List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
Tag seven people to do the same. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it" (I'm not going to nag anyone into this, so there. If you wanna do it, do it.)

1. I have a fondness for hats. I own a number of hats, including a couple of fedoras, a handmade Panama actually from Panama, a few baseball caps, a stetson, a rain hat, a flat cap, a couple of trapper hats and a few wooly hats. I don't own a bowler hat, but think I probably should.

2. My favourite word in the English language is "flange".

3. I dislike talking on the phone, especially to people I've spoken to before, if I have time to worry about it. Ring me out of the blue? No problem. If I'm going to ring someone and have time to think about it before hand, I tend to work myself up into a state of nervousness about it. I don't know why this is, or why I get nervous and babbily. Perhaps a moose landed on my head when I was on the phone in a previous life or something.

4. One joint on the little finger of my left hand is double jointed. This is entirely useless.

5. I have a phobia of heights. But not in the usual sense. I'm absolutely fine with being on top of a big building and looking down. No problems. What I am nervous about is standing ground level and looking up at something. Looking up at really high ceilings, for example, in cathedrals or similar, makes me terribly nervous. I could barely stand to look up in the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence, the height of the dome made me brick myself. Presumably it's another roll over from that moose dropping onto me from above in a previous life.

6. I don't have a signature. I never got around to settling on one, so whenever I'm signing legal documents or signing anything like a credit card receipt queues can form after me while I write my name out in full. I'm now stuck with this, obviously.

7. I have a terrible attention span. I'm very flakey. I'm forever starting things and then not

"flange"

...I don't know what that means!

I dislike talking on the phone, especially to people I've spoken to before

Glad to know I'm not the only one. There was a time in my life, when every time I phone rang, I expected some terrible news and don't even get me started on phoning somewhere. I'm mostly fine these days though. Mostly.
