I’ve been meme-ed, tagged by daughter
Caitriona

the rules:
Each player starts with 8 random facts/habits about themselves.
People who are tagged, write a blog post about their own 8 random things, and post these rules.
At the end of your post you need to tag 8 people and include their names.
Don’t forget to leave them a comment and tell them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

1. I smoked, mainly roll-ups for about 25 years, now I can’t bear the smell of second hand smoke.

2. I am untidy and slovenly in my habits, would never voluntarily dust or hoover.

3. I am addicted to bad puns.

4.I drink and eat too much.

5. I am entirely profligate with money and if it wasn’t for my wife would long ago have been reduced to penury

6.I regularly wake at four in the morning,have a two hour burst of creative energy,as now, then retire and sleep for another few hours.

7.I hate chewing gum and would never allow my children to use it.

8. I never pass on these tags, I just leave everyone else do that.
