I'm an engineer, so expect the expected. I dislike coriander. I like owls. I hate cold water. Repeating tensions such as clocks and dripping taps, which drive some people crazy, don't seem to affect me. I survived cancer in 2019. I once drank seven mugs of tea in 15 minutes. I have trouble understanding why people keep dogs as pets. All of my names contain 7 letters. My lowest three vertebrae are held in place by titanium rods. Deep water represents the unknown, which terrifies me. I read slowly. I eat quickly. I was briefly insane in the autumn of 1990. My happiest moments were spent throwing arrows around a field when I was 12. My favourite colour is blue. I rarely catch colds. I believe that not taking part in any physical activity after the age of 30 is the equivalent of not ducking when being punched. I accept and respect the existence of an opposite point of view. I wish I had a good plot idea so I could write a book. I have never bought a tabloid newspaper. I sink in water. Of the five people I spent my teenage years with, three are dead. I think that in a family context, love should be unconditional. I believe to the core of my being that man's most divisive and destructive creation is God. I neglected my father and regret it now he's gone. I can hear and memorise numbers instantly and retain them indefinitely, but forget what my wife tells me in seconds. I dislike fruit in desserts. Masks scare me. Only my family should shorten my first name. I intend to live to the age of 121. There is no retina in my right eye. I've been to five continents but I hate sight-seeing.
I can't tell which photo I look the worst on!! Like one does - critecking (can't spell this word sorry)ones self is a must but actually, considering it was an all day do, I look quite good at the end of the night. Didn't feel it the next day though....must have been all those multi-coloured drinks I had (never had light-sensitivity before..must have been a real hangover!!!)
ReplyDeleteAnd considering Mart had 11 pints!! he was in better condition than I was and he is usually the light weight

You're on ONE of the photo's. Looking mighty foxy too, if a little overdressed.
ReplyDeleteCarry on with the work avoidance, the country's built on it you know.

Well - having nearly lost the will to live I found which bit to click to be able to do this. Sorry Russell but I'm a bit of a technophobe - so have no idea if this will work - but can I have points for trying. Anyway having viewed Lyn's pics from Saturday - I now remember when I last saw my bottle of water!! From there on in cocktails won - but you shouldn't mix your drinks should you? Anyway we had a fab day out on Saturday and on Sunday T and I took the boat to Marple. It did't break down once so it looks like T has sorted the problem at long last. Anyway take care and stay out of the sun - you don't want to look like a lobster now do you? TTFN Annie xx
ReplyDeleteAnnie, nice to hear from you and well done for retaining the aforementioned will.
ReplyDeleteCheck the very early blogs - there is evidence that I did temporarily look quite lobster-ish. Boy did I suffer.
Good news about Das Boot. Happy sailing, and keep visiting the blog!
