Hey I thought it was pretty good!

Pombinha looks great all togged up!

Your sofa looks really comfy too! Plus, I always love seeing pics of your babies!!

I take it from your answers that you don't defrag regularly then?!!

My geekness is really coming to a head now!!

1. If you were to go on Master Mind, what would your specialist subject be? Badgers, I don't know anything about them but I would read up

2. What type of work does your Mum produce? She mainly does watercolour landscape stuff. She used to do a bit of everything, still life etc etc

2.1 Does she have a website? She's only just learnt how to turn a computer on

3. Have you ever had a Dymo writer? Oh yes I did! A pink one! I used to write naughty words with it and plant them in my sisters room and she used to get in trouble as it looked like she'd done it with her red one

4. Do you have your own website? No

4.1 If so, what's it about? If not, what would you like to have one about? Id probably have a diary on it which Id fill in once or twice then forget about, photos, something about Tae Kwon Do, and a whole page dedicated to my cats. I'd also have songs available to download, I dont know if Id charge for them or not... It would have a link to here aswell!

5. What was the last really embarassing thing you did? I was talking to my boss about half an hour after my lunch and I just burped, I don't know where it came from! I nearly died she found it funny though, but I didnt! I can usually control myself but I got a real surprise!

6. Did you go to San Tropez and Monaco when you were in the South of France? I think we went to San Tropez because I've heard my Mum talking about it but I havent been there since I was about 5. Although I did go to Carnac near Brittany it was lovely!

7. Which is your favourite film of all time? The land Before Time

8. What styles - of clothing - did you explore before you came to your present style? Oh my word. I used to put all kinds of colours together, it was the 90's! I used to have these purple trousers I just loved, and I'd wear any top with them I look back at pics and Im like oh my word. I also used to love my WHITE jeans...

9. I noticed that you'd like to get engaged to Mark - do you have any idea about the kind of wedding you'd like? Quite a big classy one. I'd like a dress like the one Pheobe wears in friends when she marries Mike in the street. A nice old castle or church to do it in and then back to a posh hotel for the reception. Id like to go to Mauritious for my honeymoon. Id also have lots of bridesmaids... Ok maybe I've thought about this a little too much.

10. How many laungages can you count to ten in?!! English, German, Spanish, French and Korean!

I will be back!!

Make sure you are!

1. What best describes how you feel in the morning?
a) refreshed
b) boisterous
c) cranky
d) smelly
e) angry
f) more tired than you were before you went to bed I am a bed head
g) stinky
h) like a wet rag

2. If your kitties could answer three questions in complete English, what would you ask them? Does my bum look big in this? Who do you like best mummy or daddy? If you won a million pounds what would you spend it on?

b) start laughing uncontrollably
c) get angry and tell him off
d) pretend you don't notice and carry on

Ok I am laughing big time at the 'start crying' answer. It depends on who it was that farted, but people do fart all the time and I usually LMAO and point it out to everyone, so B.
4. You're mingling with people at a party. A guy you don't know that well is trying to flirt with you during conversation. What would Mark do if he noticed this from accross the room? If he thought he had competition he'd be over like a shot, he can control himself pretty well though. He has left me to fend for myself before when this has happened. He sometimes thinks its funny and watches to see me wiggle out of an akward situation.

5. When was the last time you hugged a stuffed toy/animal? This morning. I had one too many lemonades last night and have a hangover today and came into work late because I was being sick

how bad is that. Anyway I hugged a cow my friend got me for my 21st birthday. It made me feel a bit better.

6. Can we just call you donkey girl from now on? Are you going to listen to me if I say no? no I didn't think so, yes you may call me donkey girl eeeooooreeeoooorr

7. You arrive home really mad. Mark is watching TV. Why are you mad? Do you tell Mark right away? I'm mad because a seagull just pooped on my head as I got out my car and now I have to wash my hair again and it takes so long to dry. I tell him so he can come and laugh at the state of me.

