Honest Scrap Award

Sarah from Speak up librarian has gave me an Honest Scrap Award. So after reading what this is all about, which if you click on the link below you can too, I have now done mine.

So here is 10 honest things about myself.

1. I only eat chicken and fish. I don’t eat any other meat. I used to not eat meat at all at one time when I was in my teens at school.

2. When I was 18 years old, bus drivers used to think I was still at school and charge me half fare on the bus, till I told em I was 18. People used to think I was mad for being honest about it. They used to say I should have got on for half fare while I could. When I was in my 20’s, I still found people used to think I was 19 or some other young age. Thankfully, buying a drink from a pub was never a problem.

3. 23rd October this year, will be 2 years since me and Richard have been going out together. I discovered after a few months going out with him, that it was love at first sight for him from the first day he met me.

4. I make hand made greeting cards, so this comes in handy when it someones birthday in the family. I don’t have to go to a shop for a card. I went into self employment in my spare time for a year doing this as well once.  Although it was by accident, I enjoyed the experience gained from it.

5. I struggle with my confidence. Its always something I’ve battled with from time to time. Hopefully I’m slowly getting better.

6. I’ve recently started doing a home study course with the Writers Bureau, called Writing For Children. So I may come out with 1 or more books for children in the future. I have 1 or 2 in the pipeline I’m working on.

7. Although I’m animal mad, I know my limits and would never overcrowd a home with pets. 1 or 2 are enough. But since Lady passed away I don’t have plans to have another pet, as I have other things to occupy me. So having a pet would not be fair at the moment.

8. I like a variety of music, but mostly I play stuff with a good beat like R& B.

9. I don’t like racism or people that behave like a thug.

10. I would never go to a school reunion. My years at a Comprehensive School were not the best years of my life. My life started when I left with GCSE’s.
