"30 Days of Me" blog challenge: Day 01 - 15 interesting facts about yourself

1.       My name really is Bob. Well actually it’s Robert, but my parents called me Bobby all my life – that had to be shortened when I went to Uni. Way too cutesy

2.       I am a pharmacist and it’s frustrating no-one really knows what pharmacists do. No I don’t count pills. No we’re not chemists. I can however describe all the ingredients of medicines, why they’re there, and what happens in your body from the moment you take it.

3.       I am married and have 3 kids – 5, 3.5 and 1 years old.

4.       I’m quite flexible – my party trick is putting my foot behind my head.

5.       I love the sea and the surf and hate being away from water.

6.       I had a pierced tongue for 8 years – until everyone started getting them (including my Aunty).

7.       I’m unnaturally drawn to pictures of houses, plans of houses and house designs. I love Grand Designs, Urbis and Unhappy Hipsters.

8.       I’m a nationally-recognised expert in a pharmaceutical-related thing

9.       I travelled around Europe in a campervan I bought in Belfast. It was called Ngaire.

10.   I proposed on the top of a mountain in the Swiss Alps at sunrise. She laughed at first.

11.   My first born had open heart surgery aged 4months – I literally saw her heart in her chest post-op. Freaky.

12.   I don’t believe in horoscopes yet wonder why I nearly exactly match my so-called Cancer “personality”.

13.   I was quite good at arts and sciences at school and hated being limited in what I could study – because of what would lead to a career. I wish my job was more creative.

14.   My favourite time of the day is the few minutes after turning out the light in bed. All is calm and quiet and I slowly drift off to sleep.

15.   I saw ET at the movies and cried. I cry even more in movies since having children – I’m a big sook.
