i'm a rock and roll star...apparently
Well, apparently entrepreneurs are the new rock stars - and as I have received and award officially labelling me an entrepreneur (lets not spell that again...) I kinda beg to differ when I am elbow deep in icing sugar - but hey, every dog has its day (woof).
I have been named as one of the '42 under 42' in the midlands (you know, someone to watch out for, a rising star etc), and am in some very good company i have to say. there is a posh award ceremony being held at villa park next week and i will have an opportunity to schmooze and rub shoulders with fellow people of utter brilliance. there will be special awards given to those that shine beyond that of a fair glimmer - usually a high turnover and staff numbers will determine this so i will keep an eye on the bread rolls and flow of vino. attire is lounge suit so i shall be frocked up - am hoping leg bruises have lessened by then as this is really not the weather for tights (skin like a peach people).
there will most likely be an array of fromage press shots that i will of course share with you as i am always up for a laugh. i am hoping to have some tales to share with you as it is a while (since leaving the race of rats) since i attended such an affair. the most exciting bit so far was receipt of some cherry flavoured tic tacs by fellow winner who was very organised and sent me a letter in advance about looking forward to meeting with another fellow winner. i feel a tad under prepared as have not made contact with any fellow 42ers - perhaps i should just bring some cake along and make friends via the lucid connection of sugar?
anywho - i shall share anything of interest with you next week as i am all about the sharing! i did this whilst waiting for some cupcakes to bake - this is multi-tasking at its very best and given that it is 4.50am i really do deserve an award!

ReplyDeleteTar muchly B! It is a great accolade - to be honest hadn't looked into it much and then saw the other nominees and felt very small!!!! Will see if I can get some fromage shots of me. May wear my navy blue kate moss bubble dress and wedding shoes (leg bruises pending!!) xxxxxxx
