Someone "gave" this award to you? Create a blog post including 11 random facts
about yourself.

given you (see mine below) and make up another 11 questions for the people you

Random Facts:
- My favourite flowers are Tulips.
- I can be pretty open about a lot of things in my life, but somethings are just very private and I won't talk about them.
- I love my Taylor guitar.
- I am THAT person on the plane that will need to go to the toilet every ten minutes.
- I will instantly loose respect for a person if they have bad table manners. I am British and I like good manner.
- I like peanut butter with most things....bananas, apples, chicken, in a sandwich, with ice cream, in smoothies. Addict.
- I prefer studying in coffee shops over silent libraries.
- I would be devastated if John Mayer and I don't meet and get married.
- I grew up horse riding and love escaping to the hills on a horse.
- I tend to brag about the fact that my bro can play Sweet Child of Mine on his guitar, behind his head like a real rock star.

Thank you so much for the nomination! I'm so excited about it, my first award ever. Already looking forward to answering your questions :)
And I loved all of your answers.
Have a great day!
Just stumbled upon your blog, and I'm glad I did. I'm also from England and living in the USA. I've been here about 6 years now. Good luck with your move- I'll be following you along on your blog!

Have a safe trip. http://vintageboomer.blogspot.com/
Thank you Sally! I'm excited to answer your questions and I loved getting to know you a little better. This is totally random, but John Mayer lives part time in my home town of Bozeman, Montana. My sister just saw him the other day when she was out shopping. I'll tell him hi for you if I see him! ;)
THank you so much for the nomination sally! had such fun writing my post, also found some new blogs to read thanks to you :)

enjoy your last days before the big move! im sure you have tons to do, but take advantage of goodbye party opportunities :)
Sally, I've done it again! Haha. I nominated someone and got another award back, the Versatile Award. It's in my newest blog post. Anyways, because you were so happy about it and I thought that was cute and because your blog is my favourite one in the world I nominated you AGAIN. Can you blame me? :P But I realise it might be annoying to always do the random-details-nomination-blog-post thing, so even though I am not the master of the blogging universe and actually don't have the power to say this, I'd say anyway: take the award and follow the rules only as far as you want ;)
lots of love

Oh I forgot to add: Good luck with the John Mayer thing. I can totally understand that feel (not with John Mayer, he is all yours but with other people ;))
