1. What facial feature do you find the most attractive on others?
I get more attracted to non facial features (a great arse, for example) rather than specific facial things.
2. Would you vote for a woman candidate for president/prime minister?
If I believed she could do a better job of it than her competitors I would. I wouldn’t vote for her simply because she was a woman.
3. Would you marry for money?
No, I’m marrying for love. (wow how soppy and crap does that sound!)
4. Have you had braces?
No but my brother did and it was hilarious.
5. Do you pluck your eyebrows?
No. I did once I think, then decided what the hell. My manager at work (who is a man) had his waxed though.
6. Do you ever cut or hurt yourself?
Not intentionally. I can be very clumsy (touching hot oven shelves, baking trays and the grill on our fan heater are my top three stupid accidents these days.)
7. When was the last time you had a hickey?
Gods when I was a child I suppose. You know, of the age when that sort of thing might be considered “cool”.
8. Could you live without a computer?
With difficulty. I mean I could read books and play my instruments and listen to cds and watch telly, but I’d still feel somewhat empty without things like forums, stupid flash games and general internet-y goodness.
9. Do you use ICQ, AOL Buddy list etc..?
MSN. Occasionally ICQ if I have it installed and want to talk to Chris.
10. If so, how many people are on your list(s)?
141 apparently, although I generally only ever talk to about 4 or 5 people on it (including Beaver, when he’s sat right next to me!)
11. If you could live in any past time period, which would it be?
I quite like living now actually.
12. Do you drink enough water?
Nah, I only ever drink cherry coke, dr pepper and wine.
13. Do you wear shoes in the house or take them off?
If I remember to I tend to take them off, but I have a habit of forgetting and leaving them on until Beav reminds me I’ve still got them on. I have 2 pairs of slippers and several house-friendly sandals, as its generally not wise to go into the kitchen or bathroom bare footed.
14. What is your favorite fruit?
I don’t have a favourite to eat, bananas are ok cos they don’t take long to eat, I prefer passion fruit as a flavour in things like juice cake or puddings.
15. Do you eat wheat bread or white?
I eat most bread except for that weird multi-grain stuff.
16. What is your favorite place to visit?
I quite like going to Pembrokeshire now, as its always interesting and fun. Especially going to the beach or up on the coast path.
17. What is the last movie you saw?
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (I got bored on my day off so watched the first two HP films again)
18. Do you kiss on the first date?
Past experience says “I don’t go on ‘dates’”
19. Are you photogenic?
Most of the time. Noone ever looks 100% fantastic in every single picture. But I think I manage to look good or ok more often than I look terrible.
20. Do you dream in color or black and white?
Colour. At least I remember my dreams in colour. I guess cos I see everything in colour when I’m awake so I know what colour things are.
21. Are you wearing fingernail polish?
No I don’t tend to at the moment cos its against company policy to wear a) outlandish colours on your nails, or b) have chipped and ugly looking nail polish. Most of my nail polish is orange or bright pink or purple and I’m very bad at looking after it.
22. Do you have any dimples?
I wasn’t aware of any.
23. Do you remember being born?
Of course not. I only have vague memories of living in Beddau, most of my memories come from Pembrokeshire, and I was 6 when we moved there.
24. Why do you take surveys?
Cos I have nothing better to do.
25. Do you drink alcohol?
Have a glass of red wine in hand as I type!
26. Did you like or do you like high school?
I enjoyed school. I was the centre of a fantastic group of friends, I got on well with pretty much everyone I was in school with, both fellow students and all the teachers. I didn’t really have problems with school.
27. What is the most beautiful language?
Any language can be beautiful if you say the right things. I do like French though.
28. When you are asleep do you like being kissed awake?
Not every day! I like my sleep, and being kissed awake can be very sensual and romantic. Definitely better than being sat on or thrown out of bed!
29. Do you like sunrises or sunsets the most?
I love both, as they both have very different effects on the sky etc. However I have enjoyed far more sunsets than sunrises, as I only see the sun rise at LRP events when I’ve been up drinking all night, and I see the sun set all the time.
30. Do you want to live to be 100?
I want to live forever. But I want to be 21 forever. I don’t want to get old and doddery. I want to be an active pensioner like my Granny.
32. Do you like salty food or sugary food the most?
Sugary food.
