Erm, well, it was quite nice to find out a month or so ago that this lovely little blog of mine has been shortlisted in the ‘Chronic Illness and Disability’ category for the Northern Blog Awards. I think I accidentally nominated myself..!? Apparently, nominations occur through someone who has nominated you or if you’ve done …
Hello, I keep meaning to blog more regularly, best intentions and all that. I have, however, been working on some rather exciting projects and received quite good news. Blog Shortlisted at the Northern Blog Awards 2018 Last month I found out that a Hello Little Lady was shortlisted in the ‘Chronic Illness and Disability’ category …
