Memorable Firsts

Hi

I was tagged to do this meme by Sally Whittle from Who's The Mummy.co.uk.  Yes, that same lady who hosts the MAD awards, and runs Tots 100 and runs Blog Camp.... and I don't know what else (as I don't know everything).... I am very honoured as she seems to think I will come up with something interesting... so the gauntlet has firmly been laid down. She also prohibited us from getting all smaltzy about our babies...

First snog: Cormak when I was 4 years old.   I think we used to catch ease other on purpose in Kiss Chase - bet they don't play that today in the crazy politically correct world we now live in!  I moved house half way through my first year of school so it was not to last......

First job: During secondary school in the early years we were not allowed out during our  lunch breaks, and in the morning break everyone would be hungry, so I used to sell crisps.  I'd buy 12 packs and bring them in and sell them individually - crazy I know! But I am a little mad! I am the sort of person who would LOVE to go on the Apprentice :-)

My real first job was as a Cashier in Co-op where I pretended to be 16 when I was only 15.  Every time they asked for my NI card I pretended I could not find it.  Probably the only lie I have ever told in my life as I have a complex about being honest and can't even tell white lies!

First crush: A boy called Christopher. I was obsessed about him and even sent him Valentine's Cards.  I was only 11 or 12 years old and I don't think he'd even started liking girls yet :-)

First hangover: It was at University and I remember the night we got drunk, a Science student asked us if we were under the affluence of incohol.  I thought it was the funniest thing I'd ever ever heard and kept repeating it and laughing for the rest of the night.  When we got back to our digs I fell over on the floor with my skirt in the air. Nice!

First gig: Michael Jackson's BAD tour when it was sponsored by Pepsi.

First blog: My first blog was called Liska Life.  It was started at a time when I was doing long hours at work and the name was short for Liska Get A Life! For a few months it worked and my blog was about things other than work, like going swimming etc...... It was very light hearted and I loved it.

Now I have to think of 4 of my own...

First computer: When I was about 11 or 12 my Aunt bought me a ZX Spectrum Plus (was the word Sinclair in there too?).  All of my my mates had Amstrad 64s.   If I remember it was just one or the other.

First tipple: I used to drink malibu and lemonade but the queues at the bar at Uni were too long, so I moved onto pints.... I know! How unladylike... and I never looked back till I gave it all up when we were TTC...

First dance song at wedding: Prince's Adore.

First medal: For Irish Dancing although I didn't keep it up for long.

I haven't got the energy to tag people, so if you are reading this and fancy it, jump on the bandwagon....

I'm off to my bed.

Liska xx
