Tagged and award.

I really really must catch up on my tag and an award I was given from generous she tagged me with this:

1. If a movie was being made of your life who would you like to be cast to play yourself and why? I would like Rachel Weiz to play me, but she'd have to go blonde. If it was someone from the past then Diana Dors. But ultimately Victoria Wood would probably get the part which I'd be happy with.

2. You are spending a whole month on a desert island for charity, and you have to choose your favourite celebrity to spend the first two weeks with you and & your least favourite celebrity to spend the second two weeks with, who would they be and why?
I would spend my first weeks with John Simm because I love him, (if he wasn't available then Rupert Graves because I love him too!)
My second weeks with Jamie Oliver, I can't stand him but at least I'd be fed well.

3. What are your 3 favourite crafting products?
Needles, thread and rik rak braiding.

4. If you could invent something what do you think it would be?
More hours in the day, because there are never enough

5. What are the last 3 books that you read?
The gentle art of Domesticity by Jane Brocket.
Faith by Lesley Pearse
Unbeaten by Kim Woodhouse (from how clean is your house fame).

6, QVC or Create and Craft?
Neither - Like Twiggy. I can't afford the P&P charges though.

7. What is your claim to fame?
I live in the same town as playwright Alan Ayckbourn, (in fact my Dad knows him).
Also Little voice and Miranda were both filmed here (Miranda had John Simm in, how did I not see him as they filmed just around the corner from where I was living at the time I do not know!)

I am passing this onto:

Twiggy also gave me this award: Thank you very much!I am going to pass this award onto:

That's about it for today, I will try to blog again in the next couple of days. The sun is out and quite hot (I got burnt today just walking home from town). I have spent most of the weekend chatting to someone who I haven't spoken to for fifteen years... (long story).. and ironing ironing ironing!

Morning Jennie! Well we're surprised today at the weather- it was due to change but the weather is still warm. I hope it's a bit cooler for you inland and your sunburn has a chance to recover. I'm just enjoying the heat though while it lasts. After last years "Summer" I felt like I was growing webbed feet.

Wow I'm awed that you managed to answer this Meme. I would find it so hard.

Hope you have a brill week and finish the ironing. I have a pile mounting up but I'm trying to ignore it until I've finished the felt wallhanging.

Hi Jennie, I have just discovered I have been tagged, what a shock! I shall enjoy doing this one, I shall have to have a think of who I can't stand! We are very similar, I like John Simm and Jamie Oliver can be a bit irritating! I shall struggle with the book question, I don't read novels, too busy on the blogs! I'd like to know where you are finding all these cute Mabel Lucie Attwell cards?
