"Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 23 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 6 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you." (or because I enjoy bothering you)
1) I worry too much ... If you don't mind me saying that... Because I can always retract it ... You know.... Don't want to offend... And then there's the cost of cheese in Zurich.... Shocking! Why did I write that? Ooops! Where's the backspace key....? ;-)))
2) As I get older I'm more gregarious. I used to be shy, but not any longer.
3) I am an engineer rather than an artist, but I can appreciate art - especially quality art.
4) My kids are wonderful - and scary at the same time. A typical male view I guess!
5) I like the colour blue
6) I am strangely drawn to pens and pencils... I have a collection. Nothing organised, just a lot of them!
7) The first thing I do when I get home from work is to make a cup of proper coffee!
8) I have had approximately 20 jobs .......... So far! Watch this space...
9) I have owned 15 motor-cycles but only 6 automobiles - no two at the same time!
10) I love mysteries because they show us we don't really know everything. Just because something is called a "conspiracy theory" it doesn't mean it's not possibly true. I keep an open, but sensible, mind.
11) I haven't seen my Brother for 8 years, nor my sister for 6. I have no other siblings or extant parents. This grieves me.
12) I can stand on my own - but love the company of my friends
13) I work equally well as a part of a team or by my self.
14) Sadly I don't respect money. I need it; I work for it; I use it, but I don't overly like it. Probably the main reason why my close friends are all very wealthy and I am not...
15) The Wren is my favourite bird.
16) I miss having a decent railway system in this country. So many branch-lines and stations closed that we all have to use cars or smelly buses now. A crime. The infrastructure was there. No need to destroy any more land just to build yet more roads...
17) Jack of all trades - Ace of none
18) I like red wine, not white
19) More often than not I wear blue socks
20) Women are beautiful; Men are ugly... But I'm biased
21) Quality never goes out of fashion
22) I enjoy writing
23) The sexiest part of a woman is her smile

Not only blue socks are random parts of the kaleidoscope, but they are the proof of a sophisticated soul. :))
