Playing tag

Nic tagged me, so here is 8 random facts about me.
But first, the rules:

1: Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
2: People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (about their eight things) and post these rules.
3: At the end of your blog, Chose people to get tagged and list their names.  Or don’t.  Who’s going to check?

Well, quite.

1) I used to be a chorister - complete with the daftie outfit and everything. I get all nostalgic at Christmas remembering the services I used to sing at over the Christmas period.

2) I'm a Nintendo fangirl. I have owned every console since the SNES and even borrowed my neighbour's NES for a while and discovered the joy of Super Mario Bros 3, when I was 9. I didn't have a Virtual Boy though. Although I'm not sure anyone did in the UK. However, I've never bought a console at release and rarely buy a game on release day.

3) Since having Toby I have become a tea addict and find it hard to function without a morning cuppa. I like English breakfast blend in the morning and Assam or Ceylon in the afternoon. However, at home I tend to stick to a fairtrade blend teabag because it tends to be just me drinking it.

4) I have an underactive thyroid. I take thyroxine to correct it and have done for the last year.

5) As has been documented here before, I am a big lover of the soft drink root beer. To most people here it tastes like TCP but to me it is just scrummy.

6) I am not a film watcher. I have to be really interested to bother to watch something - can't truly remember the last time I went to the cinema, probably Nov 2005? - but if I like it I will watch it on DVD repeatedly. I am a bit obsessive compulsive in my viewing. I don't watch a lot of stuff but I will devour things if I like them. I'd happily watch QI for hours and hours. The all-weekender things that lazy TV schedulers do? They're made for me.

7) I'm currently reading 'The Interpretation of Murder' for a book club I've set up. Review to follow.

8) I hardly listen to music anymore. I listen to a lot of audiobooks, podcasts and radio 4/7. My last audiobook purchase was Bill Bryson's short book on Shakespeare. I listen to stuff on the bus or just before I go to bed on my ipod.

Okay, so who to tag?
