In true chain-blogging style I’ve been tagged by Paulski over at Northsouthmedia for the’ 7 Things You Didin’t Know About Me’  post. I’m not normally one for doing these things and forwarding them on BUT as Ryan says, I’ll do anything for a link! Well, it was something along those lines anyway…

The rules are:

• Link to your original tagger(s) and list these rules in your post. (see above)
• Share seven facts about yourself in the post. (see below)
• Tag seven people at the end of your post by leaving their names and the links to their blogs. (see below)
• Let them know they’ve been tagged. (you’ll just have to trust trackbacks and such)
• Remind them if they don’t post withing 24 hours they’re kitten will run away

And here’s what you didn’t know about me.

1. I once knocked myself out in ASDA. I was climbing a loading bay gate and after being shouted at to get dow my Mum was daft enough to turn her back. I climbed back up, fell off and spent three days in Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.
2. I took part in camel racing at Alford Cavalcade. I came last and banged my coccyx which resulted in me not being able to sit down properly for weeks. Just as it healed I jumped on the ‘spinny disc’ at school and damaged it again. There is not other pain like it.
3. Everyone in my family is (or was before marriage) a Foster. My mum and her sister both married non-related Foster’s. When I was younger I couldn’t work out why some people had cousins with different names.
4. My Brothers and I used to have a hamster, a Lego boat and a paddling pool. I don’t want to get into the whole sorry story but suffice to say that Hammy the Hamster (yup, that was his name) is no longer among us.
5. I once got a prize in school purely for charitable reasons. I was in a competition to recite Rabbie Burns but in my English/Irish/Scots-hybrid accent it came out terribly and the prize was the headteacher taking pity on me. Not that I care, I won a quid.
6. In Pr 7 I was in a class of 6 kids. I am still in touch with three of them.
7. I learnt to drive on an old, disused WW2 airfield where my Dad would encourage me to “floor it”. He stopped saying this the day I passed my test.

So that’s it, now onto the lucky luck kids who are about to get a tagging!

• Calum Macleod – Web Design Lewis
• Ryan Carlton – At his own site that he never writes on despite it being a birthday pressie, maybe this will encourage him.
• James Monaghan – Because the only thing I know about him is he’s Paul’s partner (in a purely business sense)
• Stewart Traquair – Good Music, go have a wee listen
• Laura Cuch – Cool photography
