TAGGED AGAIN!! Because you're always getting this in reverse-chronological order, that STOP PRESS below is quite redundant - duh! I never think dem typa tings out.
Anyhow, the next one's easy.
SIX WEIRD THINGS ABOUT ME. So get sniggering, folks. (Thanks a lot, Ruth.) (Ruth is the one who tagged me. Again. Grrrrr!!)
1. I DON'T LIKE HOT FOOD at all. I much prefer it lukewarm. Or even room temperature. But definitely not piping hot. (Easy one to deal with. Just give it 5 mins...)
2. I SLEEP JUST AS HAPPILY ON THE FLOOR AS IN BED. And Hammy likes sleeping up my sleeve. Where it is nice and warm, I suppose.
3. I CALL MYSELF AN ALCOHOLIC BUT I'D MUCH RATHER DRINK CHOCOLATE MILK. Campina Yazoo is the only brand I'll buy. Or I make my own with Nesquik. (& yes I've tried adding spirits to it. I just think that spoils the flavour. Or flavor. (See below.)
4. I DON'T WATCH TV. I keep BBC Radio 4 & World Service on 24-7 instead. (Really I ought to get digital radio, I know.)
5. I'M HOOKED ON THE DRUGS (as you all know) BUT I CAN'T HANDLE A SIMPLE SPLIFF. I'm glad I haven't got MS...
6. FI'N SAES OND FI'N SIARAD CYMRAEG YN DDIGON DA I ALLU SGRYFENNU LLYTHUR ELECTRONEG SYML. (I'm English but I can speak Welsh well enough to be able to write a simple email etc.)

See how much we learn about each other doing these tags! Impressed with the Welsh.....do you have Welsh family background? Funny 'cos when I was about your age Radio 4 and World Service were my bedmates (in a bed without hamster) You have something in common with Mick...he's a choc milkshake lover.Re: 5..no experience there save some funny cakes once at a party....just made me giggle.

Yes I was thinking of doing that tonight but it's getting 2 late now.
Know what you mean about the timings. I gave up on it myself bc didn't have 20 mins of patience to spare.
Went back to my old blog just now to collect comments (please don't post 'em there anymore folks. Post 'em here. Please! Thanks.)
I spent ages looking at that damn eggtimer.
Okay, now, how many languages does that make it? Let's see, you speak English (in both its British and American dialects!), French, German, and now, Welsh? Why aren't you at the UN making a fortune? ;-)
I am totally unimpressed with cannabis as well. I have little interest in the panic and paranoia. But unlike you, I prefer my chocolate in solid form rather than in milk solution!
I can just picture you on the floor with Hammy up your sleeve!
Yeah but there is the issue of quite HOW well you speak dem tongues. eg Welsh really its elementary but enough to shock ppl. French: well 1/2 the words in English are FRENCH so that is easy. Well easy to get 80% right, the way I do. German is Germanic like English so it puts you in touch with your inner Beowulf. I love the German language. Anyway there are taxi drivers in Cairo who = more polyglot than me. I'm serious!!
Re chocolate. I prefer to drink it. Well don't know why but okay this is it. Drinking milk = good for your teeth. So that's what I tell myself.
As for hammy yes. But he sleep inniz own bed lasta night. Bc im misbe'ave on mi b4...
