So to comply with the rules of this award I need to list seven things about me you don't already know, as I received this twice I thought I would give you 10 slightly dull facts about yours truly.
So. Some things you didn't know about me....
 |
| 1. My first Proper job was as a Stable Girl/Groom in Hertfordshire, It was a bit of a shock for a townie like me to move out in to the middle of nowhere to a place where it got really dark at night, you had a mile walk to the nearest shop, and bats and owls were common sight !!! I grew to realised that I loved the countryside and now dream of living somewhere like that in the future! |
 |
| 2. I love Marmite on toast!! |

| 3. I am a North Londoner Born and Bred I grew up in Walthamstow and though its not the greatest place to live it still where I feel at home. Walthamstow is famous for its town hall designed in 1932 and built in 1941, the Vestry House Museum where William Morris was born, its 1930's built dog track (now closed) and also for the band East17 but we will gloss over that one!! But the very best part of Walthamstow is its mile long market, which is famed for its cheap fabric shops and stalls where you are guaranteed a bargain or two!!!. Shopping trip any one? |
 |
| 4. I am teeeeeerrrrrified of flying!! I have never even been on a plane, so my fear probably stems from watching too many disaster movies as a child. Not the most rational of logic I know, but fear is seldom a rational emotion. But it is certainly something I want to sort out! Also a fear of flying is probably not the best thing to have when your boyfriend is trying to get his private pilots license! |
 |
| 5. I have spent the last ten years trying to teach myself to play the guitar so far in vain! Mabey the next ten will fair better!!! |
 |
| 6. My favourite flower is a sweet pea. |
 |
| 8. I blog on the quiet! Its only my mum (no idea how to work a computer) and Boyfriend (not really interested) who know I have a Blog! I haven't been brave enough to tell my friends, probably because they would think I was silly, or feel obliged to read it! I have to say I am surprised anyone does, so thank you to all my lovely followers, and especially to Miss Meow who was my very first!!! |
 |
| 7. I would love to go to Egypt. Ever since I was a little girl I have been a little obsessed by the history and culture of ancient Egypt. |
 |
| 9.Love traveling on Steam Trains, nothing beats the feeling of time travel that you can get from the smell of coal smoke and the clickety clack of the carriages. |
 |
| 10. My day job is as a graphics designer for a model bus making company called Exclusive First Editions. Essentially I spend my days researching and recreating old adverts which can be fun, also this job has meant that I know far more about buses old and new, than anyone really should. |
I realise that these awards things are not everyone cup of tea so feel free to accept or not!
So on to my nominations, all are blogs I have discovered recently and think are great!
