The Versatile Blogger Award

I've been nominated to do the Versatile Blogger Award tag by the lovely Mary, so thank you for the nomination! I think it's great that we nominate each other for these kinds of things - makes for good reading and also you might find out something that you didn't know about the other person.

Rules:

- Post 7 facts about yourself

- Nominate 15 bloggers to do this lovely tag 🌸

1. I'm a twin.

I'm starting with the basic facts and one that some of you might not know, I have a twin sister. Her name is Sarah and from seeing a picture of the two of us, you might assume that she's the older one, but that assumption would be wrong. I'm ten minutes older than her, but we don't hold it over each other at all. 

2. I can't drive (but I'm currently learning to!).

When you're 17, it's a rite of passage that you learn to drive and finally become free on the road. That didn't happen for me however, as I did a year of manual driving lessons in 2012 and didn't get on with it. However 5 years later I'm getting behind the wheel again, but in an automatic and I'm so excited to finally get my license!

3. I love puzzles and wordsearches.

I have a thing for wordsearches in particular, as they test your brain but also let you find new words that would never have known existed. I have a wordsearch app on my phone and I use it at once a day - it’s great for playing if you’re bored or on a long journey. 

4. I’m a lover of cars, and I don’t really know why. 

Even though I can’t drive, I really like cars - looking at them, seeing them being tested etc. It’s really interesting to see how they’re designed and engineered to be the best they can be. I liked watching Top Gear and now The Grand Tour, partly because of the presenters but also the great cars they have on the show(s). 

5. My dream is to be a published author.

I’ve always had a really vivid imagination, and have been writing short stories ever since I was little. I would love to write a whole book and maybe get it published or self-publish, but I really know what to write it about 🤔  in some ways I am the author of each post on this blog, but having a book to hold that I wrote would be so awesome. 

6. My favourite magazines to read are really ‘trashy’ ones. 

I like to read things like Real People and Chat, or what my dad would call “The Jeremy Kyle of magazines”, as I’m really nosy and like to hear about what’s going on in people’s lives 🙈 Some of the stories are actually quite inspirational, and some are quite shocking. They can also help raise great awareness of certain conditions and causes, so it’s not all bad. 

7. I love space and the stars ✨

I don’t really show this too much, but I do love looking up and seeing stars in the sky at night. I would to get more into astrology, especially considering I read my horoscope every week. I know it’s not real at all, but I like to see what they think my week is going to look like anyway. 

Those are 7 great facts about me, now I want to know about you! I tag following bloggers to do the same tag:
