The Friday Five
* What things did you enjoy as a child that you no longer do?
Colouring in, finger painting, walking along fences/low walls etc holding dad's hand
* What things did you enjoy as a child that you still do today?
Playing "let's pretend" (okay, so I call it Role Play now, and the games are a little different, but the basic precept is the same), walking barefoot in the rain and jumping in puddles, lose myself in my imagination, read every night before going to sleep, moosh Milo into vanilla icecream and mix it up till it's soft and a little melted and chocolatey and good and then eat it :o)
* What things do you do now, that the child you were never thought you'd like?
Eat sushi, have a distant relationship to my father, smoke, have sex
* If you could go back to one age and stay there for a while, what would it be?
I wouldn't, that time is gone and my life is better now than I remember it being as a child
* If you could fast forward to an age (you do get to come back!) for a while, what would it be?
I don't think I would, it would be tempting to fast forward about 10 years and see what my life will be like, but it would spoil the adventure and surprise and journey of getting there, and I might be tempted to change things or make decisions based on that knowledge which could affect the outcome... I believe in fate, and believe that life takes us where we are meant to be at any given point in time... sometimes we just have to trust to that.
