Three for Three

This blog’s not even half a week old and it’s already become involved in a web meme… Thanks (I think) to the wonderful Gill from Minxology for nominating me to join in the latest Three for Three Web meme which was originally started here by Jed Hallam the Rock Star PR.

The original idea is that Three for Three consists of three top three selections which are then passed on to three people for them to each pass it on to three more people… you get the idea.

Why? Good question.

Anyway, here are my Three for Three:

Top three non-work websites:

1. Ted.com – Awesome. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds. Since then its scope has become ever broader. I defy you to visit it without coming away feeling a wee bit more inspired (and a lot more insignificant compared to the colossal brains that feature on the site).
2. i am neurotic – the scary thing about this site is how much of this nuttiness is actually familiar to me!
3. Watch Family Guy Online – not even sure if this is legal, but man – it helps put a smile on my face after a shitty day at work!

Top three karaoke songs:

1. Bob Marley – Redemption Song
2. Eric Clapton – Wonderfoooooool Tonight
3. Oasis – Wonderwall

[all three of which I have shamelessly mangled at various Karaoke bars around the planet]

Top three weekend cocktails:

1. It’s got to be a Moscow Mule made with the world’s number one Vodka brand (Hmmm… what could I be talking about?) – other brand are [apparently] available.
2. Chilli and Passion Fruit Martini – too good. tooooo good.
3. Cup of tea. OK – so, not exactly a cocktail* but my Sunday afternoon wouldn’t be the same without my pot o’ tea and a stack of Rich Tea biccies!

*although techically, a cocktail is any drink which mixes three or more ingredients (so, tea, water, milk and sugar should satisfy that rule whilst making me Britain’s biggest consumer of cocktails)

and now…

I tag the following Three lucky peeps:

Michael from LitmanLive (keen to know what your Karaoke classics are!)

Jaz Cummins from the fantastic Jazamatazz

The clog-o’licious Epicurienne

I am the aforementioned Rock Star PR and I would like to separate myself from the ‘pretentious tag’… My URL is a touch ironic – I shall (sadly) never ascend to rock star status.

Also, my three for three idea was born out of a desire to find more cocktails and broaden my karaoke scope…

Consider yourself blog rolled kind sir.

Whit woo, nice blog Rax. Thanks for your kind words

I have already been meme’d on this one I’m afraid.

Looking to carrying on reading you here, and good call on the tea!
