My six:
1. I was vegetarian for over 40 years....until I met Fletch, who gradually tempted me with that which is the downfall of many a veggie, the bacon buttie! I still prefer not to eat any meat but I do admit now to a 'slip' once in a while.
2. It's a wonder to me sometimes I am here to tell the tale, I have been caught up in not one but two IRA bombs, an armed bank robbery and been rather too close to Harold Shipman for comfort!
3. I have an appendectomy scar that is way bigger than it should be because as a gymnast, when I presented with abdominal pains at age 11 the medical profession assumed I had 'pulled a muscle'.... until the appendix burst and peritonitis made it a whole lot more urgent.
4. I detest all forms of discrimination, probably because I have been on the receiving end of it for years, one day I might elaborate on the reasons why.
5. When I divorced my second husband he begged me not to take the house from him telling me he couldn't cope with losing both me and his home, so out of guilt/care/whatever and against my lawyers advice I trusted him and didn't........ the day the divorce became final he sold it making £130k clear profit and walking away with every penny and possession! *Lesson.....never trust anyone during divorce proceedings, however much you think you can!*
6. Years ago when trying to effect an arrest on a shoplifter (it was my job) I ended up lying on the floor struggling to hang on to him and taking the rough end of his boot....not one single member of the public came to my assistance, instead they stood and watched! Yayyyy for the quick response of the police.Right then that's my six....now I get to tag six of you! Yes, I know we all have a love/hate relationship with being tagged but them's the rules! ;o)
