ELEVENSES...

Writing from the edge has linked me into a daft blog game!

Why not is what I thought... here goes

THE RULES:
You must post these rules.
Paste the questions the “tagger” listed for you in their post onto a new post of your own and answer them
Create eleven new questions for the people you tag to answer.
Choose eleven people to tag and put a link to their pages in the post.
Let each taggee know that you have tagged them.

So - here are writingfromtheedge's 11 questions with my answers:









Looking back, which author did you most love in that transition between childhood and becoming an adult? I WAS AN AVID FAN OF ANNE FRANK AND READ THE WHOLE SERIES AGAIN AND AGAIN

Which 5 plants or species would you always want growing in your garden (or hypothetical garden)
ROSES, LAVENDER, HONEYSUCKLE, SWEET PEAS AND POPPIES (HAVE 3 SO FAR )

What would you try to save if the house went up in flames and you knew all the people and animals were safely out? PHOTOS FOR CERTAIN

Which country/city in the world (that you have never been to) would you most like to visit and why? THAILAND- FOOD, CULTURE, SOMEWHERE I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO VISIT

What's the number one favourite piece of music/song you would take to your desert island? IMPOSSIBLE TO NARROW DOWN TO ONE- IT WOULD CHANGE DEPENDING ON MY MOOD. AT THIS EXACT MOMENT- I WILL SURVIVE.

Do you read using a Kindle or would you if you could? NO AND NO BECAUSE I LOVE THE FEEL OF BOOKS

What individual item of food would you not eat, even if it was served to you at the Queen/President's dinner table? (Something ordinary, we're not talking about sheep's eyeballs here!) OFFAL, YUK

If you found an unexpected £20 in the bottom of your coat pocket, what would you spend it on - books, wine, plants, clothes, bills...? WINE :)

If your car could be any colour you want, what colour would it be? RED- IT IS- ALWAYS WANTED A RED CAR AND NOW I HAVE ONE.

Looking back, what do you most regret not buying (no matter how big or small) THE WINNING LOTTERY TICKET

Do you still have your childhood teddy bear? If so, what is he/she called? NOT ANY MORE- TEDDY




Here are my questions:

1) who from history would you most like to meet and why?
2) What would you like to be remembered for?
3) If money was no object, describe your ideal home
4) What was your favourite board game as a child?
5) Can you remember what your first wristwatch was like?
6) At a party what is the first "nibble" you go for?
7) Walking or cycling?
8) Best way to drink coffee?
9) Milk or plain (chocolate as if I need to add)
10) If you ruled the world what would be the first thing that you would change?
11) If you could see into the future, would you?

I'm not sure how to tag people so I will tweet this instead. Sorry if that isn't quite following the rules!
