Yippee, Yahoo, and Cockadoodledoo


Just in case the clue was in fact not in the title, this is just a short post to say how incredibly excited and indeed honoured I am to have been nominated for not just one, but two MAD blogger awards - Best New Blog and Best Writer. Seriously, I really am genuinely thrilled so thank you very very much to whoever nominated me (the cheque's in the post.)

I am not even going to attempt to feign nonchalance at having received such a lovely compliment. I suppose if I tried very hard I might be able to trot out some worthy post about blogging not being a competition and about how these sorts of awards tend to get mired down in nepotism and sour grapes, but (whilst these things may be true) I'm not gunna because I'm far too busy dancing a little celebratory jig around my office.

Soooo... if anyone feels like chucking another vote or two my way that would be... ahem... you know... wonderful. The prizes are ever so good you know and I could do with a laptop. Imagine - being able to blog from the comfort of my own bed. Oh the joy.

Anyway before I get too carried away I'm going. I'll take my big fat head with me, but before I do, I'd just really like to say - seriously - thanks again.
