C. Chore you dislike: Ironing (just so boring, so I haven't done any for about 10 years - luckily my hubby likes it)

D. Dogs: No - more a cat person.  Had dog's as a child.  Overtime I have learned that I like dogs that are trained and obedient, but scatty dogs make me nervous

E. Essential Start to your Day: Waking Up?  I guess a cup of tea but I could take it or leave it!

F. Favourite Colour:  Green

R. Just noticed there isn't an R in any of the links I followed from sisters post?

S. Siblings:  One older Sister Vix (Vicki).  She has lived very far away for a lot of our ADULT life, but now it is my turn.  I live 5 hours away but at least in the same country.  I so wish I was closer but we do love it here.  Please someone invent teleporting - PING and I would be there!

T. Time you Wake Up:  Usually around 8am (I know shout at me now all those with children (see K) but I do work funny hours into the night...

U. Underwear:  Er yes, always?

V. Vegetable you don't like:  Artichokes...seriously what is the point

W. What makes you late: I hate being late
