50 Facts About Me

I was recently tagged by the lovely Gracie from Ugly Face of Beauty to do the '50 Facts About Me' tag so I thought I'd give it a whirl. I know as bloggers and blog readers we're nosey people and I know i'm the type of person to LOVE reading this type of post and so I thought I'd add in a few photos too to make it a little more interesting and give you an insight to a little bit more about me!

So Here it goes...
