ACCEPTANCE SPEECH

First, I would like to thank Barbara and Chant d’oasien for nominating me. They both have been so kind to nominate Dear Kitty. Some blog for several other awards, besides this one. Thank you so much, my dear blogging friends!

These kind nominations came just before Dear Kitty. Some blog today reached the milestone of getting visits from Greenland and Togo for the first time. When I had to move my blog once again in December 2011, I never expected that (I had eight visits then, on my first WordPress day, all from countries with many more computers than Greenland or Togo …). Thanks, all of you!

Finally, a bit of humour.

Visitors from Greenland and Togo, welcome!


About three months ago, I wrote a blog post about from which countries visitors had come to my blog, and about which countries were unrepresented so far.

Among those countries with no visits then were Togo in Africa; and Greenland.

This video is called Wild Greenland – home of musk oxen and arctic char.

This morning, WordPress stats say that the first ever visitor from Greenland has arrived. Yeseque, welcome!

This video is called Discover Togo.

Also, there have been two visits from Togo. Not today; I am not sure when. Bienvenu, welcome!

Interesting blog award

Shaun of the blog Looking for reasoning to a complicated world has been so kind to nominate Dear Kitty. Some blog for the Interesting Blog Award.

Thank you so much for this kind gesture!

The rules of this award are:

  1. Thank the person who nominated you
  2.  List 5 random facts about yourself
  3. Nominate a minimum of 5 blogs for the award
  4.  Reply to 5 questions you are asked. Ask the nominees 5 new questions of your choice
  5. Notify all nominees on their blog

Five random facts about me:

1. When I was small, we used to play football on the street. There was not much traffic. Only one family had a car, and they used it only to go to church on Sundays.

2. One day, a policeman said we were not allowed to play football. He grabbed our ball, cut it with a knife, and threw the bits into a ditch.

3. When we went to the police station, they said that the policeman had been wrong to do this. We got a free new ball, for which we could choose between the balls at the police station (probably lost balls for which owners had never turned up to claim them).
