Caroline, No passed on the Beautiful Blogger Award, in which you have to list seven things about yourself. I’m really bad at these things, and about 2 months too late, but Caroline is back from the US now, so here are the Top Seven Things You Never Knew About Me. Click here to see Caroline’s top 7.
Me and my sister have a secret snorting sound we make when something is shit, you can’t hear it unless you’d find yourself standing right next to one of us. Very useful for discreetly calling bullshit on someone.
At Brownies I suggested the summer parade should have a Second World War theme and we could listen to Glenn Miller and pretend to be orphans. Needless to say it wasn’t picked (they went for Hawaiian, Bo-ring!), and no, I didn’t have any friends at Brownies.
I can do a mean ‘Regulate’ on the ol’ karaoke. Chords, strings we brings, melody. G-Funk, where rhythm is life and life is rhythm.
I’ve worn a hearing aid for a few years after an operation. It’s really annoying when people look at you like you might have learning difficulties (cheers woman in Streatham Tesco!), and when tube drivers hock up phlegm doing their neverending announcements. But, A Very Good Thing is when you cross eyes with a child or an awkward teenager (do un-awkward teenagers exist?) who also wears a hearing aid, and you do a little smile to each other. It’s all about the kids man!
When I was at Catwalk Queen I had a You Tube fan who made me a video love poem.
I was probably the UK’s biggest Reef fan. Don’t ask me why but I had all their singles (signed, obvs), and knew EVERYTHING about them, including their starsigns. This was kind of before the internet so mad props to my research skills/ayyeeee to my stalker skills. Thankfully I’m over that and have a semi-decent taste in music now, still remember all the words tho.
I won best-dressed class of 2000.
I’m tagging some bloggers, on a pure level of noseyness: Enchanted Hunters, Canned Fashion, Chuck’s Miscellany and some of my IRL BFFS: Furcoat No Knickers, Samand (even though I know everything about her ever), Ephemera Emporium
