I’ve been tagged by MHC so that means I’ve got to conjure up 5 things about myself.

1. I was born 26 years ago in the hospital that I now work in – Chase Farm now part of Barnet & Chase Farm Hospitals NHS Trust. I nearly died before I was born because the umbilical cord got wrapped round my neck choking me. The registrar had to be called in to help deliver me using forceps and saved my life.
2. I have run a website for over 10 years. This has become stonysleep.com, but did exist as various names, hosts, guises and mirrors from 1997 to 2002. I’ve owned stonysleep.com since 17th January 2002 after Big Cat Records and then V2 Records didn’t renew the ownership. So it turned 5 years last month at it’s current address. The site is long overdue for an overhaul, but I never seem to have the time to do it. The plan is to run it through wordpress and link it in with the blog.
3. In real life I am an incredibly introverted and shy person. I’m a deep thinker and a continual observer. I sometimes hold grudges and regrets for many years after an event has happened but rarely reveal my true feelings especially if it involves other people. I have convinced at least 2 people that I was insane – this is not true, but I am certainly not what would be considered normal by far.
4. The thing I am most proud of is my music collection. I don’t know how many CDs or days that I own because I haven’t transferred it all onto my iPod yet and it’s increasing all the time. It was over 300 CDs last time I updated the list on my site but it’s continually growing.
5. It was not until I finished University and started working full time that I realised what a good memory I have compared to other people, and in particular what a knack I have for remembering small (and often trivial) details. I think I have a partial photographic memory. Having said that i always seem to forget where I’ve left the most mundane of items when moving from one room to another

This now leaves me with the tough task of who to tag:
Shamik, Ravi, Camilla
There’s a couple of others I know who have blogs, but I don’t know their sites, so will have to add them at a later date
