7 Things about me…

As I’m sat back at home, I think it would only be apt to think of 7 things from when I was little!

1. When I was born, my Pops was so happy, he distributed sweets, which, nearly 40 years ago, was not the done thing, you only celebrated a boy in that way!  See, my parents taught me self respect, and the importance of a woman early on!
2. Apparently I looked like a  doll when I was little!
3. I loved reading so much I would finish book after book by a very weak light every night, and it resulted in me needing glasses at 11… but I wouldn’t change anything, that thirst for words has got me where I am now!
4. I tried to be sporty, really I did… I come from a family of sports men, and women, my Pops was a high jump record holder at school, and he was an athlete, and played hockey, mum played lacrosse and tennis, and my brother, well he played county level hockey and cricket. I sometimes liked a bit of netball, and badminton, and joined a tennis club, but it was very short lived! I’d rather dance, or read!!!
5. I was a nightmare eater, my mum would cry because I wouldn’t eat all her wonderful elaborate meals, made specially for me, as a baby, and child… but hey, I grew up ok1 And I’m making up for it now, I think I eat rather too much!!!
6. I had my tonsils out at the tender age of 4, and was so happy that I was allowed to eat ice cream, as much as I wanted!!!
7. And it’s not from my childhood, but related to being home… I fear I have eaten so much this last few days that I have put on about half a stone!!!!!!
