I was nominated for The Liebster Award by our friend SunnyGirl to answer questions and give random facts about myself.
Lovely of you SG. Thank you so much.
Rules:-
Posts 11 random facts about yourself and answers the 11 questions asked by the person who nominated you.
Pass the award onto 11 other blogs.
Write 11 new questions directed towards your nominees.
Don't nominate the blog who nominated your blog!
Paste the award picture on your blog or choose your own.
Here are SG's excellent questions and my answers.
Do you prefer coffee or tea? Tea. When I was pregnant I went right off coffee and haven't touched a drop since and that's over 20 years.
Are you democrat, republican or independent? Conservative, Labour or Liberal (UK's 3 main political parties) None of them. Very disheartened with them all.
What's your favourite part of the country? Cornwall.
How do you eat an Oreo cookie? I've only had them once and dunked them in my tea. Not over keen, thought them a little sweet.
Do you prefer to drive or fly when travelling? I'd fly every time if possible.
When do you open your Christmas presents? Christmas morning with a cup of tea and a bacon sandwich.
What's your favourite time of year? Summer.
Do you prefer to read actual books or use an E reader? Books are very special to me and I still buy them but I'm loving my Kindle.
How do you prefer being spanked? If I had a choice it would be OTK with the hand.
Were you urged to write/blog by PK? No but I'm glad PK
What kind of car do you drive? P's at the moment as I'm looking for a new one.
