Seven

My new friend Rhianne has bestowed the kreativ blogger award on me. Thank you so much!

*To my father,
Please don't judge my spelling of 'kreativ'. That's how the blog award is spelt. I did check. So please don't store that spelling mistake up for the next time that you see me. Thank you and love you, Saskia xx PS When are you going to get broadband?
The award requires me to write seven random things about myself.

So here you are:

#1 I give blood 3 times a year. I am proud of this.
#2 I ♥ The Wire . It is my favourite tv programme of all time. It's so, so well written.
#3 I often eat the whole week's worth of biscuits and chocolate before Mr B even feels like a snack
#4 I would love to sky dive one day
#5 I am very bad at managing money
#6 I have travelled to 20 countries
#7 I learnt ballet for 14 years



I'd love to know something random about you, that I don't already know!

  5. Congratulations on the award! Well deserved!

    The last time I gave blood (a couple of months ago) I fainted. I got up and tried to grab my bag, just before I fainted. Only I couldn't see properly and ended up taking the biscuit tray with me instead of the bag. So I ended up on the floor covered in biscuits :/ I don't know if I can face doing it again!

    PS: I think I would drop dead if I jumped out of a plane...TERRIFYING!!!!

  15. I've never given blood as I'm anemic! :(

    And I definitely could never sky dive.

    Random facts about myself: I used to be a fairly competitive figure skater :) And I played piano and violin for over 10 years.

    Hope you enjoy your weekend...

  17. Have you read Lush Life by Richard Price? You'll love it if you love the Wire (Price was a co-writer).

    I got your postcard, by the way. Thank you! I'm so happy to have discovered your blog -- it has such a warm, happy feeling to it and your photos are freakishly gorgeous.

  18. I'd give blood if I weighed enough. Guess I need to eat more biscuits. :) Thank you for entering the giveaway to win my print! I hope you enjoyed perusing my shop!

  19. This has to be one of my fav tag around, both to do and to read. Love knowing all these things about you!

  20. I love when I run across new blogs... and they've won awards because it's so fun to learn little things about people! I think giving blood is an amazing thing to do- I try to give at least twice per year. I know I could probably do more. A little fact about me? I adore ivy covered buildings... I think they are magical.
