So here’s a thing. I’ve been tagged. Twice! Once by Nats and once by Grandad. How popular am I eh? Eh?! No, I don’t know what it means either but, hey, we’ll work through it together (it’s a bloggery thing). So, over to the lovely Grandad, over at Head Rambles to explain the rules:
Post 5 links to 5 of your previously written posts. The posts have to relate to the 5 key words given here (family, friend, yourself, your love, anything you like). Tag 5 other friends to do this meme. Try to tag at least 2 new acquaintances (if not, your current blog buddies will do) so that you get to know them each a little bit better.
Righty ho, then. Here’s ma links:
FAMILY: I’m going ‘Small Boys – a User’s Guide’. Fibs, burps and toilet troubles. It’s all here.
FRIEND: It’s got to be ‘J’s Life Lessons’. Who couldn’t love a friend sage enough to admit that ‘Six cocktails do not make you more attractive, witty or a great dancer’. Damn!
MYSELF: Ahhh, my post on being ‘Blonde’. Restoring the clever/dumb balance.
MY LOVE: Well, I’ve already mentioned my lubly family in the first one, so it’s got to be KleptoBert. Well, it has, hasn’t it?
ANYTHING I LIKE: Ooh, this is hard. I think my fave post was on Earth Day. Enjoy.
Now, to tag some people. Actually, this is quite exciting….who to choose….:
ISITJUSTME: Obviously, because she’s on my wavelength, and she loves shoes and cooking and gossip and shoes and…
MANUEL THE WAITER: Because I’ve seen him on ISITJUSTME but never been formally introduced. And because instead of ‘comments’ on his blog it says: ‘14 people trying to get the waiter’s attention’. Heh!
73MAN: Because he’ll bloody hate doing something as mainstream as this, and because he’s so disgustingly intelligent that sometimes he writes whole posts that I don’t understand.
WEE JEN: Because her recipes make me droooool.
ANNIE: She’ll bloody hate it, but she’s a good ol’ girl so she might do it. By the way have a look at her STUNNING pics of Iceland while you’re there.



:-) Thanks for thinking of me, I’ll give it a go…

Will you bring your flip chart on the night of the awards cos I am not quite clear on what to do? 5 links to people I might know who have 7 other posts listed elsewhere??
Comment by 73man — January 18, 2008 @ 2:06 pm
Wee one: good on ye, gal.
73: Oh don’t come that ‘I’m actually not very clever’ rubbish when everyone knows you can confound half the nation with a single post. Flip chart..hmmm..I’ll need a bigger handbag…

Can I have a gless of wine now?

Hello! Thanks for the tag. I’ve never done one of these before. The trouble is that my blog is already so me me me that there isn’t a lot more room for tagging memes.

Nats: ah, glad you enjoyed them. It’s almost a shame when you have a fave post and it disappears into the ether. Nice was of resurrecting them really.
Isit: Goodo! Yes, vino away ol’ girl. I’m coming over to your gaff now to read your posts.
Annie: Ah, the self obsessed, narcissistic art of blogging eh? xxx

Done and dusted! Although it turns out that I’m terribly self-obsessed (because I’m fabulous, obviously
) so finding anything relating to anyone else was a bit tricky.

Well done Wee one. I’ll come and have a shufty.

Manuel: Hello at last! LOVED your list about yourself. Oh, and join the club with the persecution complex xx
