Holidaytime Memetime
Tuesday August 12, 2008
Time for a meme. I haven’t answered all of the questions because I’m lazy. You can find the full set at Bloody Hell, It’s a Book Barrage!
- Have you ever smoked a cigarette? Yep, but not for eight years.
- Do you own a gun? No, although I hear that happiness is a warm one.
- Do you like hot-dogs? Yes, I stupidly tend to go for all types of fast food.
- Favourite Christmas Song? I’ll save that for the Christmas memes.
- What do you prefer to drink in the morning? Tea.
- Can you do push-ups? Haven’t tried this for years. So probably no.
- What’s your favourite meal? Fish and chips by the seaside.
- Do you work with people who idolize you? I doubt it.
- Name a trait that you hate about yourself? Attraction to memes.
- Favourite place to go? Cornwall.
- What is your most recurring dream? Sitting an exam and realising I haven’t revised the subject (or being in a play and realising I haven’t learnt the lines). Another weird dream is that it’s my wedding day and the police have just turned up looking for me – and I’ve just remembered the blood-stained rag in the back of my car.
- Introvert or extrovert? Extrovert-Introvert.
- What songs do you sing in the shower? Kurt Weill.
- What’s in your pocket right now? Hanky, keys, memory stick, £1.47 in change.
- Last thing that made you laugh? My daughter’s impersonation of her mother.
- Bed sheets as a child? Rupert.
- Worst injury you’ve ever had? Stab wound (accidentallly self-inflicted).
- Do you love where you live? Yes.
- What is your favorite candy? Do you mean sweeties? Cola bottles.
- What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up this morning? Get rid of the blood-stained rag.

Love the answer to question 20. I was thinking ‘has he had a nosebleed or something’ and then it suddenly hit me :-)
Was almost tempted to take part in this meme, but am looking for some meme which isn’t ‘here’s 20 daft questions about yourself’ to kick off my memeing again.

Very Cute! I love Cornwall too. I meant to tell you awhile back that I bought a Fred Yates painting at Land’s End years ago. Now that he has just passed away, I wonder if my little painting will increase in value.

Jack: what about your top 20 favourite memes that you’ve done? In alphabatical order, broken down into three, five or seven sections each?
Chartroose: I would have thought so. Any painting vaguely Cornish by an artist dead or alive seems to fetch a lot these days.
