Wow!

You know I love to accept awards that my blog has been nominated for, and its extra exciting when I get one that I haven’t had before!

This time it’s the Sisterhood Of The World Bloggers Award! How cool is that!

Many thanks to Jimmy Lou of Diary of a Little Bird for this considerate nomination!

What to do? What to do?

  • Thank your kind nominator
  • Proudly display the award image on you post and blog
  • Answer the 10 questions sent to you
  • Nominate 5 lovely blogs for the award and let them know by linking them to this post
  • Ask them 10 questions too!

So, on to answering my 10 questions

1) Where do you live? (& where would you live if you were able to move anywhere?)

I live in the South East of England, usually the warmest place in this sodden country! As for where I would like to live, I don’t know, but anywhere I have my family and friends close by!

2) What is your favourite thing about blogging?

I love being able to spew my thoughts out onto the screen, and share them, and then the interactions with readers and other bloggers is equally great!

3) What is your most inspiring movie?

I watch so many movies, I don’t think I have one that inspires me more than others… but there are so many that I wish I was living within!!!

4) Tell us something quirky about you.

something quirky about me? And you want me to single one thing?  I’m pretty much a bundle of quirks!!!

5) If you could have any wild animal as a pet, which one would you have?

Though I know and believe they should be in the wild, in their own habitats, I would love a primate of some sort, a chimp, or even am orang-utan!

6) Favourite song at the moment? Give us a link so we can listen!

Uptown Funk ! I love this song!

7) How long have you been blogging for, and what made you start?

I started blogging right at the end of November 2014, so its been 5 months. A friend of mine started a blog, and I wanted to comment on her post, and it invited me to create an account… I did… and the rest, as they say, is history!

8) Describe yourself in 3 words.

Bubbly, Brown and Funny!

9)  If you could go back and live in any era of history, when would you go back to?

I’d love to live in the 60’s, the Beatles heyday!

10) You have a day off work/study. What do you do to fill in your time?

I’d love to lie in, then leisurely breakfast and watch TV, or read… In reality I would be getting housework done!
