I have been tagged !

I have been tagged by Mrs John,
After asking what to do...here goes
Here's the rules:
1. Link to your tagger and post these rules.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself: some random, some weird.
3. Tag 3 people at the end of your post and list their names (linking to them).
4. Let them know they’ve been tagged by leaving a comment at their blogs.

Seven facts about me....
1. I love making anything rather than buying it, it starts out as I can do that a lot cheaper, but often isn't but so much more satisifying.
2. I have a husband, three daughters, five grand daughters and two grandsons, unfortunately lost the dog just after Christmas 2007.
3. We once walked to the top of Mount Snowden, tallest mountain in Wales, walking back down was a lot harder! took us almost all day to do the round trip, Just crashed out in the tent and moaned the next day!
4. Just had my 65th birthday, but I am only 65 from my neck down, still about 25 from neck up.
5.I already have crocuses and primroses in flower in my pots, and it is only January 24th!! My irisis are about ten inches tall, the magnolia is in heavy bud, soon I will be having flowers for Christmas.
6. I used to be a Tupperware lady, and once came home from a party with a guinea pig in the colander, it needed a home, so it went in with the rabbit that I had aquired while out for a walk one day, (She came home in an electric iron box!!) untill my husband could make another cage. During the day the rabbit and the dog shared the dogs bed in the kitchen and eventually ate the rush mat.Through the years I have had a white mouse called Snowdrop, a great Gerbil called Potter also more gerbils, A stray cat called Moggie and one called Tiger that only I was allowed to handle, and any animal that no-one else wanted.
7. I am a collector par excellent! I collect china dolls, tortoises,Lilliput Lane cottages, but only if I have physically visited the place depicted. Thimbles, Plates, and books, a whole wall full of shelves full of a collection started when I was seven years old.

Of course you can Mrs John, anyone is welcome at my house, just so long as you can cope with pauses in conversation while I count my double stitches!!