33. Is a flat stomach important to you?
Not important per se, but I’ve started to develop a bit of a wobbly belly (too much lager, cake and not enough exercise) so I wouldn’t mind having my flat stomach back.
34. Do you or have you played with a ouija board?
No.
35. Are you loyal?
Bit of a generic question this isnt it. To Beav, 100%. To my family, 100%. And as Caro rightly said, although I may bitch and gossip about my friends, if they ever need me I am there for them.
36. Are you tolerant of other people's beliefs?
To a certain extent. I can just as easily ignore someones beliefs as I can have a massive argument with them about why they are wrong.
37. When you watch movies at home, do you like the lights on or off?
Depends on the movie really.
38. Do you believe in magic?
All you need is faith, trust and a little bit of pixie dust. J
39. Do you have nightmares frequently?
No. I have very weird dreams, which ocassionally wake me up suddenly, but they’re never scary or upsetting.
40. Do you like your nose?
I have nothing against the shape or location of my nose, it does its job properly, I just get irritated by its tendency to be dry and flaky at the top and oily and spotty at the bottom.
41. Do you like abstract art?
I prefer ‘pictures of things’ than some weird array of colour that has some meaning hidden in it somewhere. I went to the modern art museum in Paris when I was a kid, and there was this painting which was a massive, wall-sized canvas painted entirely in one shade of blue. It was worth millions apparently. I looked at it and thought “I used to paint like that when I was 5. Why arent I a millionaire?”
42. Do you think you can draw well?
With time and patience yes. Art and creativity runs in my family, so painting, drawing and music are all in my blood. I just chose music over art.
43. Do you listen to music daily?
Yes. I’d go crazy if I didn’t.
44. Do you like to watch cartoons?
I like cartoons. Old 80s cartoons are the best. New ones like Spongebob bloody Squarepants are crap however.
45. At what age did you find out that Santa Claus wasn't real?
It was probably when I stopped going to my gran’s for christmas. Cos at my grans I would go to bed on Xmas eve, hang up my stocking, and get woken up at 6am by my brother, bashing me with my stocking. We would tear downstairs and all these presents would have appeared in the front room. When we stopped going to Granny’s we would go up in October and exchange Christmas presents, so our presents would be in the house (obviously) for months before christmas. I still get presents from Santa though.
46. How many pairs of shoes do have in your closet?
Too many! 7x boots, 1x trainers, 3x work shoes, 2x slippers, 4x going out shoes, 3x sandals. Fucking hell I own at least 20 pairs of shoes!
47. Do you like to wear the same shoes everyday or do you like a variety?
I have to wear the same shoes in work (boring yet comfy black Hush Puppies, and I wear my hiking boots to and from work. I tend to wear other shoes/boots in the evening or when I go out or away from home.
48. Do you write poetry?
No. I wrote one poem when I was in school, about my cat Daisy (who died 10 years ago today). I think all of my creative genius went into that one poem so I cant write any more cos they’ll be shit.
49. Do you snore?
Probably.
50. Do you sleep more on your back, front, or sides?
I fall asleep on my side and wake up on my back.
51. Would you rather have a poodle or a rottweiler?
I always wanted a standard poodle when I was a kid. Now I just want cats.

No I have sticky ones. Like most people in this country.

No, I buy easy-open tins.
54. Have you ridden in a hot air balloon?
No but I’d like to.
55. Which hurts the most, physical or emotional pain?
I’ve not suffered a great deal of emotional pain. Burning my hands with hot oil from a frying pan. Now that hurt a hell of a lot. Nothing hurts like that.
56. Do you think balding men should shave their heads?
Depends on the man. My uncle did and it looks really cool. Some men it wouldn’t suit.
57. Do you know anyone who is clinically depressed?
Yes, more than one.
58. Do you prefer a piano or a violin?
Difficult question as I play both! A violin played well (ie not by me) can sound incredible, but the piano has my heart and soul.
59. Are you a sex addict?
Not an addict no, I can go without as easily as I go with.
60. Do you know someone who has cancer?
I know people who have both survived and not survived cancer. Survivors include Beav’s brother (leukemia) and my Aunty Joan (breast cancer). Not survivor was my best friend Cath’s gran, Barbara.
61. Do you hunt?
Hunting is wrong.
62. Do you like fast food joints, or expensive restaurants?
My favourite restaurant in the world at the moment is La Tasca, which isnt expensive but is posh.
