Mike at Mike's Homefront has bestowed this award on me.
Originally the award was meant for guys but as you can see Mike has doctored it to enable him to pass it on to girlies.
Here's the original one for you guys.
I have to pay it forward so I am going to use both so I can include boys and girls.
First the boys:
My lovely boy Dan at Dan's Fi-ver has to have an award because he is definitely an Awesome Dude, if only for getting up at 5 a.m. to collect us from the airport! He has only just started blogging recently, so I hope you'll check him out.
Buffalodickdy at Opinions & Rectums who makes me salivate - with his recipes!
Dumdad at The Other Side of Paris has me in stitches with his tales of his cycling round Paris. Ask him about earwigs!
Then there's the girls
Linda (Are we there yet) and Catch (A penny for your thoughts) both Awesome bloggers who keep me entertained daily.
I have only recently found Confessions of a Rotten Correspondent , and I would like to keep her to myself really, but she's too good not to share, so go take a look.
Pick 'em up guys and gals and pay 'em forward.
What can I say - you ARE an awesome babe blogger ! ;-) Congrats Akela!!
ReplyDeleteBlimey Bella you were here before I finished posting! Thanks you, I have to confess I'm getting a bit embarrassed with them now but it would be churlish to refuse now wouldn't it? ((wink)).

My lovely Dan You're very welcome and I agree with everything you say about your blog apart from the modesty bit!
ReplyDeleteYou were up at 3.30 a.m.???? ((kiss, kiss, kiss))
Oh I did it wrong??? lol..I just wanted to honor my male bloggers with it.....lol. It seems like we women get the most awards so I thought it would be nice for them to have the award and besides that I am taking them out after the ceremony for dinner and drinks! I insist you join us!!!
ReplyDeletedon't forget I'm 6 hours ahead of ya! ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou embarassed?? I don't think that word exists in your dictionary! (it doesn't in mind!!;-)
Always accept gifts and/or compliments with a big smile and a thanks!
p.s How's Queenie? Is she ok?
Congratulations dudette!
ReplyDeleteCatch you feel free to honour who you like, just saying you can honour both with this award honey. :) I'll be there at the party!
ReplyDeleteOf course you are Bella I forgot. DOH!
ReplyDeleteQueenie is OK, just not blogging at the moment. I'll tell her you were asking about her honey. x
e~li~si thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! As I really don't understand how these awards work, please explain what I do next!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome buffalodickdy.
ReplyDeleteWhat happens next is, you copy the two awards and do a post to say you've received the award and who from. You then pay them forward to whoever you like Gals and Guys. Lastly you put the Awesome Dude Blogger award on your sidebar with a link to your post if you can, (I found this tricky and had to have help). Good luck! x
