Liebster x2

I'd just like to take the time to post about the lovely Gabriella from Love From Londres nominating me for the Liebster Award.

Unfortunately, I've already been nominated and therefore taken part already, but I thought I'd answer Gabriella's questions anyway, because I like that kind of stuff. Thanks for nominating me, Gabriella, it's so nice to receive things like this.

  2. I'm very bad with money.
  3. I'm quite an anxious person, but about really specific things rather than generally.
  4. I'd love a tattoo but my indecisiveness over what nail varnish to wear puts me off.
  5. I named my cat after the song 'Hello Dolly' by Louis Armstrong, as well as her persona.
  6. I really enjoy cooking - weirdly it's something I get worried about if it's for anyone other than myself or Moon though.
  7. One of my favourite things ever is big family gatherings.
  8. I've some how managed to lose around 2 stone since moving to Newbury.
  9. My favourite meal is breakfast.

  8. How many continents in the world have you visited?
    Only three..
  9. If you could change your name, what name would you rather?
    I wouldn't, I think it would get too complicated, although I used to wish my name was longer, don't know how that works.
  10. What is your favourite crisp/ potato chip flavour?
    Walker's Cheese & Onion, fo lyf.
  11. Heels or flats?
    Flats because I'm not very good at heels.

The Liebster Blog Award.

Awh, it was nice to wake up this morning to being nominated for an award. Lovely Charlotte from Suitcase Packer has nominated me for The Liebster Award, so thank you very much! I'm pleased anyway, but I just love this kind of thing.



The Liebster Blog Award is given to upcoming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. The Meaning; Liebster is German and means sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing and welcome.

Here are the rules for receiving this award:
1. Each person must post 11 things about themselves
2. Answer the questions the tagger has set for you plus create 11 questions for the people you've tagged to answer.
3. Choose 11 people and link them in your post.
4. Go to their page and tell them.
5. Remember, no tag backs!

Here are my 11 things about myself:
  1. I need to start driving again.
  2. There are two reasons I haven't cut my hair in the last year; I'm indecisive about the style and I can't choose which hairdresser to go to.
  3. I often feel terribly nervous.
  4. I'm so excited about my first proper grown-up holiday with Moon that I could burst!
  5. Since starting work with Vue, I haven't been interviewed for a job that seems like more fun than working at Vue, even if it's a low-skilled job compared to my skillset and overall ambition.
  6. I'm such a neat-freak.
  7. I owe my love and knowledge of animals to David Attenborough and visits to The Natural History Museum and London Zoo.
  8. I love making lists - I like to know what I've got to do by when and what I've done and when.
  9. I kind of regret my degree discipline because I think I would have been capable of something more academic; although that's the only reason why, I loved University.
  10. I wish I could spend afternoons drawing, the way I used to.
  11. I cannot fathom how to plait hair.
Charlotte's questions:
  1. Sweet or savoury? I'm a fan of both but I think savoury wins overall.
  2. Three things that irritate you? Starting things halfway through, when pettiness is given ruling over common sense and unnecessary loud noises.

  4. Proudest moment/achievement to date? It's a toss-up between getting my degree and moving out.
