Meme .....Filling in the blanks

Mama ...and more .... tagged me for this particular piece and I will do my best to oblige. I'm not too good at describing myself and hope that this will give you an insight into who I am.

I am....~~an idiot, but more than that, I am a stupid idiot.~~ much more than I was at 20. Searching for my reason for being, brings me to where I am now. I am all I was brought up to be, and no longer afraid of making a mistake or admitting it. I am proud of who I am and fear has no place in my life.

The bravest thing I have ever done….was to chase after two young men who had broken into
my car and stolen the stereo...OK, maybe not brave but stupid, but I did get my stereo back!

I feel prettiest..... when I have a brown paper bag over my head. I've always said that BH married me for my earning potential...he doesn't disagree.

Something that keeps me up at night.... is worrying I may have inadvertently offended someone. I say things without thinking...BECAUSE I THINK IT'S FUNNY. This phrase has been used many times in my defence and on many occasions it has worked. I very nearly lost my job because of it!

My favourite meal is.... chocolate...but you really can't have a meal of chocolate (without throwing up), so that probably doesn't count. So it would have to be egg and chips. We were never allowed chips growing up, so chips dunked in an egg with mayo. Clearly I haven't evolved as a foodie.

The way to my heart is...by having a wicked sense of humour. An incredibly beautiful person without humour is like eating chocolate without taste buds...such a waste of time! I was attracted to BH initially because he was gorgeous...but he also slayed me with his wit..win/win!

I would like to be... an actress when I grow up, failing that a cowboy. These two dreams are never likely to happen.

So, there you go...me in all my gory, glory. Now I've got to tag some other peeps that I've been reading recently, if they've done it already, my apologises to them. If they don't want to, I know they'd love you to visit. Thanks to lovely Mama... and more, for thinking of me.

Cyber bullying? Where do we go?

I watched something quite awful unfold on Twitter last week, and I began to wonder whether we are being a little bit too open about our personal lives? I have nothing to hide about my personal life (except my identity!), and my personal details are there for all to see. There are "crazies" out there, that we can be sure of, but I never expected to see such vitriolic abuse targeted at one individual. To cut a long story short, an individual, for reasons of their own decided to target a particular lady who had been campaigning and raising awareness for different charitable groups. This lady had been open and honest and had suffered her own personal tragedy, but for some reason " the crazy" had decided that she was a charlatan. Over a period of a week her "friends" had become the subject of a barrage mad tweets and saw the lady being reduced to a quivering wreck and trying to explain to friends what had happened in a very moving audio boo .

My au-pair's a dustman...well she's not really... she's a ho!

My au pair Miriam , is a beautiful sultry girl from the Slovak Republic or Slovakia as it is most commonly known. Most of the girls that have lived with us either come from Slovakia or the Czech Republic. I've chosen them in particular because they have the "family values" that I want for my family. I know that I can't tar everyone with the same brush, it's just that it has worked for me. However...Miriam is the exception to the rule. Miriam is sensual; Miriam languishes; she loves burning candles and incense sticks. She loves long, bubbly baths with big fluffy towels. Miriam walks the dogs in stilettos (how?), and loves my red lipstick (on her!) Miriam loves MTV. Miriam loves raiding my wardrobe, and Miriam loves men...all men! As was usual for a Sunday early evening we had all settled down to watch a movie. Mimi was in bed and the boys were snuggled up on the sofa with BH. Ben , (22 and stunning!), was on the other sofa, with his laptop researching with

Brilliant! And I love the idea of being a cowboy when you grow up!! I clearly need more imagination ; )

I say, you got your stereo back! That's seriously impressive! No one would ever break into my car - there's so much rubbish on the floor it already looks like it's been burgled. I even leave the doors open - but no such luck I'm stuck with the Old Girl:)

Absolutely with you on the sense of humour thing. Also on the cowboy thing. But the egg and chips thing? Hmmm, the jury's still out on that one!

Don't diss the egg and chips! A bit like chicken soup for the soul...I could do gyoza (yum, yum) at a push!
Jane, leaving the car open would be an ivitation for the squatters! Don't do it!
