I got tagged by Vicky Stringer (@rosevibe), Jo Jordon (@jobucks) and Jed Baxter (@jedb). They shared 25 things about themselves and tagged 25 peeps that they would like to know more about, they then tag a further 25 more and it goes on and on and on...
I've actually really enjoyed reading these, 1) it helps to get to know each other better and 2) networking at it's best..
So if you're game, have a go, I'd like to know a bit more about you. I know some of you don't write blogs however you can post a note on Facebook, it's easy just click on your profile and go to notes under tabs, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish. And/or cross-post it on your Blog or somewhere similar that your friends can find.

So did you know..

1. I'm the youngest of three, older brother and sister (sis is only 11 months older than me)

4. I spell words so badly that spell check does not even recognise them.
5. I had both my kids by the age of 23.
6. I spent the first few years of my marriage subjected to racial abuse and trouble. I'm married to an Irish man and live in a fairly Asian orientated community..did not bear well years ago but I refused to move, I was there first, so tough!
7. I'm a sucker for junk food, give me a dirty burger or a doner kebab any day.

16. It's likely I will get a tattoo sometime this year.
17. I love music and open to all genres..love it all.
18. I broke every rule my parents expected me to follow in terms of tradition and culture, mainly because I wanted to make my own choices and be responsible for them too.

20. I love babies and little people, I go completely ga ga
