1 Award, 7 Random Things and 7 Versatile Bloggers.

I was really happy to receive a note from Ros at RosMadeMe to say that she had given me The Versatile Blogger award! Thanks Ros!

Before I can bathe in versatile blogging glory there are a few things I need to do in return for accepting it ~

• Make a post linking back the person who gave you the award.
• Share seven random things about yourself. 
• Award seven recently discovered bloggers with this award and contact them to let them know they have won.

Seven random things about me ~

1. I'm an Ordnance Survey Map addict. I need an OS map for any area I visit and will spend hours pouring over them.

2. I'll only iron my sewing projects, ironing anything else would be a waste of life. Wash and hang is my motto!

3. When I'm on my travels I always have my eyes peeled for new places to swim. I'm not fussy whether it's in the sea, the river or in a lake.

4. I love painting (decorating) stick a brush and a roller in my hand and there's no stopping me...much to the delight of my husband. (the same goes for grass cutting!).

5. I hate shopping, unless it's for fabric or craft supplies (...or books).
6. I buy too many books, I'm running out of space to put them. I borrow lots from the library too...but then go and by the ones I fall in love with!
7. I love a good thunder storm and the smell of rain after a hot day.
