Awards and a game of TAG !

 Interior Designers Julie and Danni have a lovely blog

called t & g interiors where they post beautiful photos of interiors.
 This week they gave me the 'Blog on Fire' Award, but having just received one,
 I redirected them to my recent post here.

Then my dear friend Olga @ stardust decor and style passed on the

Versatile Blogger Award to me.

For this award, I need to tell you seven random facts about myself

 and pass it on to 10 other bloggers.

So seven very random facts !

a) I only learnt to copy and paste in October, when I started this blog.

b) Every single time I type I forget which button to press to get the top

or bottom row "34£%6&8)-=^"!!!

c) I write a post and then erase about half of it - I ramble too much !

d) I have no clue what the 'ctrl' button does

e) Every time I have gone for ) I get 0 - seriously I do - lol

f0 Just did it again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

g) I have never pressed anything on the top row of the keyboard.

Ten bloggers will be named at the bottom of this post !

 I also got tagged in a game of TAG by KL from eternalicons
