Right! A Challenge

I’ve been challenged by Carly to share five things about myself that very few people know. The challenge has been issued because I haven’t blogged since November, which is true and admittedly, disgusting.

1. I have (had) a huge phobia of public locker rooms, like the ones at the gym. The nudity makes me feel very uncomfortable. I’ve systematically been desensitising myself to be able to cope with it. I’m getting along fine at the moment…

2. Although I am not a twin, I share my birthday (which is soon, hint hint) with my beloved younger sister. That’s right, the present my parents gave me on my second birthday was indeed, a little sister.

3. I’m am actually pretty darn good at ‘boy things’. I can build stuff, fix cars and electrics, change tyres, drive tractors and motorbikes, even climb trees and build fires… things like that.

4. I used to be a c cup (at least). That’s right, I know the plight of the fat man! In my younger days, there was a point when I would have been classified as morbidly obese. Thanks to weigh-less I lost over 30kg in the space of about a year and have (mostly) managed to keep it off since then. I still LOVE me some cake.

5. I am deathly allergic to Peaches and anything related to peaches including apricots and nectarines. I swell up. If I get too close to them the effect is an instant Glodie Hawn look circa the first few scenes in “The First Wives Club” where her plastic surgeon overdoes the collagen in her lips. Of course the big threat is that my throat will swell and I will die…

There you go! Five things about me that few people know!
