Hello!
Regular followers and visitors to this site will know I'm using BLOGGERS WERE CHILDREN TOO! for my theme this year. I hope you're enjoying reading about bloggers, some you know and some you may not yet know, as they respond to some prompts I sent out. I've been so grateful for their responses as it helped me to get to know them better, admire their stunning cuteness as babes, and delighted me with random facts.
Thank you Adult Bloggers for your heartfelt responses. Thank you readers for visiting my posts. I hope you'll leave a comment and if you'd like to follow the link to my respondents' blogs they'd be delighted to meet you.
Today:
B is for BAMBREY, LAURA BAMBREY from DAILY DODO
 |
| Laura in back with her little sister in front. Dressed in traditional Welsh national dress. |
I WAS BORN IN: Poole, Dorset, UK.
I GREW UP IN: Mid-west Wales. We moved there when I was 3 years old to live on a dilapidated smallholding in the middle of nowhere. It was magical!
MY FAVOURITE HOME WAS IN: The one and only in Wales. We had so much space – I thought this was our god-given right as kids, but I’ve come to appreciate the freedom we had as I’ve got older.
MY BEST CHILDHOOD MEMORY IS: Sitting in our large hay-barn with the wind and rain howling outside. It was made from corrugated iron, so sounded fabulous – and made me feel so small.
MY WORST CHILDHOOD MEMORY IS: The dread of going to school when I was being bullied. I still remember the feeling. Desperate to run away but completely powerless to do so.
TODAY I LIVE IN: Ashburton, Devon, UK.
PROUDEST WRITER MOMENT: Winning my first ever actual THING with a poem – I won a voucher and bought a lamp with my prize money – which I broke within an hour of having it – thought my heart would break too.
RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME: If I had to choose between cheese or chocolate for the rest of my life – I’d choose cheese.
Catch Laura on her blog, Daily Dodo. You'll find some wonderful flash fiction and writerly advice.I hope you enjoyed learning a little more about Laura. Call by tomorrow to hear about Canadian Cathy Olliffe-Webster's childhood. She's a real hoot!
