Many, many thanks to long-time reader and avid travel blogger Ashley Paige (no, not the Californian bikini designer – for those who fret about such things – but the East Coast anthropology student) of the fortheloveofwanderlust blog for nominating me for a Versatile Blogger Award.
As a condition of my nomination I must list 15 of my favourite blogs, a tricky task as I subscribe to so few. I’ve put in a little research and found some wonderful blogs that align with my interests.
My list comprises:
6/ Aaron Leaman
9/ Fossil Cars
12/ The Daily Mirror
15/ Blame Mame: A Classic Film Blog
I must also open up and list seven things readers may not know about me:
1/ I prefers cats to dogs and just about any other animals with the exception of monkeys.
2/ I wasn’t a child prodigy and I’ve been paying the price ever since.
3/ I’m a blue guy rather than a brown guy.
4/ Disco died for me sometime around 1981.
5/ Bacon is my favourite food group.
6/ If I had to choose one cuisine to eat for the rest of my life, it would be Chinese (Hunan preferably but Cantonese runs a close second).
7/ If it’s your shout, I’ll have a Ketel One martini, very cold, very dry, with a twist. Oh, and a bag of pork rinds, thanks.
Sorry for gushing (although with the Oscars approaching, my Sally Field moment is perhaps excusable) but thanks again to Ashley Paige and to all my readers.
