Now getting the weekend blog out the way. Questions from Bev at Sunday Stealing. Great questions again, Bev.
1. Do you look forward to the spring?
No, because it means daylight saving, heat and hayfever.
2. Which area of the sciences do you enjoy the most?
I loved chemistry at school. Biology is pretty good too.
3. If you could own a classical statue in the form of any figure from myth, religion, or even modern fiction, who would you choose?
I'd love a copy of the Nike of Samothrace. I can stare at that for hours.
4. Do you have a good relationship with your mother?
It's not overly loving or close, but it is not bad either.
5. What is your favorite mythological story?
I loved The Odyssey when I studied it at uni.
6. If you put on a big feast, what would you serve?
Roast Lamb, veggies, mint sauce and all the trimmings. Then my version of boozy cassata.
7. How do you have fun? (What is your favorite 'Earthly Delight'?)
I read and watch movies as a rule.
8. Do you often look for hidden messages and meanings?
All the time.
9. Have you ever received an award or special position?
Nope. Team member of the week is about as good as it gets with me.
10. If a revolution was about to happen in your country, would you be part of it?

I moved overseas by myself at the age of 23. That took a bit of guts.
13. Do you care about your weight?
Yes.

Too slowly at the moment. But I should be pleased about this.
15. Do you prefer to stay in the shade?
Yes.
16. If you could have any mural on your ceiling, what would it look like?
Probably the moon and the stars.

Absolutely. I don't get out there enough.

Yes, but please don't tell anybody.

More an abstract and watercolour sort of girl.
21. Are you interested in social issues?

I love Nike. Great Choice!
Your choice of Nike reminded me of a statue that I LOVE. I don't know what it is called, but the Princess Charlotte memorial at St. George's chapel at Windsor Castle. I look at that statue and wonder...how did they DO that!!!
