25 Random Things About Heather

This is a facebook game that is interesting, the idea is to write 25 random things about yourself and in facebook you tag 25 friends as an invitation for them to follow suit. Here of course the famous Multiply Inbox does that for you ;)

1. Heather knows she's too old for all this facebook lark, and all those who agree can stop reading now.
2. Heather has been traced from Hmacca via H******bells to H******momo, so much for secret internet identities. I wonder if G****** is still safe?
3. Heather is disproportionately annoyed by friend rejections. I'm not planning to stalk C, in fact I'm not that interested! Still pissed off though.
4. Heather's secret power is Invisibility. (Actually it's not that amazing - all 'femmes d'un certain age' are invisible. It's still cool though)
5. Heather broke her arm when she was (about) 4 and distinctly remembers walking along a high wall, falling and breaking her arm. People who were there seem to think it was broken by her sister while carrying her up the stairs. False memory syndrome huh, how could all these people have got it so wrong?
6. The arm may well have been an accident but said sister used to bite Heather hard and then found it funny that she stopped crying when shushed and given a cuddle.
7. Actually while we're dredging up memories of sibling abuse, my sisters also used to find it hilarious to give me cold tea to drink and call it flat Coca Cola. (I still don't like Coca Cola)
8. Even so Heather still believes it is better to have siblings than to be an only child.
9. Heather spends 8 and a half hours a week sitting on buses travelling to work, and nearly 4 hours hanging around bus stops waiting for buses. That's more than nearly 4 weeks a year!
10. That I sat and worked that out says more about me than I want you to know
11. Heather has less patience than she needs
12. A week later and I am still less than halfway through ...
13. Heather once worked in a shoe shop
14. Heather hated the Brownies and had to be forced back there by her mother
15. Heather wanted to join the Guides but was too embarrassed to roll up in a Brownie uniform with no badges on it
16. Heather never had the wit to join the Guides anyway and pretend she had had a glorious Brownie career but had misplaced her uniform in the move
17. Heather scored a glorious 20/20 in the Guardian spelling quiz today link - go on, bet you can't equal that!
18. Heather has loathed Valentine's day all her life
19. The high point of my first day behind the perfume counter at Boots was when I swung round and sent a tall arrangement of glass shelves artfully stacked with exotic perfumes crashing to the floor
20. The low point of my Boots career was being dumped by Christmas card at the till. (This was before they invented text messages)
21. There was a dusky pink pair of shoes in the shoe shop I must have tried on a hundred times, but I left before I could decide whether to buy them. They were beautiful though.
22. When I was 22 I was often complimented on my 2 delightful little girls. (I wonder what happened to them?)
23. At 23 I passed my driving test.
24. Heather knows fine well that youngest children are favoured and has benefited from that all her life.
25. Heather is mightily relieved to have reached 25!
