The rule of this game (if you can call it that) is simple - just state your favourite of any category of your choice! There's no limit to the number of categories you include, but just don't go mental and post 50 categories!



Anyway, as an example, here's my lineup:

Theme Park: Busch Gardens Tampa Bay
Coaster: SheiKra
Country: Spain
Band: Oasis
Song: 'In The Heat Of The Moment' by Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds
Movie: 'Guardians of the Galaxy'
TV Show: Friends
Book (by series): 'Gone' by Michael Grant
UK city: Portsmouth
Ice Cream (by brand): Ben and Jerry's
Restaurant: Nando's
Article(s) of Clothing: Hoodie/Sunglasses (you don't say)



That should be enough! Your turn! :)
