It’s always great to receive any nomination, so to receive two within a short space of time is doubly great. Before following the rules to accept, I want to thank both Caragale and Vinnie H. I’m always reading their blogs and leaving comments and really do recommend them both. Their love of film is extremely infectious and their perceptive analysis is a delight.
Every blog award has its own set of requirements. Here’s what needs to be done for this one:
- Thank the person who gave you this award. That’s common courtesy.
- Include a link to their blog. That’s also common courtesy — if you can figure out how to do it.
- Next, select 15 blogs/bloggers that you’ve recently discovered or follow regularly. (I would add, pick blogs or bloggers that are excellent!)
- Nominate those 15 bloggers for the Versatile Blogger Award — you might include a link to this site.
- Finally, tell the person who nominated you 7 things about yourself.
I’m only nominating a Gr8at suitable number rather than all 15 as hopefully you will be more likely to check them all out.

And now 7 things about me.
My girlfriend got me into The Great British Bake Off. It’s a great show where I learn loads, get inspired with different recipes and can use plenty of food related puns.
If I had a superpower it would be time travel. If I could improve one current ability it would be drawing.
I play poker regularly. It’s a wonderful (and occasionally a little expensive) hobby that I have won small cash prizes in.
Magic has always fascinated me.
My favourite feel-good film is Planes, Trains and Automobiles while my favourite Christmas film is While you were Sleeping / Die Hard.
If I was to be a new Mr Man character I would probably be Mr Chatty.
I have three personally signed books by Nick Hornby.
Thanks so much for the nomination!! And congrats on yours!
More than deserved. You really do have a great blog.
Hey, thanks for nominating me! Huzzah! Time travel sounds way too scary… I wouldn’t mind being able to teleport though! Congrats on the award!
Teleporting would be good and save so much time, but time travel would offer so many prankster possibilities…
Veeerrrrry true…
Thank you so much! You are awesome!
And Planes, Trains and Automobiles is brilliant. Forget as a feel-good movie. It’s just brilliant.
Oh it is. But when it’s been a lousy day it’s still guaranteed to put me in a great mood and that’s worth treble points.
Yay!! Also, agreed–time travel would be awesome! Also, good for you with the poker success! Can I borrow some money? 😉
‘m playing Saturday so on Sunday I might be asking you for money haha
Lol! Best of luck!
Yaaayy! \o/ Love waking up to awards. ;D Thanks Alex, much appreciated as always!
Any fan of The Mentalist is in my good books for sure 😉
Congratulations on your award! I’m honored to be ranked among your Gr8at 8!
Your blog covers quite a really nice range. And Word of the Day is inspired!
Congrats on the nomination! And thank you!
If I had a superpower, it would be telekinesis.
She Moves in Msterious Ways haha
Congrats and thanks! 🙂
No worries 🙂
Thumbs up it’s 2017 and you’re still reading this post. Poker quotes brought me here. 😙 or maybe it was time travel.
What culinary masterpieces have you created since watching Bake Off?
Maybe the Mr. Men series will come out with a Mister BS character in your honor. 😜
Brilliantly superlative counts as two words, sadly ha. Not much. I’m more of a savoury cook really.
