Less than vital statistics

That Deanne at Quirky Boots has this list on her blog today, and in the interests of fun and constantly making everything all about me, I thought I'd take part. Please note though, that some of these answers are real genuine disclosures and require you to be tactful. Others may not be. You decide, I'm busy procrastinating today, so cannot help you further.

Age: 47
B. Bed size: King
C. Chore that you hate: Apart from all of them? Cooker and toilet cleaning, specifically. Gardening.
D. Dogs: None. (yet)
E. Essential start to your day: Kind words and coffee, lots of both, please
F. Favorite color: Yellow
G. Gold or Silver: Diamonds
H. Height: 5'3"
I. Instruments you play: Mr Dunnit's heartstrings
J. Job title: The Help
K. Kids: Miss Dunnit
L. Live: Wiltshire, UK
M. Mother's name: Penny
N. Nicknames: Loads. Unmentionable. Mr Dunnit calls me Darling. I'm OK with that one!

O. Overnight hospital stays: a handful

P. Pet peeve: Don't start me off
Q. Quote from a movie: Dunno
R. Right or left handed: Right
S. Siblings: Three sisters
T. Time you wake up: averages about 6am.
U. Underwear: I have some
V. Vegetable you hate: Ocra
W. What makes you run late: Other people!
X. X-Rays you've had: right ankle, left collarbone, left forearm, right hip - good grief!
Y. Yummy food that you make: other people's recipes
Z. Zoo Animal: penguins

The new look blog is going to take me some time to get used to - back to 2 columns...an attempt to make the posts look shorter. Fail!

    I like the new look, been wanting to update mine for a while but just not had the time.

    In reply to your question about Liam's camera, yes it was his present.

    Its a mix between a point & shoot and a dslr. Has some manual bits but can't change lens. Promised him a camera of his own before the lens on dslr hits something hard and breaks, as he tends to whack it against door frames etc and it flies off!

    Got a damn good bargain on this and sadly couldn't afford 2 this month as my daughter wants one for her Birthday and doubt they will have any left at payday :0(

    This is great stuff - enjoyed reading them all and then proceeded to interrogate myself...
    Blog looks just great and a bit like those poor three gals at the Royal Wedding - if you've seen someone else wearing it you fancy a change pretty sharpish. At first I thought you'd legged it to Wordpress...Sharing height and 6am with you.
    Have a good Tuesday...

    Live the new look although I did wonder if I was at the right place first of all!

    Great answers . . . some made me chuckle.

    Have had a few weeks of no shows at WOYWW - aiming to rectify later tonight.

    Hugs, Sandra

    Well, I'm with you on A-E and even F would have to go down as a 50:50 with turquoise, so we were clearly separated at birth! Love the new sunny blog.

    This new look threw me - I came on twice and clicked off. Not sure what I make of it - but then I am old and don't like change.

    Mmm.... I love your answers - shall I try?

    Glad I am not the only person in the world who gets up at 6am, feels like it sometimes! We are nearly the same height and I hate cleaning toilets too! Is the worst chore ever!

    Good Lord, we are twins parted at birth!! Same height, same wake up, I too have underwear and one child, same number of siblings just wrong sex... my Mum is Peggy not Penny oh and probably the biggest difference you are waaaay younger than me.... which kinda makes the twins bit slightly improbable
