When I'd figured it out, I realised it was actually two meme's rolled into one. No wonder it looked like war and peace! So I've decided to just go with low number!
The first one is called the 7 x 7 x 7 meme. I recommend 7 blogs, tag 7 people and then tell you 7 facts about myself

I put 7x7x7 into Google and got this...WTF?? |
7X7X7
7 Blogs to recommend
Well the first isn't a blog, more a photographylogger (???) Its NE Lights run by a thoroughly decent chap called David, who happened to be my boss for more years than either of us want to remember. He's a budding landscape photographer and really rather good!
My next would be Slightly South of Sanity, her humour has me in stitches, her honesty in tears. I can't believe some of things on there, but it totally captivates me
Another one to make me cry but for different reasons is Carrie's War, her blog talks about the final months with her husband and how she and her son are now living after. Very touching.
I know this blog will have been recommended a lot in the mum's community, but MammyWoo is another must read. With the tag line ' I used to be cool but now I wee when I laugh' gives you an idea of the humour, but doesn't prepare you for the heart wrenching honesty and beautifully written posts of dealing with post natal depression.
Puttylike is a blog to dive in and out of, something for everyone. It's got a real lovely feel about it. Give it a go!
I suppose my next submission isn't technically a blog, but an e-magazine, a collection of blogs. But I am a little in love with Jane, the editor of String of Pearls. She has been very supportive over the last couple of months and especially with my cancer diagnosis. If she wasn't so far away in Australia she is definitely someone I would try to meet! The e-magazine is a cracking good read too!
A little change of pace would be Slimming Eats. As someone who is dieting but still loves food, there are some cracking recipe's, hints and tips on there.
7 People to Tag
Well you see, I'm not so good and this bit. Am sure a lot of people I know have already been tagged. But will pass the baton onto
@ChurchyC4 of Marvelous Adventures of a Devon Girl (and my daugher)
@OvenuOvenValet Who is just wonderful and loves a kitchen gadget!
@ahrainnks volunteered from over at RainyDaze
So onto 7 facts about myself
I've lived in the same town since I was 2 years old and have no plans to move away yet.
I'm the eldest of three kids and have two of my own
I don't have a middle name
MrC and I met and decided to marry 6 days after meeting each other
I own a dog and four snakes (the dog is scared of the snakes. Am pretty sure the snakes are hard assed and not bothered!)
I married my brother (its not a Devon thing! I conducted the celebrant part of the ceremony!)
My favourite colour is purple
I think I managed to not give too much away there, but still tell you something you didn't already know, result!
