I’ve been tagged by Burro and it would be most rude if I didn’t reply. So here’s five things you may, or may not know about me.
I may be living in London now, but I’m from all over the place. Born in Carlisle, moved down to Bristol when I was three and then Lymington when I was 11. My family’s surname originates from Devon (where my Dad’s side of the family are all from) and it means ‘rabbit wood’, which I think is lovely.
Down south, my dad is known by old people the region wide as he’s a reporter for the local news.
If you want a tour of the House of Commons and a drink on the Terrace, I’m your girl.
Once on holiday when I was little, while walking amongst the fells of the Lake District, I fell into a bog. It’s quite scary being neck high in cold, dark water.
Dispite owning a Wii, a DS and a Playstation2 and doing the odd thing on the PC, I’m actually rubbish at playing video games. So bad, in fact, that when visiting a videogame expo a couple of years back, I got laughed at 12 times by various teenagers (the worst kind of mocking) while trying out various games.
So there you have it. I could have come up with something slightly more interesting, but it’s the first day back at work and my brain’s slightly frazzled. So who to tag? Hmmm…

Yay! What a cool dad you have! And is that offer for the tour of the HoC for real? I only ask as me & the mistress are coming down to the Big Smoke soon to visit her brother (who lives in the Barbican which is cooler than I ever imagined) and my sister (who lives somewhere near the Oval). First, I have to try and get over my renewed fear of the tube – the last time we came down was before some bastards had blown then up.
I’ve always wanted to live in the Barbican, it reminds me of some 60s sci-fi show.
And the offer for the tour is real and you and the Mistress are more than welcome to come down. I can only do non sitting Friday’s though. You’ve got my email right? Let me know the dates you’re down and I’ll see what I can do.
Wow! You’re a star! It won’t be for a while yet – have to book the MRI, etc (long story but nowt to worry about). I’ll be in touch
