Polly's 'Some things you may not know about me...'


some things you may not know about me are...
that i call the area where i live, the 'ghetto'

that i feel the need to read the number plate of every car i walk past, or 'something bad will happen'
that punctuation mistakes make me angry, especially misplaced apostrophes
that grammar mistakes make me angry

that when i read magazines i have to read every page, including the ads, or 'somethng bad will happen'

that i secretly wish i was an actress or a singer
that i am scared of birds and butterflies - in fact anything with wings
that i enjoy ironing

that it took fran and i about 5 days to work out the time difference between uk and italy after the clocks had changed
that i once watched bridget jones twice in a row with the ladle
that i find animals acting as humans very amusing indeed
that i think cats are really evil

that i make emilia listen to 'meglio stasera....' many times over while i memorise the words

  1. i have that number plate thing too and when i start a magazine article, i have to finish it, even if it's really dull, otherwise 'something bad will happen'.

  3. I really do think cat's are up to something. They are so sly - they will take over the world if we're not careful.

  4. Polly, because you keep mentioning 'Meglio stasera' I had to look it up. Then I listened to it and cannot get it out of my head...just the first line. Very jaunty song.

  6. You're right, but isn't it quite hard to get hold of. There were quite a few web pages about it. Cult stuff.

    the 46 isn't a real bus by the way - it's just actors and extras pretending.
