for making you think a little bit outside of the box & for getting to know your fellow bloggers a bit better x
