Not something I understand, but Fawkes asked so nicely. And it's Thursday, I'm waiting for my date to turn up. I'm trying to pretend i'm not drunk. Plus the nicorette patch has started to sting.

Seven Songs I Like (In no particular order):

1. Mack The Knife - Ella Fitzgerald - cos she gets it wrong. So wrong that it falls apart around her, and she carries on, laughing and never dropping a beat.
   
2. Sinnerman - Nina Simone. Oh, she was mad, but she's your go-to-gal if you want a 14 minute spiritual.
   
3. Your Disco Needs You - Kylie Minogue. Ah. I remember falling in love with this when I thought it was an obscure bit of euro pop.
   
4. Seasons in the Sun - Alcazar. Talking of obscure bits of euro pop. They take the Nana Mouskouri classic. and they sing it out of tune. Bless them.
   
5. Downtown - Petula Clark. You know all the words. You just haven't realised it yet.
   
6. Baby One More Time - Britney Spears. The only song I would ever sing at Karaoke. But doing my slow, deep Paul Robeson impression.
   
7. Jerusalem - The only song to sing walking home drunk through the rain.

6 Weird things/Habits About Myself:

1. I refuse to admit I'm getting short-sighted - but I don't stop going on about it. Honestly - why does my vision improve rapidly after a vodka? Everything's in focus. And yes, the men are prettier.
   
2. I have to be introduced to people before I can talk to them. Unless we're about to die. Or shag.
   
3. I always go to bed with an empty bottle beside it. It's cos my flatmate spends an hour in the bog in the morning with a cup of tea and a slice of toast, and boys just can't wait that long to wee. I hate myself sometimes.
   
4. When I'm really really drunk and don't want to show it, I start jiggling my knees.
   
5. I don't forgive. Not even myself.
   
6. I can only exercise to Radio 4. Unless its jogging, in which case it's cheesy club tunes or nothin'
