credit where credit’s, erm, due?

It’s always nice to get a little recognition in the blogging community, you know, some kind of evidence that someone other than those typing in peculiar search terms might be reading the nonsense that you spout … or maybe that should just be the nonsense that I spout!

It’s been some time since I’ve been tagged, probably since this blog veered wildly away from all things parenty (with a hint of politics) to all things politicy (with a hint of parenting).  It’s incredible how quickly you can alienate a large portion of your readership with a radical shift in tack.  Still, thanks to Richard over at Scots and Independent for giving me a little hope that the shift in subject matter wasn’t complete blogging suicide!

According to the ‘rules’ of such things I’m now supposed to ‘tag’ my top ten blogs, give a wee spiel about them and provide the link … I’m going to fore-go the spiel and give you the top 5 (in alphabetical order) from each category in my blogroll:

Top 5 Life:

 

Special mention for my other and better half tales from the naughty step

Top 5 Political:

 

Special mention for Little Man in a Toque who provides a Southern perspective but doesn’t appear in my blogroll because it’s a perspective that sometimes drives my blood pressure sky-ward!

Oooh. Thank you. I’ve been lurking about reading the political stuff….Miss Wendy is quite the source of amusement for me!

Thanks for the special mention. Sorry my postings are driving up your blood pressure.

Hi Leendaluu, I’m taking a wee break from beating Wendy about the head for being a muppet … although I do envisage a ‘mocking Wendy Alexander’ series at some point in the style of The Grit’s ‘mocking islamic rage boy’ series :D

Toque, you’re welcome. Despite the blood pressure thing I find your blog enlightening given the perspective, I can’t say I always agree with you - but what would be the point if I did?!

Hi A,

Thanks for the mention! I’m looking forward to your pictorial mocking series. If you don’t already have photo editing software, I know where you can get it for free.

Hi Grit,

Oh God! don’t say that:

I’m looking forward to your pictorial mocking series.

That’s like pressue! I can’t take it!

I’ve got adobe photoshop which I think’ll do the job for me … I used it for wendy clown already ;)

Hi A,
No pressure. Well, a tiny bit of pressure. Actually, get off your ass and DO IT! Just joking.

the Grit

:D
