Christmas

Christmas is odd. It makes people behave strangly.

Parents spend the year telling their kids not to trust strangers, especially strange grown ups who offer gifts etc. Then come Christmas they’re telling tales of old men in fur, coming into their bedroom in the middle of the night with armfuls of toys and sweets.

No wonder some kids are messed up.

Dogga tagged me a long while back, so here’s my response:

Rules: Link to the person who tagged you and post these rules in your blog entry. Share 5 facts about yourself, some random, some weird. Tag 5 people at the end of your post, link to them and let them know they’ve been tagged by commenting on their blogs.

1. I am an amateur magician.

2. I wear my watch on the right hand (or the wrong hand depending on where you’re stood)

3. I’m a gadget* freak.

4. I once played the role of sir Douglas Haig and other smaller roles in ‘Oh What A Lovely War’.

5. I invented the question mark**
