A group distraction, presented by nige.
----------
The first instalment of Interview52 is now complete! It started on Friday 18th July 2008 and finished on 13th September 2009. A little later than expected, but we got there.
----------
52 mobloggers from around the world...
Some familiar, some not...
Each will publish a unique self-portrait, accompanied by a short interview.
Candid portrait meets candid interview.
The Rules
Every Friday the next interviewee in line will publish a new portrait and interview, consisting of their answers to the ten questions they have been given.
After they have published, the interviewee will then become the interviewer. They will be responsible for finding the next participant, as well as compiling the questions that this next person in line will answer. Interviewers can change as many or as few questions as they like, but they should change at least one before passing them on to the next lucky punter.
Thats it! Simple. More detailed instructions will be given to each interviewee as and when they are approached, so fear not.

Really enjoying reading these interviews, so many interesting people :)
I really enjoyed that and if in the future just one person can say something about me similar to what you say about your parents I'll consider that I've succeeded in this life
Glad you both enjoyed it. I quite enjoyed doing it - but then I do tend to spend a lot of time thinking, planning, reflecting - note it's all in the head! I'm not bad at action if it's for or with someone else - left to myself, with no external help or pressure, it comes in short bursts!
Have changed a rule!
Delete a question and add a new question
if you wish.
I'm interested to know how you think the sheep is your self portrait?
What a comprehensive post!
High time I made the trek back up north, methinks
Didn't read the rules Steph.
Mmm - it's a ram too!
Just symbolic of the area - national parks use it as their emblem - and this specimen was in the field opposite my back door.
Read rules after i had finished and also chose not to change any questions - so I don't like rules!
:) think I did
no remorse
does comprehensive mean I should have editted it? sure it went on but....
that's what happens when you retire - no rules and time to ramble on.... and ...on ...:)
sorry no you are far too kind to be be critical :)
I thought it was a bit long myself! But once done, that was it.
Breaking the rules already, Viv! tut tut!
Great interview. This is what i hoped for when we started this project - detailed answers! You've delivered in spades, Viv! Like Dhamaka I love your answer to the inspirations question.
I really enjoyed reading this, I hope my retirement will be as creative and fulfilling as yours :)
Lovely interview and yes like Dhamaka really like what you said about your parents.
Really enjoyed this interview Viv and its high time we had another beer :-)
Another great interview. It's really nice to know a bit more about you, the puzzles and carpet cutting in particular, for some reason it all makes sense :)
Love the picture too. I always think of you and your landscape together.
Aww, great interview - I'm very pleased to be in your family and friends tree! x
