Closed. The boat sank, the sharks won.

My Big Sis Witchy Woo has tagged me with this meme from the foot of her stairs and these are the rules:

Give eight random facts/habits about yourself then tag eight other bloggers.

Thanks Witchy.

1. I watched the Moon landings. I was only a few months old but I watched them, apparently.
2. I’ve been digging up and eating potatoes straight from the garden - veg always tastes better that way although this so called Summer has been rubbish for crops. I try to grow all sorts as organically as I can and have had some fantastic crops from my garden, just not this year. All sorts of things have conspired against me from weather to personal health. but I have plans for working the soil this Autumn and changing the crop pattern for next year.
3. I hate the phrase "Global Warming" when I’m cold and feeling like putting the heating on in July. Call it Climate Change, that’s what it is.  This planet’s global climate goes through changes naturally, this time it’s happening a bit faster than usual is all. We’re not helping but I’m pretty convinced the planet will look after itself. The human race may well have to change how we live because resources we rely on are running out, but the planet will be fine. Anyway, that’s a whole post by itself so I’ll save it and find some Lovelock-Gaia references.
4. I’ve written 2 novels - one day you may be able to buy them in a local bookshop.
5. My most favourite sound in the whole world is the sound of my kids laughing.
6. My favourite smell is freshly cut grass, which goes with my favourite colour being green.
7. Hugs are the best things ever. A simple, warm, loving hug from a friend can turn a bad day into a good one. The power of human touch is wonderful. Hugs from children and friends - wonderful things.
8. Umm, can’t think of anything. Oh actually, yes I can. I can never resist these memes and feel as if I really have to do them but can’t think of anything interesting to say.

Oh hell, tag 8 more people?

Umm ok I tag: Teetering Slightly;  Sparkle*Matrix (who I don’t read as often as I mean to, sorry); Simply Wondered (coz he hasn’t blogged in forever); Imogen Howsen; Laurelin in the Rain; erm, can’t think of anyone else that I know and would be willing to be tagged/linked to on here. Anyone that fancies having a go feel free!
