An award has come my way from Sabrina at My Cottage Dream so now I must let you all in on a few of my secrets.....things that I may not have told you.
1. I am a science nut. As a small child I read a lot of science books and could tell you important things like the life cycle of a fern or plate tectonics or even the habits of a cricket. This is something that I never grew out of and I still am fascinated by anything science related. Needless to say I also did science at uni, became a laboratory technician and ended up working in a seed testing laboratory.
2. I like things to be balanced or lined up. There is nothing worse than going into John's workshop and finding the saw bench running ALMOST parallel to the wall. I could handle 45 degrees BUT ALMOST parallel......EW! Silly I know but none the less annoying.

3. I cry when I hear a beautiful song or see the glory that nature has to offer. Not sad crying but sheer astonishment or amazement at the beauty portrayed by a few words in a song or a beautiful bird.
4. I grew up with three brothers so will have a go at most things, not to be outdone by any boy!
5. I live in a little cottage in a large garden and don't wish for anything bigger.
6. I have been in the Australian Open Garden Scheme several years and enjoyed meeting other keen gardeners immensely. Gardeners truly are a lovely bunch of people and there is certainly no generation gap.
7. I have never been able to grow my nails. They are way too weak and the garden doesn't agree with them.
8. I start a new project before I finish the last one (much to my disgust).
9. I hate killing insects and am a bit of a greenie. I'd rather relocate a spider than kill it.
10. The thing that I'm most scared of is giant stick insects. I can handle spiders and snakes but please don't let that stick insect touch me
Now you know a few of my secrets...shhh...don't tell anyone.
I would love to pass this award on but I'm afraid most people I know are a little award shy so if you would like to play, you could just tell us ten things about yourself. That's always fun.
Take care, Angela.
What an exciting array of info.. life is never dull :) Marilyn xoxo

Hi Angela...love your 10 things...how is the shop going by the way...any pics would be great ..take care
ReplyDeleteI have neglected you for so long dearest Angela. It`s full spring here and I seem to spend all my time in the garden and no time in front of the computer. It`s a good way to spend my time I suppose but now I really have alot of catching up to do. How is your shop coming along? Don`t forget I will be first in line...at least in my thoughts and in cyberspace..
ReplyDeleteTake care
