5 Things About You

jana fraser · Post by **jana fraser** » Mon Aug 21, 2006 5:49 am

1. I love the sea. It is my fervent wish to retire one day on an island where I can look out at the sea and the tides going in and out.

2. More than ANYTHING I hate snakes. Odd that I was even persuaded to go see SNAKES ON A PLANE. The lure of Samuel Jackson was just too strong for me to resist even if he was accompanied by those slithering pests.

3. I am a packrat. I keep everything. When I die, they will search through my things for days and probably have a huge bonfire in my honour getting rid of it all)

4. I am comfortable in my skin even though it doesn't fit as well as it did 20 years ago!

5. My happiest days are those spent with 'family' ....those are golden ones that nothing can compare to.

Uncle Kram · Post by **Uncle Kram** » Mon Aug 21, 2006 6:24 am

1. I've slipped my disc several times

2. My ex-wife told me she'd be inundated with offers & no woman would ever look at me

3. Sharon Osbourne used to come and watch my band. So did Def Leppard.

4. My arteries are unhappy about my love of cheese.

5. I wrote a poem about the Dambusters in 1970 and my mom still shows it to people

I love helping people, having made one person smile per day is a great day.

I was born back when the Dinosaurs roamed the Earth.

I am also quite insecure, mostly see the negative in myself, but positive in everyone else (I'm learning)

When my kids were small I was proud of not having been the shortest (that has changed)

I really had to think about this, and my motto is "Thinking Hurts"

We certainly can have a talk about all our favourite sci-fi programmes, but you don't have to wait until the next FG meet up. You are welcome to meet up with me any time and you can bring Suzy along too or I can pop up and visit you and Suzy near a town/city where you live.
