• Nominate 5-11 fellow bloggers with fewer than 1000 followers who you think deserve the award
• Create a new list of questions for your nominees

Questions posed by The Haunted Wordsmith:

1. If you could be any animal, what would it be?
2. Do you believe in fairy tales?
3. What is your favorite movie/tv show?
4. What are you reading right now?
5. What is one movie people would be surprised to learn you like?
6. If you could trade places with anyone for a day, who would it be?
7. What advice would you give your younger self?
8. If you could swap blogs with someone, who would it be?
9. Name three places anywhere in the Universe that you would like to see up close.
10. Dog, cat, fish, bird, reptile, small mammal, or no pet at all?

My Answers:

1. A Raven, It will be nice to be able to fly and also most people are scared of them, a bit. They do seem to be the stuff of Nightmares.
2. Yes, absolutely. Life is a fairy tale, there are goodies and baddies and great stuff happens and stepmothers are usually not very nice (except for you of course, if you are reading this and happen to be a stepmother).
3. I have a few favourite movies and TV shows. Father Ted was one of my favourite comedies, along with Blackadder and The Good Life (If you don’t know them, look them up) and I am an avid fan of the Simpsons.
4. I am currently rereading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Just read Agatha Christie Halloween Party.
5. I love old movies, really old movies, like Gone with the Wind and All about Eve, Kind hearts and coronets and The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp, so it surprises people to see in my DVD collection, along with these golden oldies, There Something about Mary. It makes me cry with laughter from  beginning to end. Although it’s probably getting a bit old now…
6. Oh, I don’t really know. I’m happy being me. Someone else would be too much of a climbdown 😉
7. I would tell myself not to be so worried all the time. Most things work out OK. Also Stop procrastinating and work harder!
8. Again, like question 6, everyone’s blogs are so unique, I don’t think I would swap with anyone, but please don’t construe that as not liking other  blogs, there are lots of blogs out there that I think are really fantastic, but I don’t think you can ever copy someone else’s style, you have to make your own.
9. The Rings of Saturn, Macchu Picchu and Atlantis (I’m sure it still exists somewhere out there).
10. I currently have chickens, which I would not give up, but I would LOVE a dog.

OK

Now for my Nominees. To be frank, I can’t be bothered to find out how many followers a blogger has before I nominate them. So here are some Blogs that I like.
