I've Got An Award!

I was amazed yesterday to receive an award from Mother's Pride!
After hours of confusion & staring at it hoping it would jump onto my blog somehow, I think I have finally cracked it!



I have found quite a few lovely blogs and I have awarded the big E to the following people not in any particular order. Anyone who is not in this list already has one! I'm also hoping that by the time you receive the awards you haven't already received one from someone else quicker on the mark than me! In which case you can have bloody two!
Please send to ten other people & visit the links. Hope you all have fun and find it easier than I did!

Thank you so much! I didn't know you read you my blog, I am so pleased. Laurie had just given me mine but it took me two days to work out how to get it on there so there was a bit of time lapse. Looking forward to reading your blog now that I have found you.

Many thanks for the award. It is my FIRST! No idea whatsoever how to put it on mine, but I'll work it out in the end.
Merci

I got my award when you got yours - feels good eh? I need to work out how to pass it on and list favourites. Are you enjoying writing your e-diary?

Maggie May said...

Elizabethm .... Sorry some one else "pipped me to the post" but glad you got one!
I would not be able to do anything technical if it wasn't for my son but I've always loved writing!

Parisgirl .....I love to read about people in other countries. As my grandchildren are half Japanese & my son lived in Japan for years before coming home & returning my grandchildren to me, I am interested to know how other people survive "out there"! France is a bit nearer!

Gonebacksouth ....... I was thrilled & yes I am really enjoying the writing! You will see that I had great difficulty with the award handling! If you need some pointers, then read comments in my last post, written by Motherspride she was very helpful & my son followed her instructions.

davidmcmahon ....... many thanks for helping me to get launched! I am learning a lot as I journey through the blogging scene!

Sorry you had so much trouble, but look at it this way - at least you can do something now that you couldn't do yesterday!

When you get your next award it will be a piece of cake!

Thank you so much, Maggie, both for my Award, and for visiting my Blog. It's great fun blogging isn't it - and a wonderful community.
Wish I could work out how to put my Award onto my Blog - Daughter did the last one for me!!
Best regards, Margot xx

Wow - an award. We are real saddos aren't we? But it keeps me out of mischief - well some of the time! Thanks you so much.

Maggie May said...

MPITWrong ............Blogging is great but everything else is being neglected!
Hope you get someone to help you, as I did.Motherspride gave some good advice on the comments of my post "La Regazza Bella" maybe it would help you.

Retired&crazy............. maybe we are saddos. Could be doing worse things though!

Thank you so much for the award - and we've only just met. I will be displaying it proudly as soon as I have a minute to think of 10 people to award it too. Congratulations on yours.

Just read your post on 'the drunken girl' I find it shocking, although I did get in that state 14 months ago at a family do at my nieces 18th, in her house! children/husband with me and everything, but I haven't drunk since, because I know better. I had enough self control when I was young to watch what I was doing.

Don't be scared to be controvertial, it's your blog!!
