Lots of Things
Yes, still here. Still blogging. But also still lazy when blogging. Two weeks or so ago the EasyJetsetter tagged me with the Seven Things meme. So far I hadn't got round to do it. Then today Neville Hobson tagged me with Four Things. So I'm just going to combine the whole things thing into one. Here we go:
Some Things To Do Before I Die
- Climb Ben Nevis on a clear and sunny day
- Celebrate my 100th birthday with a wee dram of Islay single malt (from my own cask)
- Visit at least 100 Munros (as I doubt that I'll find the time to become a compleater)
- Completely lose any traces of a German accent (I can at least try)
Some Things I Cannot Do
- Wiggle my ears
- Play an instrument
- Resist a good Islay Single Malt
Some Jobs I've had
- Free local newspaper delivery boy (long long ago...)
- Motorcoach Tour operations (Yes, I helped to fulfil dream holidays. At least I'd like to think so)
- Finance Analyst (someone had to do it)
- Intel Inside® Program Operations Manager (Yes, to an extent it was my fault that you got to hear the Intel bong and saw the Intel Inside® logo all over the place)
Some Places I've Been to on Holiday
Some Things That Attract Me to... books
- Good stories
- Getting lost in a dream world
- Knowledge
Some Favorite Dishes
- A nice Islay beef fillet
- Chinese Crispy Duck
- Scholle mit Bratkartoffeln (Plaice with fried potatos, quite a few places in northern Germany serve it)
- Kohl und Pinkel
Some Things I Say
- Moooin (when I'm in Germany)
- **** ***
- ******
- Yes, I swear too much.
Some Websites I Visit Daily
- Circuit (main intranet site with company news, but only because it doesn't have a RSS feed)
- BBC News, despite RSS feed
- Technorati, mainly because the RSS feeds fail too often and I use the Watchlist
Some Books That I Love
Some Movies That I've Loved (at different times and in no particular order) / Some Movies I Can Watch Over and Over
Some TV Shows I Love to Watch
Erm, nice try. But I don't have a television. I guess this one will therefore remain unanswered for lack of content.
Some Places I'd Rather Be
Some People To Tag (in no particular order)
Do I have to? Hasn't everyone already done this thing? If you haven't, consider yourself tagged.
