Could this save the future of the human race?

Well, a quick little update before I move onto the more serious matter of the Meme. One more day left of placement and that's it, kinda scary that I'll no longer be a student. The job, they're being so slack and I still haven't been given an official yes but I'm 99% sure I have it, they're just taking their time, I'll be contacting them on Wednesday to get an update. I've just got a temporary, part time admin job at my university to give me some extra cash for the next month.

And onto the meme.

Tagged!

Well I disapeared a bit over Christmas, quite unintentionally. I was very busy, and had a great Christmas. I hope my readers did too, and failing that have a great New Year.

Well, I have been tagged. I don't quite hae the eloquency or the creativity of MrMan's Wife but here goes...

A - Available/Single? No, in a (relatively) long distance relationship for the past 4 years.
B - Best Friend? Poppy, she doesnt' read this blog so perhaps I should show her my appreciation sometime
C - Cake or Pie? Cake, unless it's apple pie with custard
D - Drink Of Choice? Tea, where there is tea there is hope.
E – Essential Item You Use Everyday? My mobile, though my feet would say my hot water bottle or heated slippers, they would probably die without them
F - Favourite Colour?/ Black, blue or purple, oooh or silver. Or turquoise/emerald green.
G - Gummy Bears Or Worms? The bears are cuter
H - Hometown? Good ol' London town
I - Indulgence? Oooh, I have so many, especially post-Christmas. But probably biscuits to go with my tea, or chocolate in small quantities.
J - January Or February? Neither particularly, I suppose possibly maybe January.
K - Kids & Their Names? I have a golden retriever, Corri, a black and white cat, Blot, and a ginger cat, Zampa, and they're just like small children. (Only Blot is actually mine, they're family pets)
L - Life Is Incomplete Without? God. (Though chocolate, science fiction and love are pretty important too. But assuming you believe in God and that He is the creator of everything I think He covers that)
M - Marriage date? None yet, though I always think a summer or warm autumnal wedding would be nice.
N - Number Of Siblings? One younger brother.
O - Oranges Or Apples? Apples.
P - Phobias/Fears? Being alone, getting older and being dependent on others. (That's just one fear)
Q - Favourite Quote? Hmmmm... My bedroom walls are covered with poem and quotes, written onto the wall paper with black marker. The following quotes aren't my favourite, I don't thik I could choose a favourite, they are pretty good though.

  • "He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy" is always good for a smile (taken from Monty Python's The Life of Brian)
  • "Be not inhospitable to strangers, lest they be angels in disguise" (this was written above a doorway in a bookshop, The Shakespeare Co. Bookshop in Paris)

R - Reason to Smile? I am loved (that sounds vaguely familiar) and I have a lot of chocalate
S - Season? Summer, though the grass is always greener on the other side and I always want it to be a different season as I'm either too hot or too cold.
T - Tag people? Hmm... I don't have anyone to tag who hasn't been tagged already. My readers (if there are any other than MMW), anyone who reads this and wants to please comment with your answers.
U - Unknown Fact About Me? Unknown to who? Unknown to me? Well would someone please tell me what it is?
V - Vegetable you don’t like? Gherkins.
W - Worst Habit? Apologising, it drives people mad, and then I apologise for apologising.
X - X-rays You’ve Had? Dental, chest and hand.
Y - Your Favourite Food? Pasta in creamy tomato and herb sauce with grated cheese, or sweet and sour chicken with fried noodles/rice
Z – Zodiac sign? Leo, hear me roar.

I'm obviously abit slow today, I thought the questions were a bit random, it's only after adding some bold tags I've noticed the question is for each letter of the alphabet!
