More Friday Fives, coz I'm bored!

1. Are you named after anyone? If so, explain.
The Amelia comes from Amelia Earhart.

2. Do you have your children's names picked out already? If so, is there any significance?
Yes, I'm going to have a gorgeous little girl named Isabelle Scarlett Rose *insert future hubby's surname here* I think these are the most beautiful girls' names ever.

3. If you were born a member of the opposite sex what would your name have been?
*Grimace*......Renford, after Mum's brother. Thank heavens I'm a girl!

4. If you could re-name yourself what name would you pick and why?
Scarlett or Audrey, for obvious reasons!

5. Are there any mispronunciations/typos that people do w/ your name constantly?
Sometimes. People read my 's' as an 'a' so am occasionally called Janine Betta. And people sometimes put extra 'e's in Janine.

Um...I'd stay away from the casting couch! That's about it!

1. Who was your favorite all time teacher(s)?
Mrs Ryan!

Drama of course!

My Amanda Wingfield (Glass Menagerie) performance in 6th form, follwed by my Mama Bear performance, in 7th form.

No, all my teachers have been women or old men.

5. What is the craziest/wildest/weirdest thing you (or someone you know) ever did at school?

1. If you could invite five people to dinner from history, living or dead, who would they be?
Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Audrey Hepburn, Cary Grant, Shakespeare.

2. Why have you chosen these five individuals?
They're all people I admire greatly.

3. What would you serve for dinner?
Not something I'd cooked, I like them all too much! Um...something posh.

4. What would you like to ask them?
Cleopatra: Are there any undiscovered tombs I could discover and fulfill my childhood wish of finding a mummy?
Joan of Arc: Can you help me with my French please?
Audrey Hepburn: I'd be too awestruck to say anything I think!
Cary Grant: Will you marry me?
Shakespeare: Did you really write all the plays you're credited with?

5. Do you think everybody seated at the table would get along? Why or why not?
Well Audrey and Cary would definately. Will have to come up with some sort of sign language to communicate with Cleo. Between us, I think Audrey and I would know enough French to talk with Joanie, and Shakespeare should get on with us three actors!

Duh! Nicky, as played by my should-have-been-hubby!
