Sandi the tag monster!
Apologies for being away so long - life has been catching up with me!
Sandi has been a good blogging buddy and has sparked me back into posting again!!!
I have to post in 4's!!
4 Jobs I have had in my life:
1: Telephonist/receptionist for a car show room
2: Paper girl
3: Sales Assistant at Marks and Spencer (the worst job I've ever had)
4: Librarian at 5 different organizations including a university, a charity, a hospital, and a government research council!
Movies I have/would watch over and over again
1: The Lady Vanishes (1938) Margaret Lockwood, Michael Redgrave, wonderful film - FABULOUS!
2: The Love Letter, I really like this film, the second hand bookshop - who wouldn't want to live in a place called Loblolly-by-the-sea!!!!
3: Any of the Die Hards, sometimes you just need explosions!
4: Meet me in St Louis - I just love this film, love, love, love it
This was one of the hardest categories for me, I could easily choose 10!!!
Places I have lived
1: Hale in Cheshire
2: Headingley in Leeds
3: Woodhouse in Leeds
4: Liverpool - various locations!!!
People I want to bitch slap right into the middle of next week
1: Sandi - am so with you when it comes to Paris Hilton!!!!
2: A friend's boyfriend, he is a patronising, officious, slimey, sycophantic, obsequious, toadying git. The only reason I shan't is that he appears to be devoted to her and will do anything for her. He's still a git though
3: Someone who works for the same organisation as me, who has a habit of taking the credit for things he does not have the right to, in front of the people who should get the credit and I really dislike him. I actually do wish to kick him severely, however, like my friends, boyfriend, I don't think I'd be able to stop, it is a good job I'm not armed this is all I'm saying!!!
4: People who don't know me, who patronisingly call you Luv, or darlin' or worse, girl - ARGHHHHHHHHHHH
Sandi - I don't think you'd realise how much vitriol you would expose with this did you?!!!!
People that email me regularly
1: Sophie
2: Steve
3: Ma
4: Clare

Not a huge TV watcher but
1: Northern exposure (I know has finished!)
2: Doctor Who and Torchwood - they are classed as one really...!
3: Jeeves and Wooster

TV shows I watch Nonfictional
Oooh hard - erm.... I think that I shall put the radio shows that I listen to instead!!!
1: I'm sorry I haven't got a clue - Humph. Littleton - legend!!!
2: A good read - got some good book suggestions from that
3: Paul Temple - can't you just hear the Coronation Express playing now by Timothy...!!!!
4: Radio 4 in general in the background - woman's hour - good too!!
Places I have visited
1: France - lots of places all over!
2: Germany - the same!
3: Ireland - both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland!
4: Isles of Scilly
Favorite Foods
1: Kleftiko - love all Greek food - but in the best Greek restaurant in Liverpool Eureka - it is AMAZING!!!
2: Hot pot or Scouse!!!
3: Brussel sprouts - or cabbage - fried with pancetta, garlic, onions and mushrooms!
4: A good fruit cake!
Where I want to be right now
1: Where I am now - at Ma's with my family (apart from Bertie - who could come and visit too!!)
2: In Scotland somewhere wild in a little cottage with a fire, the radio, fresh bread baking in the oven and a nice hairy man in a jumper.... :-)
3: London, in the Ritz having afternoon tea with my friends
4: New York, visiting the museums and galleries and and every bookshop and fabric store known to man!

Thanks a bunch Sarah. I know it's me birfdi and all but you didn't need to get me a pressie. OK, I will do it, but tomorrow because I just blogged about retirement etc.,
Actually I'm glad you blogged because I was just on my way to say, "Tea Break is Over". Way too long without hearing from you.
Cheers

Now that was great...I came in to give you a piece of my mind about the malingering...and here you are up and ready and I just loved your answers! And as to the gentleman who takes credit...he'd get away with that not once if he stole my thunder! I've been known to throw a bolt or two...glad to see you back in here...you know you could come to the States for a vacation...I'd give you bed and board...you might have to chunk out the odd cat or two, but the rooms are clean and the food is good...
Sandi
Love the list..... and I am impressed you got it down to 4 films. Is the Love Letter an old or new film?
