A pointless post

My favourite microbiologist has handed me a chalice, and confident that he’s a good chap and will have ensured that it is germ-free, here goes.

Eight pointless things about me:

1. I have never set foot in Andorra.

2. The clock on the computer I am currently using is about half a second fast.

3. I ate a grapefruit this morning.

4. I regret the fact that modern laptops do not come with a floppy disk drive.

5. I hate Tesco, but shop there anyway.

6. I have a 100% feedback rating on ebay. (Don’t we all?)

7. I once spent a pleasant hour or so reading the most ancient archives of The Last Ditch.

8. A friend of mine from university is now a leading LibDem blogger.


And who do I nominate? Well, actually, when I was a young bear, my Aunt Lucy taught me never to send on chain letters. This is not really a chain letter, but it certainly has some similarities. And, as a libertarian, I am into breaking chains and setting people free.

On the other hand, some people might see listing eight pointless things about themselves as a liberating experience. If Jonny Newton, or that man of destiny Andrew Hunt (first ever LPUK candidate in an election) come into that category (and either of them actually read this!), they may consider themselves free to draw up a list.
