Ten years ago? Living with G in Argentina - no kids! A world away. Don't remember what it felt like.
Your choice of three bad habits are mine!
Awh to your billionaire answer, you have a big heart.
I think I may have a go at this, if I can remember that far back.
Loved your answers by the way and can understand you favorite snacks.
Loved your answers, especially to billionaire.
I'd have to think hard about ten years ago. I'd probably have to think hard about ten minutes ago too.
Wossa Pocky Stick?? Am I missing a crispy choc combination?
re. billionsiare: You're an absolute angle.
Sorry,that should say, angle, sorry... a-n-g-e-l.
I'm a bit squiffed, havinbg downed msot of a bottle of rather nicewine this eveing...and I wonder who;se fault thatis, eh?
Pacha - your ten years ago really is a world away honey.
Yvonne - not really, it's just something I would like to do
Debs - there's a definite theme to the snack choices
Lane - Pocky sticks are a Japanese delicacy. They are a very thin stick of crispy biscuit - covered in chocolate. Genius, eh?
Leigh - I take full responsibility my love
Had to laugh at your laziness answers! Thats me to a T ! x
Love this mememememes.
Flashes into quirks.
10 years ago I was planning a wedding for next month, looking after a small child.
If you asked me 9, 8, 5, 6, etc etc - I wouldn't know!

Little Chef Waitress - that's very "retro cool" I bet you saw some characters in there of an early morning shift....Ten years ago I was drinking my liver into submission using a fake ID, ah those were the days... :)
Ever Ready battery packer? Good lord! Lovely answers though. Sadly, I can remember what I was doing 10 years ago. I have an unnaturally long memory :o)
Funny how chocolate seems to appear on everyone's list!
Would you recommend the Maeve Binchy book? The Book People have it on offer at the moment and it's looking very tempting.
MotherX - it is a real issue with me!
Sweet Caroline - you must have been a very beautiful bride.
Kerry - my waitress phase isn't one I want to revisit!
Karen -
this was in the days before health and safety and the battery acid really took the skin off your fingers! Not nice :(
Maddie - yes, I would recommend the Maeve Binchy. I've found myself skipping a few bits that were of no interest (like writing for children) but generally a good common sense guide.
Helen. If I do the tag I'm going to have to make it all up. Still, I'll have a go.
Oh, what do you think of the Maeve Binchy Writers book thingy? I've got it sitting next to the bed but haven't managed to read it yet.
I'm loving the sound of pocky sticks... and if they're Japanese, they must be healthy.
Shame you don't still live in T Wells - we'd be nearly neighbours.
Annie - yeah make it up! Can't wait to hear what you come up with!
Jen - ooh yes, pocky sticks - very healthy! I'm going to do a review of the Maeve Binchy book as a couple of people have asked about it.
