Memeology - Versatile Liebster

One of the rather fun things about this blogging game is all the nice meme-y things that are floating around.  I'm always dead pleased when I get tagged in one, because it means at least one person has noticed I'm writing stuff.  When there's a whole internet of stuff to read, I'm regularly astounded that there are people reading my bit of it.

Massive thanks are therefore in order, to the lovely and photographically talented @HPMcQ - If you like pretty photographs and nicely crafted words I suggest you pay her blog a visit, it's ace - she has tagged me with not one, but TWO of the aforementioned memes.  Generosity, thy name is @HPMcQ!

First up; the Versatile Blogger Award.

Versatile blogger rules:

1. Thank the blogger who has awarded you and link back to them – done!

2. Share seven things about yourself – should be easy, thankfully it doesn't stipulate that they should be interesting.

3. Pass the award along to 15 other newly discovered blogs - erm, yeah, I'm grateful and everything, but FIFTEEN?  Come on now.  I'll think of some and add them at the bottom. 

SEVEN THINGS ABOUT ME:

1.  I have seven bikes in my garage.  Five of them are mine.  I love them all.

2.  I am a basketball player, despite not being freakishly tall, particularly fit, or being American.

3. I am a ridiculous perfectionist when it comes to making sandwiches.  Almost everything else I do is slapdash.

4.  I once beat someone at Streetfighter 2 using my feet to control the game.  Also I was very drunk.

5.  I still live in the town I was born in, and in which my family can be traced back over three hundred years.

6.  I am finding this harder than it ought to be, because it's late and I should be in bed.

7.  I have an uncle who is a catwalk make-up artist.  That's not really about me is it?  Well, it'll have to do.

Next!

The Liebster Award, which looks like this: 

The liebster award rules:

1. Thank your liebster blog award presenter on your blog – Yep. 

2. Link back to the blogger who awarded you - Yep.

3. Copy & paste the award onto your blog - Yep.

4. Nominate 5 blogs to receive the award – That's more reasonable.  Five I can do.

5. Inform them of their nomination – never fear, I shall.

Okay then, just the nice bit now, wherein I big up some other bloggers:

@mummyglitzer - she's applying for jobs, which is boring, so now she can have a break.

@alwaysamummy - she's not even twenty-one yet.  Makes me sick.  Youth, honestly.

@_firsttimedaddy - because he is always telling me I'm funny, and the ASW in me laps that shit up.

@bishopstonmum - she's a new blogger, like me.  New bloggers need love.

@mcmurphycuckoo - she's even newer, a couple of days of blogging under her belt.
