By: Blonde Two
You know how Cinderella didn’t think that she was going to the ball but then, by the miracle of mice, fairy godmothers and pumpkins, she went and had a jolly nice evening?
Well we Blondes are in a hopeful state that we are going to be like Cinders (Blonders) and get a last minute invitation to the TGO Awards. It appears unlikely as everyone else has already has theirs.
We promise not to sulk about it but we might sulk if you don’t vote for us in their Outdoor Blogger of the Year award. You probably have already because you are lovely. But if not, here is the link (last chance before votes close): http://survey.nqsm.com/index.php/465869/lang-en
Have a lovely weekend and get out for a walk!
Oh, that’s mean. I think you should just rock up there anyway, walking boots, rucksacks and all. A walk on protest mid ceremony would be epic! Or maybe just wild camp outside and demand entry!!!! I have voted and will have my fingers crossed! X
I already voted for you but that isn’t whyI’m lovely – I’m lovely because I know what fut is in French, have swum in the Leeds-Liverpool canal, can say what position Roberto Clemente played, climbed and descended four LD passes (Hardknotts, Wrynose, Stake, the one down to Buttermere) in one day, owned three Lexuses, read Der Mann Ohne Eigenschaften albeit in English, am over 6ft tall, landed at Puerto Ordaz, have eaten caramelized grasshoppers, drunk a Jahrhundertswein in a Rhine vineyard, have written two dozen Shakespearean sonnets which scan even if they are poetically rubbish, examined the south face of Mt Cook from the air, have spoken Japanese to a group of Japanese. Just your average lovely guy, in fact, but with a bit of marzipan decoration.
Accomplished I would say but that conjures up images of long white dresses, needle work and piano playing.
Swum in the Leeds and Liverpool Canal? You’re also a survivor! Gruesome!
Perhaps Chris Townsend or Cameron McNeish or somebody else from TGO may turn up chez vous and ask you to try on a walking boot.
They would be most welcome but they would need to be very good navigators to find us in Dartmoor’s bogs!
