The Real Neat Blog Award

Thank you so much Asil Andrei Acasio their blog is great you should go visit it.

So now I present to you the copy-pasted rules:

1) Put the award logo on your blog.

2) Answer 7 questions asked by the person who nominated you.

3) Thank the people who nominated you, linking to their blogs.

4) Nominate any number of bloggers you like, linking to their blogs.

5) Let them know you nominated them (by commenting on their blog etc.)

My Answers:

1. What would you pick, the ability to see the future or past?

The future.

2. What was your most embarrassing moment?

Being walked in on (so to speak) peeing behind a bush. In my defence it was on camp and there were no toilets.

3. Which would you prefer, food or WiFi?

Food because I can go indefinitely without WiFi and there is always plug in internet.

4. What did you answer on 3?

Food.

5. What movie/book character would you relate to?

Alanna from Alanna: the first adventure but only in some ways.

6. Do you believe in global warming?

Yes I believe in global warming and climate change. I also believe that human’s are responsible for it or at least increasing the rate of climate change and although it does happen naturally from time to time the current climate change has been primarily brought about by human activity from my understanding of it.

7. How many lies have you committed whether small or big?

I have told too many lies to count but most of them are small. I hope I have not told too many harmful lies though. I don’t know many people who keep a tally of the lies they tell but it would probably make us think a bit more before we lied it we did count them,

Winter Weather

Of all the year round the best time of all,

Is winter when you want to predict the rainfall.

This usually works, when you live in Croydon,

You’ll be glad of my advice when you don’t get rained on.

When you open your door on a bright sunny morning,

Don’t be fooled, just listen to me and take my warning,

The rain will be falling in the next twelve hours,

The frogs will be happy and so will the flowers.

When you open the door and its misty and cold,

Don’t be put off, that weather won’t hold,

The sun will come out and banish the fog,

But predicting rainy mornings is like predicting a dog.

Adding a link the right way

This post was super helpful and easy to understand. I now, know how to create links, so I can fix some of my other posts so the links all work properly. Thank you 🙂

learning web development

Today I want to mention something which might be of help if you never thought of it or you just did not care much. We often need to link our previous posts or sometimes an external link to acknowledge source or any other case. For a beginner you need to know first how to add a link into your post then do it the right way

Task: Adding a link

  • Highlight/select the text you want to put a link
  • In your toolbar click on a chain like icon to insert a link
  • link2
  • Paste or write the url for the page you want to link
  • If it is your previous post click Or link to existing content and choose from the list
  • Tick the box Open link in a new window/tab 
  • The previous point is important to make sure all links are opened in a new tab or window which helps to…

Fire

Bush fire on our street,

Pitter, patter of some feet.

Fire engine goes past,

Shut the window fast.

To stop the alarm,

From causing more harm.

When people sleep,

Without counting sheep.

The fire wont spread far,

No need to prepare the car.

They are just burning off,

Or some similar stuff.

Why would they not explain,

It really is a pain.

To wonder what’s going on,

Anxious something is wrong.

It’s probably okay,

But I can’t really say.
