Where did the nickname ChattyTea come from?
I joined some site somewhere and couldn't think of a name.. they had a bit where you could browse different names.. as soon as I saw this one, I knew it suited me!
What is your employment? What kind of business are you in?
At the moment I am not working, I had to leave my last job due to a health problem, but I hope to go back to work soon, I get so bored at home !! As to my emplyment when I do work.. its anything I feel I can do! From when I was young I trained as a sewing machinist, then when the children were young, I went into bar work and waitressing, I felt I could work that round the family life, as I worked 2-3 evenings a week, while the dad looked after the children, and they didn't miss me as they were asleep!
Is there a significant other in your life?
No, I am young???? and fancy free! and quite happy that way, And until my teenage daughter gets older I am not looking either..
Do you own any pets? Can you tell us what they are and their names?
I have 3 cats, 2 black and white ones about 3 years old, called Sapphire and Mitsi, Sapphire came from a cats home along with her sister (ruby) who got run over :( and Mitsi I acquired! someone asked me to look after her for a few weeks.. and about 2 years later she is still here!!! and I have not seen the person since! I also have a ginger and white fluffy cat! He is called Tigger.. and he thinks he is human! He is my baby, he is nearly 2 years old..
Can you tell us a little about yourself? Favorite food, color, perfume etc.
Well about me!!! errmmmm... Food, I like any food basically.. one of the least fussiest there!! I will try anything edible.. I would say my favourite is pasta though. I love pastle colours, lilac and lemon being my favourites. Perfumes, most Estee Lauder ones really.. But I have not got a particular favourite!
What are your hobbies? What do you do when you're not clicking away on BK or cross-stitching?
I read magazines and do crosswords, Go 'girlie' shopping with my younger daughter. May not spend a lot, but we have fun! I love cooking for other people... Play board games and also do the occasional jigsaw puzzle..
What was the last book you bought for yourself?
I have to admit since my husband died, I find it hard to settle down and read a book.. I did buy all of James Herberts again about 4 years ago..(I had read most of them before.. and enjoyed them)
What is the best tea to drink?
I don't have a favouite tea, as long as its a good quality tea I dont mind.. that cheap stuff just tastes disgusting!!!!!!!!!!

What kind of music do you prefer to listen to?
I like all different types of music, from silly dancing songs (which me and my daughter quite often have a dance to!) some country, some modern, some soppy sentimental, all depends on my mood! My all time favourite is old Motown though :)

Worst habit??? I really don't know!!! Apparently I shake or nod my head a lot.. or used to anyway!! Perhaps someone who knows me is better asking that too!!!!

Although not quite cartoon, Miss Piggy from the Muppets used to be my nickname when I was younger. Now I would have to say Mutley as I tend to laugh a bit like him!!
Have you ever been to Wales and if so, where?
The only places I have been to in Wales is Snowdon.. And it was so beautiful..and Rhyl a couple of times..
Of the places you have visited on vacation, what is your most favourite or memorable?
My favourite vacation/holiday was in Tunisia, North Africa, The main reason for that being that my friend had married a Tunisian, and I used to visit her family a lot and learn their ways and some of the language, so it wasn't just a 'normal' vacation/holiday.. I don't like the touristy type things..

Someone (who has since left) recommended the site to me, that was when it first started up.. I joined, took a look around. saw mainly chess and checkers so didnt come back for a while as they are not my favourite games...

A couple of months later someone else said that there was gammon here.. So I came back (with the same name) played for a day and paid my membership the next day I think it was.. (could of been the day after that!)
What question(s) did you hope would be asked, and what would your answer(s) have been?
To be honest, I have been asked a lot more than I thought I would of been asked, so there is no answer to that one... I just want to say THANK YOU to all who have sent in questions.
