The gay Ms O'Foot

Okay, I'm posting this before it gets any bigger.


For those who didn't read the post before last, several lovely people have submitted three statements about themselves, and your task is to email me your guesses as to which three statements match which blogger.

I'll email you your score and once entries are in, or in around a week's time, I'll announce the winner. I'll also post the correct answers, along with a few comments as to which of the guesses were most surprising.

Thanks to everyone who joined in. There are three statements each from Meva, Gigglewick, Mizanthrop, Adam, Leilani, Actonb, MelbourneGirl and me.

And here they are:

1. I have never owned a car.

2. I grew up in a Angelina Jolie style 'rainbow family'; both my sibs were adopted from different countries, in fact I'm the only member of my immediate family, (aside from my child/ren) to be born an Australian citizen.

3. When I started uni at 17, I wouldn't go to the Student Union for the first week because I thought I would have to show some kind of card to prove I was a Unionist. (And, no. Tony Abbott isn't my uncle.)

4. Once I drove to Sydney with 2 girlfriends in a VW beetle. We stopped in Albury for the night and went to a pub and met about 8 guys and we all then squeezed into the beetle to go to the local disco. I kissed one of the boys later.

5. I have not eaten McDonalds since 1991.

6. To get back at one of my brothers I once froze my own wee into ice cubes and served it to him in a glass of lemon cordial. (I was nine years old)

7. I went to primary school next door to Pentridge Prison. Through clumsy ball play and schoolyard bullies I lost a football, basketball and 4 tennis balls over the bluestone wall and in the 6 years I was there we had our lunchtime cut short twice while police scoured the area for escapees.

8. I used to be able to do a 360 on a skateboard.

9. I once told my Christian best friend that Greek Mythology makes more sense than christianity.

10. I was the under-17s doubles-kayaking champion in my state.

11. My elderly cat pissed on me while I was sound asleep in bed at 4am last week.

12. Once I won an egg-throwing competition.

13. Paul McDermott once sat on my lap. I think this caused permanent
damage to my sense of smell.

14. My brother used to sledge me by singing "You’ve got a big nose" to the tune of 1927’s "You’ll never know".

15. I never finished high school.

16. I got a massive and extremely well done line stroke painting of a samurai
slasher for Christmas.

17. My favourite café in the world is in Chattanooga. This is irritating.

18. I didn't get my first car until I was 26. It was a 1968 Merc with a fold back sunroof, I thought it was so cool, until it died.

19. I have no opinion whatsoever on Nicole Kidman's pregnancy.

20. I have a three metre high bamboo teepee in my front garden.

21. I have played netball with the daughter of Australian cricketing legend Ian Redpath.

22. My favourite car ever is a Skoda.

23. Both of my parents seriously considered joining the Communist Party when they were in their early 20's.

24. I still harbour a grudge against my mother for not letting me learn morris dancing while at Infants School.

Once again, this proves my theory that the most interesting thing about this blog is the people who read it.

Good luck!
