oh dear, i've been meme-ed...

the rules:
Each player starts with 8 random facts/habits about themselves.
People who are tagged, write a blog post about their own 8 random things, and post these rules.
At the end of your post you need to tag 8 people and include their names.
Don’t forget to leave them a comment and tell them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

8 random things about me:

1) one of my most favourite things in the world is writing lists (which is why i couldn't resist this meme).

2) i don't own a television.

3) i was in the audience of rte's 'saturday night with miriam' last weekend (it was surreal! see can you spot me here).

4) my radio station of choice is phantom fm.

5) i drink my coffee weak, black and often but only before lunch so that it won't keep me awake at night.

6) i was born in the same hospital in caterbury as orlando bloom (though i beat him there by about two and a half months).

7) when ordering in a restaurant i scan the menu for the words 'cheese', 'cream', 'garlic' and order whichever items have the highest occurrance of these.

8) the last book i read was 'oryx & crake' by margaret atwood and it was one of the best books i've read in ages

in turn, i tag:
