Damn. I got 'tagged' by Gerry Beuchelt.

Apparently (I wouldn't know, I am one of the less meme-conscious people on the planet) there's a thing going round where you tag five people, and they have to list five things about themselves that not many people know... and then continue the viral pyramid. I'm not even sure that's a real shape.

So here goes:

- In the course of my childhood, I lived in Lebanon, Egypt, Aden (now South Yemen), Yugoslavia (now the FRY), Kuwait and Saudi Arabia;

- My father has two knighthoods: a KCMG and a KCVO... both conferred on him on board the Royal yacht, Britannia;

- One of my favourite words (thanks to Eve Maler) is apophasis - though I wouldn't dream of admitting it;

- At university I once had a philosophy tutorial on the top deck of a double-decker bus;

- I used to learn the French horn. That's an instrument, not a technique.

Okey-dokey; now I have to tag some poor unfortunates. I'm guessing that there's not much point picking non-bloggers, so here goes. I'm going to go for:

- James Governor (Redmonk)

- Jerry Fishenden (Microsoft)

- Toby Stevens (EPG)

- Alec Muffett (Sun)

and, hell, I'm going to go for it and pick

- Michelle Dennedy. There's something irresistible about tagging your Corporate CPO for 5 little-known facts.

Over to you, folks...

You should have tagged Mr Schwartz...

I was about to tag you, too, but I guess I'm already too late!