8. By the way, too bad... we're calling you donkey girl anyway.

Ok cool I kinda like it anyway! And I really did ask for it using a Donkeys name for my username

9. You're at a restaurant with a friend. You specifically ate a light meal so you could afford to have room for the sticky toffee pudding. Your friend doesn't order dessert, but when it arrives, your friend asks if she can have some too. What on earth do you do?

b) I stop the server and ask for another sticky pudding.
c) I say no way! I've been dreaming of this sticky pudding all day!

d) I share, but it's driving me nuts inside!

e) I start crying.
LMAO again, B

B without a doubt, but if that fails I'll hold my hands up. I would be laughing aswell though, farts get me going everytime

11. You're mingling at a party when you notice that a woman you don't really know appears to be flirtying in conversation with Mark across the room. What do you do now donkey girl? What..... do you do!?

Oh god I just nearly spat out my lucozade. You crack me up. I would wait a while, because I've jumped into these situations before and made an a$$ of myself. If it was obvious they were really flirting I would go over and just stand beside him, or hold his hand, or maybe ask him if he would like me to get him a drink, then when I walk away the girl will ask 'Who was that' and he can either lie, which will result in punishment or he can say that is the love of my life she is everything I live for. So I suppose A C I J K. Also if the flirting continues I would probably give Mark a little nudge...

12. When was the last time a stuffed toy hugged you?

This morning

13. Can donkey girls just call you from now on? (Okay so those last two questions don't really work with the tables turned.

) Yes I'd love to talk to other donkey girls

14. Mark arrives at home. He is really mad. You are watching TV. Why is he mad? Does he tell you why he's mad?

He's mad because he just saw a badger run across the road and nobody stopped to try and catch it. We live in a city centre and badgers should not be running around like that

Thanks Wyan! Keep em comin!

I do try!

A and F, I am such a sap I get soooo weepy at things. I cried when Madge died in Neighbours so I bawl at some films. Also rubbish films with rubbish actors make me want to cry

2. At what location is a tear jerking movie most likely to make you cry?
a) movie theatre
b) only if I'm with Mark at home
c) anywhere private, including with friends

f) This question made me cry. Stop it!

I usually cry in the most unacceptable place, like the cinema or someone elses house, rather than at home where its ok to cry...
3. Have you ever laughed yourself into incontinence? Haha yes! Not a full blown pee but maybe just a little.

4. When was the last time you had a tickle fight? I can't remember

4½. Who won? See above, I think I am neglected..

5. What was the last thing you ate that you shouldn't have? About 5 minutes ago I had a piece of Marks brothers birthday cake. MMmmmm

6. You're stranded in the middle of a field where you can see for miles all around. How did you end up there? What happened?

Tough one! Someone told me there was someone giving away free GHD hair products in a field not far away. They gave me a sketchy map and told me to head East and look for the 100 year old tree, the rickety bridge, the pond, take a left at the field of sheep and then take a right at the corner. I did and I got so tired I lay down for a little rest and when I woke up it was light and I had no idea where I was! Would you believe it! Thankfully I had my trusty mobile phone so was able to call for help, except nobody could find me. I had to live there for many weeks until travellers found me and took me under their wing. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be sitting in my living room today.

HI! We have, (let me think about this...)

2 Angel Fish who rule the tank, their names are Janet and Peter, Janet is the boy and Peter is the girl. We used to think Janet was a girl so called her Janet then we took her to the fish shop to find out her sex and we came home with a little girlfriend for him. But we decided to keep the same name.

1 Silver Shark - No name (his 3 brothers recently passed away)

2 Suckers (dont know the proper name?) no names either, although I think they did have names I forgot them though

2 stripey eel things? called 'The Wheels'

4 Neon Tetras called the Meemo's. Meemo is what my sister called Nemo when it came out

1 Red Tail Black Shark called Nigel, he did have a friend but he bullied him senseless so we took him back to the fish shop

2 Guaramies (my spelling of fish names is awful)

4 other little fish they are silver and very pretty, rainbow something perhaps?

My memory is awful. We have had quite a lot of fish. We used to have an orange guppy we called Pombina but she also passed away

Ok, I've been busy this week, but I've been ready the thread, so I only have two questions!

1. Why do you keep killing your fish?

2. Can I have a million dollars?

That'l be all!

Congrats though on being spotlight of the week, I'll try to get you some new and real questions in the morning before you go handing it off to someother poor member!

1. Why do you keep killing your fish? I don't do it in purpose! Haha it does sound like a lot of them have died but this has been over a long period of time

2. Can I have a million dollars? Why not have 2?

That'l be all!
