17 facts about me!

Seeing as Bex and others have been doing these 20 facts lists, I thought I'd throw in my 17 as well!

Here goes:

1. All first-born males in my paternal bloodline have Charles as a middle name.

2. I used to do a little stand-up whilst at Plymouth University.

3. I secretly like ABBA.

4. I have never taken any illeagal drugs whatsoever.

5. I wanted to be a pilot when younger, but failed the BA eye test.

6. I have a BSc (Hons) in Chemistry, and also in Business Management.

7. Favourite bands include Stones, Led Zep, Creation and Cream.

8. One of my wishes was to see the Grateful Dead with THE Wall of Sound.

9. I can't honestly think of a time when I have cried since 1994.

10. I rarely sleep more than 4 hours at night, and 1 hour during daylight.

12. John Entwistle was my all-time number 1 music hero.

13. I used to play cricket for a local club.

14. I love all aircraft and try to go to a few airshows each year (spare places on my tent pitch for RIAT at RAF Fairford this July 12-17!!)

15. I used to eat KitKats without removing the foil first. As a kid, I thought it'd help my iron intake!!

16. I love Private Eye, and shared a house with Ian Hislop's godson at Uni (oooh - talk about name-dropping!!)

17. I believe anyone who reads this and thinks they understand me needs their head examined sooner than me!!!!!!!

Take care people, and hope to chat to you soon!
