Random fact about yourself

[under the ivy]

Yes and no, we can't have eggs in our house and if anyone around me is eating eggs I have to walk away because I can't be near them but my friends and family don't eat them around me. It affected me a lot more when I was younger and I did (still do) get teased a bit about it but I've learned to manage it more now that I'm in my late 20s!

I’m like that about baked beans! Have to be in a separate room, can’t touch the plate they’ve been on, I try to avoid them in the supermarket too

Ooh ooh i have another one. Me and my husband married in secret. Only our 2 witnesses knew.
We had a night out together the night before (joint stag n hen do ), got up next morning got dressed, bus into town, married at registry office at 11am, hit weatherspoons for a breakfast afterwards, then rang family and friends made our announcement then invited everyone to join us in spoons. Home drunk and asleep by 9pm

Aw I truly love this. It’s exactly what I want. Just no hassle, simple and no fuss.

Hmm. Fact about me? I went to Vegas all “hmm, it’s really not my thing and I doubt I’ll enjoy it. Soo tacky.” ... and ended up being banned from Binions, had their bathrooms closed for a deep clean due to the devil projectile vomit and was escorted out the casino in a wheelchair through Fremont Street.

What can I say? Vegas was a hell of a place. Clearly my place

I drink tea through a straw 🫖

Is that to stop your teeth from staining, or another reason?

One of my side hustles is as a "voice artist". I (apparently) have a sexy, soothing voice. Weirdly, I was scouted when I was chatting to a supermarket checkout lady one day and the man one aisle over heard me ... and the rest is history. It's a great gig - I get flown to another city, picked up by a car service and taken to a studio to record several adverts, stay overnight in a gorgeous hotel, and get flown back home again.

PS: A few years back when I lost my job due to redundancy, a friend suggested I should use my talents for good use by being a sex telephonist! I did actually look into it (it paid NZ$300 a night on average!), but am pleased I steered well clear as that would've probably come back to haunt me if someone from that endeavour recognised my voice now. Besides, I did manage to find a very fun, short-term gig restocking supermarket shelves (making everything look neat and tidy, which satisfied my OCD tendencies).

• I was in the top 0.5% of listeners for Arctic Monkeys on spotify in 2020

I was born on my Mum's birthday.
My fiance was born on what happened to be Father's day that year.
My mum died from bowel cancer when I was 10, His dad died from lung cancer when he was 10.
Just an odd set of circumstances, we were both born on significant days and then that happened.
Also, my fiance proposed to me on 5 October, when I rang my dad to tell him he went quiet, I thought he was overwhelmed but he simply said, 'That was our wedding anniversary.'

I grew an extra wisdom tooth in my fifties. My dentist said I was his only patient who had nine teeth in the upper right quarter.

I was in the Point Break (British pop group/boyband) fan club. They had all their fan club members names printed on their cassette sleeve.

Loved the useless blonde one (tbf they were all crap). Loved him so much I can’t remember his name.

And I did a degree, passing with the third-highest grade: so I got a 2.2 and you had a tutu.

Never heard of this before! Does it affect your daily life too badly? This made me consider how often do we see/cook with eggs haha.

Yes and no, we can't have eggs in our house and if anyone around me is eating eggs I have to walk away because I can't be near them but my friends and family don't eat them around me. It affected me a lot more when I was younger and I did (still do) get teased a bit about it but I've learned to manage it more now that I'm in my late 20s! People generally laugh when I tell them I have a fear of eggs but it's not actually that funny because I wish I didn't because it seems like such an obscure thing to be scared of!

My diet is completely egg free too. If I'm on a plane or something I have to order an egg free meal etc.

I have a phobia about prawns! I feel like they're watching me when I walk past the counter in the supermarket

Think mines best as a visual.

Mine too. I have sticky thin legs but hyper mobile joints in my knees and hips. Try sitting on the floor with your bottom, inside of knees and ankles all touching the floor.
