Well well, well….
I was riffling through my emails late last Thursday, and nearly deleted one from Artists Talking News. However, my eye was caught by the appearance of my own name as I scrolled down the page: a nice person called EH Cocker has nominated this blog as the “Choice Blog” for March. (I keep having to check the email which I didn’t delete, in case there’s a mistake, and it isn’t me after all.)
I’m very flattered (“made up”, as they say around here on the Welsh side of Liverpool Bay) and not a little amazed to realise that there really is someone other than me reading this blog. EHC has written such kind things too – do I recognise myself from the essay?? I’m not sure (blush, blush) but I’m glad I don’t give the impression that I’m an opinionated curmudgeon. So thank you very much, EH Cocker, and if there are any new readers as a result of your generous review, the new term starts on Tuesday 3rd. May…
