THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH YOU GUYS! I AM HONOURED AND OVERWHELMED BY YOUR KIND WORDS 🙂

I still get a buzz from each and every one I receive…..and I know I’m rule breaking…..

But….there always seems to be a but doesn’t there lol….. As I’ve had so many awards recently (and I’m not complaining!) as you can see, I’ve had to do them all in one post. I hate to have you waiting weeks for me to acknowledge the award, that’s just not fair now is it 😦

The rules are all slightly similar for these things, and as I’ve recently given you all so much boring information about myself, I’ll pass on listing things about me, i’d probably end up duplicating something anyway lol.

Sooooo, in honour of all the awards I’ve received and to celebrate my 200th follower (I am feeling blessed) and the 11,000+ views on my 214 posts, i have created my own little awards thingy lol. It’s nothing special, just a photo of a piece of artwork i created for my daughter. And to show my appreciation to all my followers, it is my gift to all of you! Because you are all so wonderful, and I really haven’t got a clue how else to show my thanks, and the sheer joy I feel at having you all as part of my Blogging life 🙂 You guys keep me going, do you know that 🙂

Thank you to everyone who has made my first 6 months of blogging the great experience it has been. I feel so at home here and have made some fantastic Bloggy friends 🙂 I have thoroughly loved every minute of it, and you guys, the ones who comment, and read my ramblings, are what makes it all worth while 🙂

So, please feel free to consider that, if you’re reading this and you’re a follower (or I follow you) you have been nominated for any of the awards above or accept my Very Special Blogger Award with much love from me 🙂 Take your pick!

And now, I think it’s time (and long overdue actually) for me to do a BlogRoll on my side bar. To acknowledge the fantastic bloggers who have supported me along my journey 🙂 please take a moment to visit their blogs, you won’t be disappointed 🙂

So, as we’re in party mood, and you’re all invited, tell me, What tipple (alcoholic beverage) will you be arriving at my front door with?

Apologies to Janet over at Postcard Fiction for the delay in dealing with this award. But, what with the A-Z Challenge I’m very conscious of only making one post a day 🙂

So thank you Janet, for the award….here are 7 more useless facts about me 🙂

1. I got married on the first available Saturday after my 18th birthday 🙂

2. I still miss my little dog Bill who died nearly 2 years ago 😦

3. I collect Rumtopfs lol

4. I paint my nails. I alternate between red, black and purple. My 3 favourite colours.

5. My favourite cheese is Brillat Savarin.

6. I have a purple case for my Netbook.

7. I wear black eyeliner nearly every day. My favourite is the Dior waterproof one 🙂

Will have to pass this on at a later date, when I have time to do some research on who has already had it lol 😉

My sincere apologies for making 2 posts today, I only ever do it on special occasions 😉

I’ve been nominated twice in the last 24 hours lol…..by Aly Hughes and Roger Colby so thanks guys, I’m very flattered 🙂

The rules for accepting this award are as follows:

1. Thank the award-givers and link back to them in your post.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Pass this award along.
4. Contact your chosen bloggers to let them know about the award.

I’ve noticed a lot of blogs that I read have already been nominated so I won’t be passing this on to too many others that’s for sure (I can hear you all sighing with relief lol).

7 Things About Me!

1. I’m a member of 2 writing groups, The Mermaids (a female only group) and Maidstone Writers (a group of Nano enthusiasts).

2. My most used Internet username is AngelChild and I have it tattooed on my shoulder. It’s one of my favourite Oasis songs.

3. My 3 furry babies are Georgie, a Yorkshire Terrier, Tigzz, a huge tabby and white Tom cat with a touch of feral in him (he’s a big baby most of the time, but, when he’s angry, stand back!) and Treacle, a black and ginger British Shorthair cat who thinks she’s a princess lol
