4 MEME

Erica has tagged me for this 4 Meme. Although I've done one very similar, it was some months ago so I thought it wouldn't hurt to see if I've actually done, read, seen or heard anything memorable in my life. So, here goes:


4 Jobs I've had in my life:

1. Milking cows - twice a day for about 14 years.

2. Shop assistant on the jewellery counter in G.J.Coles (now David Jones) in Bourke St. Melbourne

3. Part-time schoolteacher - I thought that would be the last thing I would ever do but I loved it.

4. University examination invigilator - one of the most mind-numbingly boring jobs in creation, probably second only to operating the stop/slow signs on the roadworks sites.

4 Movies I could watch over and over - there are very few movies that I can watch over and over, no matter how much I enjoyed them. At the moment, I'm hard pressed to stay awake long enough to see any movie once. But some that I have watched more than once in the past are:

1. Witness.

2. No Way Out.

3. Goodbye Mr Chips.

4. Shawshank Redemption.

4 Websites I visit regularly. I'm not sure if this means websites or blogs, so ...

1. Classic FM - 24 hour a day classical music from London.

2. Thomas and Friends - (Thomas the Tank Engine and I 'visit' it many times a day when my grandson is staying here for the day.)

3. The Purple Giraffe and Shells and Beans - my daughters' blogs.

4. Colors of the Garden - Kerri's site.

4 Favourite Foods.

1. Peach and Mango Frozen Yoghurt.

2. Good Thai food.

3. Eggs and bacon.

4. Stewed apples and cream.

4 Places I'd rather be right now. I'm quite happy where I am right now, but these are all places I've been or things I've done which I enjoyed.

1. Roaming the Cotswolds (or nearly anywhere) in England.

2. Riding on the River Cat on the Brisbane River.

3. Gazing in wonder at the Grand Canyon.

4. Lying in a warm, cosy bed listening to the wind and the rain.

4 Books I read over and over. I never read books over again but I should because I forget most of the story as soon as I've finished it, though not enough to make me read it again.

4 Songs I could (and do) listen to over and over - no problem here about listening to music over and over. In fact, I repeat them so often that I no longer hear them.

1. 'Love Changes Everything' - Michael Ball.

2. 'You Raise Me Up' - Aled Jones.

3. 'Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring' - Josh Groban.

4. 'Calon Ian' - Katherine Jenkins.

4 Reasons Why I Blog

1. Because Michelle told me to.

2. I'm an incurable 'sticky beak' and I like to know what's happening in other peoples' lives.

3. I now have many international friends and I'm planning to visit them all.

4. It saves me from doing housework.
