Thanks to Emily Nagoski over on Facebook, I bring you a slightly different meme — well at least one I’ve not seen before. The original is somewhat too American for my liking so I’ve Anglicised both the language and some of the questions. So here goes …

Been 100+ miles by car : Only twice (there and back) so far this year

If you’re daft enough to want to play this very silly game — well at least it will provide 5 minutes distraction from these trying times — then copy the list, past it to your blog or Facebook, oh and don’t forget to update your answers!
Toodle pip!
