I've been tagged . . .

I have been tagged by two lovely ladies, thank you Amanda at My Secret Garden and  Lady Rose at A Queen in Her Castle.

Thankyou ladies. Instead of doing two of these I have combine the questions (as several were the same) - enjoy.   

1.Where did you meet your husband, generally speaking?

Workplace romance.

2. What is one of your most favourite movies?

I couldn’t think of just one movie, so here are three favourites: “I am David”, “Miss Potter” and “An Affair to Remember”.  As to mini-series this would have to include: Emma (2009), Pride and Prejudice (BBC) and Jane Eyre (2006).

 







3. If you could have any career your what would it be?
Owner of a small bookstore as in the movie “You’ve got Mail” with a little reading nook and perhaps a spot to enjoy Devenshire tea.

4. What character in the bible do you really relate to the most

Elizabeth, she never ceased trusting God, even though she didn’t understand why she was still barren “For with God nothing shall be impossible.” Luke 1:37 (It is also the name of my sister that I will one day meet in heaven.)

5. Where did you get married, what town/city
Adelaide at the registry office.

6. What makes you laugh easily?
A funny movie or story.  It doesn’t take much to make me laugh—sometimes it is hard for me to stop, especially when I get the giggles.

7. If you could live in another country, which one would be?

New Zealand, very beautiful (not overcrowded) and not that far from Australia so I could still fly to see my family.  Otherwise Canada, but that would be far too far from home!!  If my husband had any say he would say Britain, the home of his birth.

8. Name five favourite activities that I like to do?
Reading (couldn't live without this activity), gardening (a big favourite in spring and Autumn), photography, card making, cooking (can become a chore when I do it every day).

9. What is my most challenging household chore?  Briefly explain why it is challenging?

Cleaning the oven – the foam I use smells horrible, the oven is usually dirty and greasy - and it involves having to stick my head in the oven!  It isn't a task I do very often and sometimes my DH will do it for me!!

10. What is the happiest day of my life? (cannot count married or engagement).
The birth of my sons, nothing can beat that.

 11. What annoys or irritates you the most?
There is a couple of things that come to mind – people who sniff, people who speed. Forgot, people who leave empty contains in the fridge - they don't have legs and I have to move them myself. I don't run a hotel!!!

12. Write a six-line poem of rhyming couplets?

I sit here struggling to write
Not a word comes into sight.

What shall I do, I must not cry
So instead I will go and eat meat pie.

That’s it, I've had enough,
I will move from pie to cream puff!
