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

Some things you may not know about me.......

Just like my sister I NEVER iron anything - EVER!
Also like my sister I don't like breaking rules or the law for fear of being told off - it's quite scary how much I related to this when reading her list!

When I was in primary school I got hit in the head with a cricket bat when I was backstop when we were playing rounders - a few years later when I went to secondary school the same boy threw a cricket ball at the same place in my head - both times I passed out! I think he had it in for me? Actually whilst on the subject of being hit by balls - also whilst at Hampstead I got knocked out by a basket ball in my temple and got hit in the eyebrow with a ball from inside a computer mouse - out of all these injuries I would have to say the mouse ball was the worst and most painfull!

I never walk under road signs on the pavement
I never walk across three consecutive drains in the pavement
Despite the whole world not understanding this - I hate the smell of bacon
After having the rubella vaccine at 13 - I got german measles at 14
I think about my wedding alot - although this mostly reminds me how utterly single I am so I try not too!
I always wear matching underwear.
I hate birds
I still watch Twin Peaks, on really old VHS's, I know most of the lines now, but still discover new things, and I have always fancied bobby, quite a lot.
I once tried a cat biscuit and licked my cat to see what it felt like!
I have a really bad phobia of public toilets, anywhere!
I know what my childrens names will be, including accompanying middle names! and I will never tell anyone until they are born - except my future husband, who of course does not exist yet.
I always lie about my life to cab drivers.
I know most celebrity gossip!
When I was younger - if me and kim went to buy alcohol we always bought catfood and tampons at the same time, when we didn't need them, because we thought it made us loook older

I actually hate cupcakes..........just kidding!!!!!
