Riggwelter has just tagged me so here you go!
Here are the rules:"Each person tagged gives 7 random facts about themselves. Those tagged need to write in their blogs the 7 facts, as well as the rules of the game. You need to tag seven others and list their names on your blog. You have to leave those you plan on tagging a note in their comments so they know that they have been tagged and to read your blog."
My seven things:
1) I used to drive mainline trains to London and was the only woman driver at my depot.
2) When I was younger I did some 'adventurous' things. I used to be a boson for the Ocean Youth Club (now called the Ocean Youth Trust) and spent a month sailing round the Irish Sea. And I used to go Paragliding until I flew into a barbed wire fence and hurt my leg.
3) My Taid (welsh for Granddad) when tracing our Family Tree thinks we are descendants of Morgan the Pirate.
4) I dislike feet (except baby / toddler ones!).
5) I love walking on pebbly beach and picking up pretty pebbles and even did a GCSE in Geology as I like stones and fossils so much.
6) I proudly consider myself Welsh even though technically I'm half Welsh, a quarter Irish (North) and a quarter English and have spent more time living over the border in England than I've lived in Wales which is a very sad thought. We'll have to move back when DH & I retire (a looong way off!!)
7) I was born with a hole in my heart and had a heart Murmur until I was 3 both of which healed up on their own and have caused me no problems.
Okay, whose turn next? I tag....

So many unusual things have cropped up in this meme! I'd never have pegged you as a former train driver, lol!
Yup, you have certainly given me a few sleepless nights with some of you adventures and I will never forget the first and last time I watched you para gliding and falling on to that wire fence !!!
Ah the joys of motherhood LOL, atta girl, go for it and we will wait to see if 'little one' will be as adventurous :)
Something tells me she will ;) It's that pirate part of us coming out
This was totally interesting to read through, thanks for sharing! Wowza, your paragliding experiece sounds quite painful - I'm glad nothing more did happen! But it sure must have been a great thing to do - I'm pondering whether I should try it since years and years and, as I know me, will end up trying it one day!
