8 random facts about me

I got a comment over night from Michael Specht, who tagged me in the latest meme.

Sure why not. Happy to play along, just like I did a while back.

The background/rules:-

1. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
2. People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (about their eight things) and post these rules.
3. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

So, my 8 random facts :

1. I was born 9 months and 9 days following my parent’s wedding.
2. I lived in Elwood for the first 27 years of my life. My dad is still in the same house today.
3. I went to high school with Eddie Maguire – he was a year behind me.
4. The first program I ever wrote was a date validation application. It was hand coded in assembler on punch cards. I still have those punch cards.
5. In college, I was the president of F.O.U.L – aka Friends Of Unnatural Llamas. We had a manifesto and a news letter and I even got a medicare card for Ralph The Wonder Llama. (one day I need to scan that stuff)
6. My first car was a 1980 Toyota Corolla. It was silver. It was my mother’s.
7. The heaviest I have ever been is 135kg (that’s almost 300 lbs) back in 2005.
8. My wedding anniversary is the same as my parents
