The Versatile Blogger Award


Well, imagine my excitement and bewilderment last night when I was informed I had been nominated for the ‘Versatile Blogger Award’.  A huge grin appeared on my face and I hurriedly tried to find out everything I could to see what it was I could be winning. I say ‘could be winning’ when indeed I ‘HAD already won’ but it took a few tweets and a few re-reads to finally get it!  I was having a slow night ‘brain-wise’ last night.  So, needless to say, I was ecstatic to hear the news and couldn’t wait to get in front of my PC so I could do my bit and spread the love.  So, thank you so much for the nomination Rod , you are an amazing gem I’ve recently had the privilege to get to know and I haven’t forgotten my little Pingu project today. 

Ok - here's what a versatile blogger should do upon receiving the award. As mentioned above, I was nominated this award by Rod Tyson.  Please check out his amazing blog here: http://rodtysonblog.blogspot.com/ You can also follow him on twitter on @rodtyson100


Now please do the following:
1. Nominate 15 fellow bloggers for The Versatile Blogger Award.
2. Add an image of the Versatile Blogger Award.
3. In the same post, thank the blogger who nominated you in a post with a link back to their blog.
4. In the same post, share 7 completely random pieces of information about yourself.
5. In the same post, include this set of rules.
6. Inform each nominated blogger of their nomination by posting a comment on each of their blogs.

The 7 random things about myself are…..ummm ….

1) I have a few random obsessions…One of them is my obsession with the story of the sinking of Titanic.
 
2) Another one of my obsessions is my morbid curiosity about serial killers.  I will devour any bit of information I can find on them.

3) When I was a teenager, my mates and I used to break into empty houses, plug in a telephone and phone random people all over the world.

4) I once got struck by lightening, through the ear piece of the handset of a telephone. 

5) I see the occasional dead person and a 12/13 year old ghost girl currently lives in my house

6) I have seen the movie Titanic 21 times!

7) Gregory Peck - the actor,  is my cousin – something like 5 times removed.
