I have just done one of these so thought I'd post it.


What time is it?
20:51
What's your full name?
Michelle Elizabeth Tanner (nee Smith)
What are you most afraid of?
Dying young (I may have already passed "young" but I want to see my children reach adulthood and become self-sufficient. Then I'll want to watch my grandchildren reach aduhood and become self-sufficient.... )
What's the most recent movie you’ve seen?
Death at a Funeral (last night at Sky City movies Chartwell, Hamilton). Hilarious. And I love Matthew MacFadden
Where were you born?
Kent and Canterbury Hospital, Kent, UK. As were my children. Not because I never moved away but, by chance, I ended up back near Canterbury at that stage of my life.
Favorite food?
I'm assuming that chocolate goes without saying and therefore I can choose something else as well. Ice cream, but only particular ones and chocolate Hobnobs
What's your natural hair color?
Look at my head! (Brunette with the odd grey hair. But only if you look really close!)
Ever been a Neat Freak?
No. (My daughters will be choking and spluttering if they read this.). OK maybe a bit...sometimes.
Ever been skinny dipping?
Of course. Hasn't everyone? We live rural, no neighbours within sight and have a pool......!!! Oh if you've never done it you must.
Love someone so much it made you cry?
My husband, my children. However I cry at EVERYTHING!!
Been in a car accident?
Yes. When I was 7 months pregnant a car pulled out from a junction and I hit him in the side. My seatbelt failed and I hit the steering wheel fracturing my sternum.
Croutons or bacon bits?
Bacon bits
Favorite day of the week?
Friday. With the whole weekend ahead of me.
Favorite restaurant
A Thai reasturant in Sandton City, Johannesberg. Can't remember the name of it!
Favorite Flower?
Don't have one but gerbas rate right up there. I hate the smell of lillies.
Favorite sport to watch?
Rugby, rugby, rugby and Wimbledon. Not having TV means I see almost none of them! The big matches we get to watch at friends though, plus the odd one at Waikato stadium.
Favorite drink?
Tea (PG tips), G'nT and good quality iced coffee (in that order)
Favorite ice cream?
Tesco's cookies and cream (Now reduced to a once in 5 yearly treat)
Warner Brothers/Disney?
Disney
Ever been on a ship?
The tall ship the R Tucker Thompson in the Bay of Islands, for a day in appalling weather with the Hyamses when they came to NZ.
What color is your bedroom carpet?
Cream
How many times did you fail your driver's test?
1 (I think). It was so long ago.
Before this one, from whom did you get your last e-mail?
Bridget
What do you do when you are bored?
What's 'bored'?
Bedtime?
Every day I aim for a 9pm bed, like today. It's now 9.15pm!! I probably get to bed between 10 and 10.30pm
Who will respond to this e-mail the quickest ?
I've no idea!
Who will least likely respond?
Elly
Who is the person that you are most curious to see their responses?
Everyone's will be interesting. Louise please send yours to me as well as Helen.
Favorite TV shows?
See above. On the rare periods of my adult life when I have had a TV I have loved MASH, Cracker, Castaway (the first series)Heartbeat, Hamish Macbeth and Prime Suspect. I have never seen an episode of Coronation Street which is beyond the comprehension of most kiwis who seem obsessed with the show!
Last person you went to dinner with?
Lunch with Eric and the girls yesterday. Dinner with the committee from the local RSA (sorry, Retired Services Association) of which Eric is the legal advisor, a few weeks ago. A mysterty tour. We ended up at 'Out in the Styx'.
Park or Zoo?
Neither. African bush
What are your favorite colors?
Anything bright
How many tattoos do you have?
Are you mad??? They are the grossest thing ever. Not new but what do they look like when you're 60 - YUK! Henna tattoos, now that's different, especially when you have an artistic husband.
How many pets do you have?
If you don't count the calves, cows, geese, chooks and sheep 3.... Inca (black lab), Rust (brown lab) and Freckles (our friendly cow), oh and Feral the cat - that's 4.
Something you would like to do before you die?
A hot air balloon ride at dawn - in Africa, and go to Jellystone National park. I'd also like to do some voluntary work in rural Africa.
Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Do I care?
Have you ever been to Hawaii?
No, and don't have any huge desire to. I'd prefer South America or the Antartic. I'll never go to the antartic though as I don't believe tourists should go there.
Anything in life you regret doing or not doing?
Lots but as long as we learn from our mistakes then they could be seen to have been worth it. I wish I had intervened in events one afternoon in 1973 that would have meant my brother did not die. I don't blame myself. I just wish I had been a bossier big sister and made him come back.
How many people are you sending this e-mail?
Don't know yet.
Time this survey ended?
21.38
