And the winner is…….

I have only been blogging since March and I am very chuffed to be nominated for a “Very inspiring blogger” award.

Thank you for much to Crazy Train to Tinky Town for nominating me, I am so grateful for the honour.

As I’m new this game I had to contact the author of the blog to find out what I needed to do to accept this nomination, she had been nominated quite a few times and has won a tidy number of awards even though she herself has only been blogging for a short time.

I need to name 7 bloggers who inspire me and name 7 interesting facts about myself. Naming the bloggers is easy but narrowing down just 7 interesting facts is proving to be a very difficult task… only kidding! I’m having trouble thinking of 7 so I thought I’d follow the example of my nominator and go down the “5 things” route.

So here goes:

Five fabulous moments in my life

The birth of my sons Scott and Jake.

The parachutes jumps I did as a venture scout.

My first kiss with Hasan.

Qualifying as a nurse.

Passing my ballet exams in my youth.

Five things I love

Being Hasan’s wife.

Being a mum.

Sex and the City.

Flowers especially freesias and daisies.

British seaside towns especially Weymouth.

Five things I hate

Clowns, dolls and puppets.

Violence and cruelty to all living things.

Bureaucracy.

War.

Oneupmanship.

7 bloggers who inspire me

Perking the Pansies

Goss Coaching

Crazy train to tinky town

Little dumb man

Earth laughs in Flowers

Being Koy

Kirsten Lamb’s Blog

There are many fantastic blogs out there, but these are the 7 that I read regularly and get the most from. Perking the Pansies was the very first blog I started to read and will always be my favourite.

I hope that my blog will become as successful as the blogs I’ve named in this post and I thank everyone who takes the time to read it.
