1. Elaborate on your default icon.
Do you mean the stone at the top? Can't remember where I found it, somewhere in the Highlands and Islands. I basically scanned it then added the text in Photoshop. I'd like to change it but haven't got round to it..
2. What’s your current relationship status?
Been with Jon for 18 months, living together for 13 of those. We met through our blogs. Thanks Typepad!
3. Ever have a near-death experience?
No.
4. Name an obvious quality you have.
I'm pretty friendly.
6. Name a celebrity you would marry.
I'd rather not because celebrity marriages don't seem to last very long. I'd consider Clive Owen though.
7. Who will cut and paste this first?
Whoever is stuck for something to blog.
8. Has anyone ever said you look like a celebrity?
Yes. Ha! A German tourist who was having a drink in the hotel I was working in said I looked like Gillian Anderson.
9. Do you wear a watch? What kind?
No, well, not at the moment. I usually become allergic to them within a few months so I kind of see them as a waste of money, and when I do buy them they are cheap ones from New Look.
10. Do you have anything pierced?
My ears, only one hole on each.
11. Do you have any tattoos?
No, don't see the attraction.
12. Do you like pain?
No. Has anyone said yes?
13. Do you like to shop?
Yes, but I prefer small independent shops and book shops.
14. What was the last thing you paid for with cash?
Bus home from the other end of Princes Street. I didn't intend to go along that far when I set off but the pathway to Stockbridge was closed and I ended up window-shopping in the New Town and then getting a bit of food. By the time I had to try to negotiate M&S (mid-refurbishment) and then ended up in Sainsburys I'd had enough and couldn't face walking home.
15. What was the last thing you paid for with your credit card?
Postage for a calendar from VistaPrint.
16. Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone?
Jon, to tell him that the river path was closed.
17. What is on your desktop background?
Something I got from a crafty website somewhere.
18. What is the background on your cell phone?
A photo I took on my phone of one of the bookshelves at my mum and Hugh's house.
19. What was the last movie you watched?
I Capture the Castle.
20. What was the last book you read?
A rubbish guide to hidden places in Scotland, from the library. It was basically an advert for b&bs around the country with very little useful information.
Consider yourselves tagged.
By the way, what is it with the weather? Well, yeah, climate change and global warming. Heather the Weather (OBE) assured us it would be non-stop rain and wind today. Well, it is now but this morning there was sunshine and it was really mild for January. I'm wearing a coat I thought I'd have to give up at the beginning of November. I've hardly worn my winter coat. Worrying, isn't it?
