I follow many other bloggers especially Irish Bloggers. I came across this great post on the blog at https://aoifeweefa.com/2015/07/14/10-things-you-didnt-know-about-me/ and at the footer of that post was some questions for others to do, so here you are, 10 things about me.
These are my answers to those exact questions.
10 things about me
1. What’s your party trick?
I can play any Queen song on the piano, in the same style as on the record … you name it, I will play it. My dream would be to play keyboards in a Queen Tribute Band but I still fulfil my dream by being the keyboardist in the Classic Rock Covers band “Custom 160” based in the south/south-east of Ireland.
On a more light-hearted note, I can also have full and understandable conversations in a full-on Donald Duck voice. I even did it to Donald Duck at Disney and got a great reaction.
2. Cats or Dogs?
Sorry, I can’t do this, I love both cats and dogs equally. However, after recently trying to rescue 2 kittens who scratched and bit me quite badly, I am leaning a bit more towards dogs.
3. What is your most embarrassing moment?
Trying Karaoke with a song which I knew was too high …. it was far too high to reach. Thankfully in the days before camera phones.
4. If you could meet one person living or dead who would it be?
As a life long Queen fan, for the living person I would love to meet Brian May, and dead would have to be the amazing frontman, Freddie Mercury.
5. How long can you hold your breath for? (yes, you have to time yourself)
1:23:77 – 1 minute 23 seconds .77 – I knew I was over a minute but that surprised me.
6. Why do you blog?
I have had a website since 1998 and in that time blogging sort of passed me out until about 2010 when I started small scale. I just love having my own personal space on the web. When I find something I like / dislike or have an opinion on I feel I can then say it on my own site with the understanding that this is my opinion based on my experiences. I love seeing people visit the site and over the past year, I have had over 100,000 visitors to the website this year.
7. What’s your favourite TV programme?
At the moment The Big Bang Theory but will watch re-runs of Fraiser, Friends and Star Trek the Next Generation any time.
8. How many brothers & sisters do you have and are they older or younger?
2 younger sisters, no brothers.
9. Do you live in a city or in the countryside?
I live in Waterford City, I don’t think I would live in the countryside … unless it was in New Zealand ( I could do that !)
10. What was the last thing you bought other than food?
Quite ordinary really… Diesel and a Daily Millions ticket (which I did not win on).
