My 7 Things

I was taged by the Aussie Jamie Hemmett, (the cheeky git) to share 7 things with folks:

  1. I’m Irish, but don’t have the typical Irish surname. I was born in England and moved over here when I was 18 months old. My mother is Irish and my dad is English, and I get the unusual surname from my gradad on my dads side. I’ve not a word of Polish, for this I’m I do apologise.
  2. I don’t like heights, but don’t mind getting on aeroplanes. I was in Rome recently and in the Vatican chapel and didn’t enjoy being up so high in it, so much so I was clinging to the wall.
  3. The best thing at college I ever did was join Ents Crew and Skynet. I made my closest and best friends here. Love them to pieces, even if some of them drive me slightly crazy.
  4. Every evening before I leave work I tidy my desk and put things away in the right places and put pens in holder. I like a neat desk to work at. Yes I know this is somewhat crazy!
  5. My favourite place to be is Lahinch. I’m the happiest and most relaxed here. I miss it when I’m in Dublin
  6. It was Niall Merrigan (nm), and Hugh McGauran (cantona) to introduce to me Skynet and the world of open source.
  7. My favourite colour is Yellow, then purple, it varies on my mood :)

Eh…  Rugby is a given :)   You all know that

    3. I once met Ponch from CHiPs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHiPs)

    4. I started skateboarding when I was 10 – something I kept up to the last year or so, just can’t find the time right now :-(

  5. I’m a ridiculous desker, I’ve got a mini pharmacy and I try to tidy up, but there’s always old scripts and just stuff all the time!
