Ever since my brother and sister, Adam and Nicki, got one each for their brilliant poster entry, I’ve nursed a brooding need. Where was MY Blue Peter badge, eh? How had I failed to achieve this dream when they had succeeded?!!
30 odd years (and they have been odd) later, it’s all been set right. I got a badge this week. And – ahem – an award. Frozen In Time won the Blue Peter Children’s Book Award – Book I Couldn’t Put Down category.
Hard to describe my delight, but cold flannels and rubber bands have since been employed in a bid to get the grin off my face (it gets scary after a while). If you’d like to see the point at which the grin arrives, go here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00r4xcv/Blue_Peter_23_02_2010/ – to about the last six minutes of the show.
Hurray! This is fantastic news!
Wow! A Badge… so jealous!
Oh, yeah…. the award thingy ain’t so bad either… <>
Now I’m off to my corner of the sludge pit to write my (not ripped off you at all) “Frozen In Tim”
… ahem… curse you for being so awesome!
great story, glad u won, one of my fave stories by you
Absolutely brilliant. A star in our midst … but then we always knew that.
Aaaaaw.
