My next 5 Q's1. What is your favourite childhood memory? Staying with my Great-Aunty Mary & uncle Hughie & feeling lonely one night & sharing their bed with my Aunt who I adored. I have visions of her lifting her humungous boobs to do up her skirt!
2. Folder or a scruncher? Folder
3. Do you travel by transport or drive to work? (past tense if you are currently not working) No public transport to speak of where I live, so drove.
4. First perfume you ever wore? I honestly don't remember the first but my favourite was (is) Caleche by Hermes. I don't wear it any more as I am so allergic to so many perfumes that I feel I shouldn't wear any in case mine affects someone else.
5. Favourite Cohen fruit? Mango, mango, mango
Have fun!TTFNAnnie Lusion

My husband- no question. He's a darling!
I think a trip to Vietnam where I had trouble with the heat, had to ask for a seat extension on the plane, couldn't find clothes to fit & just felt huge in comparison to everyone else. I did not feel negative about myself though, just decided I didn't want to feel that way again next time we travel.
The seat belt extension on Vietnam Airlines!
Only in that he wants me to be healthy. He has loved me regardless.
Almost all Vietnamese food. Can't think of anything in particular.

1. Have you ever driven a motorbike (not just ridden on one)?
2. Which are easier to raise - girls or boys? Or does it matter?
3. If you had time over again with your children as very small, what one thing would you do differently?
4. Are you an animal lover?
5. Are you Type A or Type B (as in driven and anxious, or chilled and go with the flow)?
 
PS - Ha ha Cate - loved that bit about Vietnam and needing to lose weight. I had a similar experience in Philippines, being asked if I was "pregnant" repeatedly, not fitting in anywhere, into tricycles. By Western standards I wasn't even all that large. I came home utterly mortified! My worst experience was a lovely young teenager saying "Auntie... can I ask you a question?" (Oh no, the dreaded "personal" question introduction...) "What is the secret of your great fat?". I was probably only 15 kg overweight at the time. Imagine if I'd gone back 35kg overweight! Ugggghhhh!!!
 
1. Have you ever driven a motorbike (not just ridden on one)? Yes everyday.. i live on a farm
2. Which are easier to raise - girls or boys? Or does it matter? Girls, boys have so so much energy (but are still super fun to have around as they keep you on your toes)
3. If you had time over again with your children as very small, what one thing would you do differently? My children are small (2yr old and 5 month old) and the only thing i would do differently is maybe ask for drugs during the labours...lol.. kidding...im glad i had them drug free but hell, who invented labour anyway!!!
4. Are you an animal lover? yes except cats..rats...roos..rabbits.. feral pigs or any farming pest
5. Are you Type A or Type B (as in driven and anxious, or chilled and go with the flow)? A (big time) but am learning to be more B (slowley)
