So, When's the Party Starting?

The Eight Irresistible Principles of Fun

There is another one by Box-of-Crayons. I had this on my main blog, but if any blog needs it, it is this one. I'm not singling any one out, UrbanGal61 It's no one's fault, UrbanGal61. Some people are just more, say, repressed in their older years, and are naturally terrified if anyone found out you some one was writing a COMPLETELY FICTITIOUS ACCOUNT THAT HAS SOME TRUTH ABOUT OUR FRIEND, DIANA. THE WORLD WILL BE A BETTER PLACE IF WE SHARE OUR WISDOM.

Tell you what. I'm going to post a secret. I've already posted it in a profile, but I'm sure no one read it. Or maybe 2 people. Then we'll see what happens, okay Urbevery one? .

Andrew Awards Me and I Award Elle

Andrew Carson, a member of this blog, and a very good friend, has awarded me "The Versatile Blogger Award." Read the rules after the jump, and you will understand the privileges and responsibilities to accept this award, as well as paying it forward.
The first person I am paying this to is my very best friend throughout life, Elle.

sday, 21 April 2011
















I was given this award by Johnny Madrid aka Tim E. who writes an awe inspiring blog that you can find by following this link: Just Johnny... http://thetimebi.blogspot.com/ and I can't thank him enough for it. I don't exactly win a lot of awards for anything let alone this oddball collection of ramblings and scribbles I call a blog so I am very thankful indeed. Now there are some rules to receiving this award you give a thanks and a link back to the person who gave it too you (which goes without saying) you also have to share 7 things about yourself (I'll get to that in a bit), award 5-15 other bloggers yourself and of course contact them and tell them of their award.

I didn't have to give to much thought to who I would in turn give this award too so here are the people receiving this award from me in no particular order...

OK so 7 random facts about me this will be hard to think of stuff I haven't already written on one of these 70+ blog posts so far but here goes nothing...

1. I have lived in the UK all my life (best part of 30 years) and I have only visited London once and it was for a football game this year strangely it was a Scotland game why it wasn't played in Scotland I have no idea.
2. Ironically as a guy who stands anywhere between 6'6" and 6'8" depending on how bad my back is hurting me I have a problem with heights I don't like them be it on a ladder or high building I don't like it at all haha.
3. I am a diehard Airdrie United Football fan but have been to so few games over the last five seasons I feel like a fraud for saying so.
4. As a writer I find writing about dark subject matter much easier than anything else so either I'm nuts or I just have a good imagination........ I think I may be nuts haha.
5. For my work experience placement at high school I spent a week working at my local newspaper learning everything from reporting to printing and loved every minute of it.
6. In the last 6 months I was assigned to write a web series but after seeing the poorly executed 8 minute pilot episode I had my writing credit changed from Andrew Carson to Randal Fleming Jr. to try and distance myself from it but saying that if a second series goes into pre pro Randal will be happy to return to writing duties for a rewarding fee.
7. I am planning to either make it or break from it this year when it comes to my writing. If I don't sell something before the end of the year I will find some other kind of profession and just write as a hobby. No pressure then on me to succeed huh? haha.

Thanking you
