WELCOME
Welcome to my Blog named after the poem Hope Is The Thing With Feathers. The poem also reminds me of all the joy that various little birds (one in particular) have brought to my life.

Stylish Blogger Award


First of all apologies to Wendy who gave me this award on the 19th of February  - it has taken me this long to reply. Its not much of an excuse, but I had a week of the flu somewhere in this time.  Thank you Wendy for nominating me and I shall follow this on with the rules of acceptance of this award ;-)

Step 1 - Make a post linking back to the person who gave you the award!
Wendy's lovely blog - http://www.1stuniquegifts.co.uk/blog/

Step 2 - Share 7 random things about yourself

1. When I was a student nurse I had a severed hand flung at me by a surgeon who had just amputated it. Instead of waiting for me to walk over to the other side of theatre to allow him to put the hand in a plastic bag, he thought it would be much funnier to throw across the room and watch as I tried to catch it in the bag (I did).

2. I love spiders and bats.

3. I was once told I looked like the Corrs mad cousin that they lock in the attic. My sister was horrified when I told her - but the Corrs a good looking I replied ;-)

4. I used to love Percy Pigs until I found out there was real pigs in them.

5. I love pigs.

6. I fell of my bicycle once when drunk.

7. I am learning to speak Welsh.

Step 3 - Award 15 recently discovered bloggers with this award.
I am not exactly sure what 'recently discovered' means, but here are 15 lovely blogs.

  4. You are welcome Anna. As I said I didn't know which one of your lovely blogs to choose. This one is beautiful too: http://annamavromatis.blogspot.com/ I don't know how you keep it all going.

  5. Oooh. I don't know where to start. I have only been blogging for ten minutes and feel totally inadequate. Thank you lots.

    We now buy our birdseed in 20 kilo bags. They are a never ending joy and delight (though we know have a much better understanding of the phrase 'pecking order'. And our birds are pretty, but I understand that yours are much, much more musical.

  6. I seem to be hogging your blog. I took on the persona of the elephant's child because, like the one in the Just So Stories, I suffer from insatiable curiosity.
