Thanks For the Noms
Thanks to the people who nominated me for this year’s Blog Awards. I’m humbled. A friend of mine calls this blog a bit of a Bunty adventure. And of course, he’s right. So, thanks for being my Three Marys.
I’ve been long-listed with lots of amazing writers in the Best Technology Blog, Best Personal Blog and Best Newcomer Blog categories. Good luck all.

Surely you should also get some special ‘Microblogging achievement award’ for your output on twitter and jaiku. You’re best newcomer and best microblogger in my book.

Congratulations.
I was nominated for best blog post, bizarrely.

@walter: Thanks. There are a lot more august bloggers in the bunch. Cheesy as it sounds, I’m honoured to be mentioned in their midst. * does a Paltrow *
@robert: Thanks. I actually really loved that blog post. A very strong post.

I’d no doubt you’d be nominated for best technology blog, and I was delighted to see you made it into two other categories too. You deserve it, your posts have constantly been both captivating and entertaining.

@Latchiko: Hehe, thanks.. * blushes* Your photoblog is sweet, too.. It’s been a long time since I’ve been down your neck of the woods. Have all the lads been good?

@Latchiko: Congrats on your nom nod. Shall you be going along to the awards show in March?
February 1st, 2008 at 2:43 pm
All the lads are behaving themselves. If they step out of line you’ll be the first to know! ;o)
I haven’t even thought about attending the show yet, when it’s closer to the time I’ll see what I can do. I take it you’ll be going along?

@Latchiko Great to hear. I’ll be murdered if I don’t..

Best of luck with the judging, and hopefully we’ll all meet up in Dubland for a few scoops, even if we go home with nothing else.
At least we know one thing right now: whatever about us, those Dublanders won’t be going home with the Heineken Cup.
Warm thought, isn’t it?

@Bock: Thanks. And to you too. Hope you nab some silverware
Looking forward to that.
Bloody Dublanders. Call themselves rugby fans.. too.. Bah. A pox on it.

BTW: Limerick pre-Dubland meet-up in contemplation if you’re interested.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:43 am
@Bock: In Limerick or for Limerick peeps? Is this a man-only thing you are dangling before me?!
Hehe
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:48 am
In Limerick. Certainly not a man-only thing. Half a dozen drunkards of various genders and none, one hopes.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:51 am
Drop me a mail, Bock. And if I can make it, I will… Love to make it.

Weren’t there 4 Marys?
(Congrats!)
February 4th, 2008 at 12:42 am
@Conn: Thanks. Yup, I’m the fourth and final one.

Of course - should have realised that!
