Get To Know Me

Now that we’re getting into January a bit, I thought we’d take today as a chance for you all to Get To Know Me a bit! And what better way to do this than to answer 30 questions all about me?

I spent what seemed to be forever browsing through the internet for a tag that I could answer, but when I found these questions on Root Report I decided they’d do the job perfectly instead. Of course, you can all go and read my About  page here on the blog, but sometimes it’s fun to know a little more about the person writing the blog.

Shall we take a look at the questions and answers then?

1. Are you named after anyone?
   Not really. My Granny’s name is Catherine and she gets Kate for short, but I wasn’t actually named after her.

3. Do you have kids?
   No but I would like to some day!
