8 Random Facts About me;
1. I wasn't always a lawyer - my first job after leaving college was teaching agriculture in a boys boarding school in Western Australia. I've also milked cows for a living, been a shepherd, cleaned toilets in a psychiatric hospital and been a maths tutor.
2. I can touch type at 36 wpm
3. I have a thing about food being better home cooked and home grown. When first married and in the first flush of domestic bliss I even made home made faggots - this involved mincing up sheeps lungs and has never been repeated even though they did taste good.
4. I have my best friend's parents ashes in my office - waiting for her to come back from Melbourne to scatter them.
5. I am the only female member of my family who isn't blonde - this has left deep mental scarring!
6. I once repossessed a jumbo jet at Manchester Airport - this was quite exciting and involved driving down a runway in one of those cars with the light on top. Then we stuck writs all over the cockpit of the plane and took the battery out of the engine!
7. I am lousy at sport - I'd love to be good at it, but I am undeniably rubbish. Hence forced into tap dancing and yoga as the only keep fit options for which I have any vauge aptitude.
8. It really annoys me that my husband is a brillant horseman and can't be bothered to keep and ride a horse....he's way better than me with out trying even slightly.
I tag....Frobisher, Pink Drama, Beast, Hey Lady,Tickers, Alice, (I don't know 8 Peopel will 6 do???)

You almost lost me at the 'rules' stage.
Until I realised you meant, write eight random facts about yourself and tag eight blogers.
Repro'ing a JJ sounds very exciting.
you have your best friend's parents ashes? sorta freaky and nice at the same time.
Done!
I *heart* the jumbo jet story.
Excellent.
