Thanks for my Blog Awards. ;)

My blog friends, Sonel http://sonelscorner.wordpress.com/  and Tandy  http://tandysinclair.com/ have bestowed upon  me, the “Awesome blog content” award on Word Press. Thanks so much to you both for the wonderful compliment.

As with most awards, there is the dreaded acceptance speech involved, and this one requires that I share a few things with you about myself, using all the letters of the alphabet in turn. I will do my best to be brief, but unlike Tandy, who did marvellous one word answers, mine may be a bit longer.
