Fabulous!

A Woman of No Importance (whose blog is anything but!) has furnished me with this Fabulous award, for which many thanks.



In exchange I have to tell you five addictions of mine. Not easy. Well, here goes.....

1. Chocolate. Any and all be it sweets, cakes or drinks. But I'm having to curb this one because I'm on the Slimming World diet which is a great diet but, sadly, chocolate is not allowed in the quantities I can indulge in given an evening in front of the telly.

2. Holidays. I love going away for a few days or longer. I'm not happy unless I've got at least one holiday to look forward to while I'm away on another one. When I was working, I hated having only five or six weeks annual leave so now I undulge this passion to the full. The best times are going away with 'im indoors; staying with my best mate; going away with friends.

3. Shopping. No I haven't gone mad. I hate food and clothes shopping. The kind of shopping I love is at the garden centre or the caravan shop or the chandlers. All those lovely little gadgets and nic nacs. Look, I'm dribbling!

4. Eating out. Would love to be able to do it more often and whilst trying to lose weight I have to be careful what I choose but it's still fun, especially with friends.

5. Spending time on my own. A whole day is wonderful, a couple of days is true heaven. Of course it wouldn't be as nice if I was on my own all the time. I do know that.

OOooooh can I have a sixth?? LISTS. I just love 'em.

Now, according to the rules of this stupendous award, I have to nominate 5 bloggy friends for the award along with a request for their 5 addictions. So, in no particular order, you're all special. Mother's place is in the wrong ; Auntiegwen; Tea and cake; Mean Mom; Scrappy Sue.

I look forward to reading your lovely posts, come on - time to 'fess up!

Thanks again AWoNI for nominating me. Now I have to get back to some dusting. Not.

Oh Dear Flick, I really am rubbish at the moment - I meant to come back to you ages ago and do this one - I'm so sorry. And it's a lovely Award - I do hope I'm not too late. Thanks and love, very belated... M xxx

Hi Flick, I'm sure I left a comment yesterday, but can't see it now! I've tried and tried to get the Award on to my Blog, but it will only save your whole Blog! How do I separate it? Any advice? So sorry to be useless in this way, but don't know why! M xx
