As with so many bloggers, this site was conceived to keep my children informed about what was going on in 'Mummy and Daddy's' lives. Of course, they've never really been interested in all our frippery; they have much more important things to concern them than reading about Cro's veg' growing, our chicken's laying habits, or the price of belly pork.
So, may I take this opportunity to thank everyone who's visited, everyone who's clicked the 'Join this site' button, and everyone who's ever left a comment. Believe me, you have all been greatly appreciated.
In case any of you don't know what Cro looks like; or, indeed, in case my children have forgotten.... that's me above (I hope it doesn't put you off).
Happy Millennium to me. Pop, fizzzzzz, glurg, glurg, glurg. Here's to the next 1,000.
Congratulations - that is a lot of writing.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember your eyes being that amazing blue.
ReplyDeleteor my beard being that grey!
DeleteGlurg glurg I'll join you in toasting the next 1000. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! You're part of my daily routine - get up, put the kettle on, eat breakfast, read Magnon's Meanderings. If Cro's written his blog then I know all is well with the world.
ReplyDeleteAnd if I see a comment from you, then I know that life still exists beyond Lumberjack. Sometimes I wonder!!
DeleteKids schmids! Congratulations on reaching your minellium. Menillium. Mullenium. Thousandth.
ReplyDeleteOh Well Done! That is an amazing achievement. Even when time is short I always try to read your daily post, as I sip my morning cup of tea, before the work of the day begins.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Cro. You actually look a bit like Keith, in a grey hair and beard sort of way. Distinguished! :)
ReplyDeleteRe the colour of your self-portrait, I put it down to all those fridge-pickles you have been ingesting for the last 30 years.

ReplyDeletebig BIG congrats to you...keep it up!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a newbie. Can't even remember how I got here. If I could, I'd send them a big "thank you!" Like the others, there are certain blogs that start my day, or rather get it off on the right foot, and yours is one of them.
ReplyDeleteI love you because you adopted Bok.
Many more to come, Mr. M.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations.
Your blog was one of the first I ever followed. It has been pleasant reading experience and I have enjoyed getting to know about you, your beloved dogs, and your veggie garden. Hope you have another 1000 posts in you.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone. Now I must be off to write posting No 1001.
ReplyDeleteWow! Cro that's impressive! We went up to Chirk to the car boot this morning. I thought about you as we passed Moreton Hall. Wonder if any of your former pupils read your blog. It's a small world.
ReplyDeleteDear old Moreton Hall. I'm pleased to hear it's still there!
DeleteCongrats, Cro. I also look forward to reading more of your posts.
ReplyDeleteI am happy to have found your blog, as you have an interesting life, hence all the followers you have gained. Keep it up. My kids may have forgotten what I look like too!!
