There have been quite a few memes on the blogs I usually read lately and I have really enjoyed reading them. I always like finding out about other people even in the rather shorthand way that memes provide.

When I had read a few I really wanted to join in but in general memes are spread around by tagging and it is against the rules to answer the questions if you haven’t been tagged. I am not by nature a rule-breaker so I stayed quiet – but kept reading of course.

Eventually I began to feel like my much younger self, standing in the school playground waiting to be picked for a team, being left until last and too shy to put my hand up and say “Me me too”. So I was really happy to come across Robin’s Meme of fives which she was too tired to tag and so left open. I replied to it – although perhaps I should have put it here rather than in a comment – I’m new to all this!
