Two very good reasons to get up on a Monday morning.
Update: I don’t often publish my blog stats but I am feeling quite pleased with myself for the longish-term upward traffic trend. I have a great set of commenters and a broad spectrum of readers. I love you guys. As you will all know by now I am a deeply insecure individual so the traffic figures, comments and email contributions are ideal third-party affirmations of my charm, wit and good looks.
In January 2010 I had 5,651 units of traffic which is, as far as I can tell, the best monthly tally so far. I don’t know what the unit of traffic that WordPress gives me actually is (i.e. is it a unique number of readers or a total number of page loads or what?) so I am not interested in comparisons with popular blogs, but definitely am interested in the trends and the rate of growth.
Thank you for coming, thank you for taking the time to comment and particular awe points to the very small number of you who I have got to know sufficiently well that I can call you “proper friends” as well as “people who I like interacting with on the internet”.



It is not the waking up outside Sint-Salvatorskathedraal that is the problem so much as failing to recall the outgoing pilgrimage.
Well, that’s alright Blues, I rather like popping over to your patch.
Is that Bruges?
I don’t know how to get stats, other that I can see who has tagged themselves on to follow me. It is nice to communicate and get others opinions on ones thoughts and musings, even though they neither confirm or deny one’s sanity! I shall continue to pop by on a (usually) daily basis for as long as you contine to post something.
Yep well done – a good blog and a good place to visit to brighten my day. Yours too Hoggy.

Haven’t you gone yet?
Working up to the disappearing Statue of Liberty illusion, Blue?
