She did not have a clue about just why an egg should be filled with chilli flavoured scrambled egg that is until she had read my blog last night ( I didn't even know that she read it) and she took it all in good stead as good looking nurses have a tendency to do....
It never ceases to amaze me that some 350 souls look at this blog daily. Of course some of that number will be directed to the site by google who will pick up on my more racy of "key words" such as "crackhead whores"........bless them, I guess that the everyday adventures of a set of bald hens would let these clients down somewhat, and their fat little fingers would be a blur on the delete button.......but I must say, to all of the others who make the effort daily to read this drivel....a big thank you.
I now have 414 followers. Perhaps a quarter of which call in regularly and it does tickle me somewhat to think of the eclectic mix of people that are lurking out there in blogland....
So to all of the....
Chuckling Yorkshire teachers that think they live on a tropical island,
Canadian ladies with exquisite tastes,
hard working farmers from the American South and Midwest,
hard working farmers ( and their wives) from the UK!
Hard working small holders from Wales and France
Gentle ex pats with artistic pasts,
Aussie Bush dwellers and Yanks from all states
Owls, Pear Trees,Parrots,Foxes,River dwellers, Undertakers, Opera Singers and the odd housewife with a story,
Idiot Gardeners and the campy film reviewers
Zombie lovers and sweet natured dog owners,
Germans,Canadians, aussies and Kiwis
Londoners and Country dwellers!
Hippies and goats! oh and my "locals"
Lesbian mums and Californian Cafe owners with "issues"
People with heart (s)
People who rant,
Gentle gardeners , gentle photographers and gentle writers,
The Gentle
Arty boozers from four continents ,
Diary keepers, The social commentators..... the middle aged guy with a story!
The sad and the happy,The Gay and the straight,
The great and the good....

Thank You, again!!!
The pre Raphaelite nurse must have been rather taken aback to find herself tucking into a chili-flavoured egg. So you still have to identify the egg-thief then?
ReplyDeleteI only visit your blog because of the threatening messages that say "Visit mie blog or elss. Signed J Gray". Otherwise I wouldn't bother.

ReplyDeleteIt looks like your list of visitors pretty much includes all of us out here who are reading blogs at 4 in the morning, not only due to insomnia but also the sheer delight of listening to those such as yourself with an insight into life and a sense of humor.
ReplyDeleteCould it be because you are such a nice person, the blog is so funny, we all love you, the animals and in our own little way we want your life??
ReplyDeleteHugs from California
Nice to see I topped your list! This is heartening as I plot my escape from paradise. One day I hope I will be back in the earthy, commonsensical world that you inhabit.
ReplyDeleteHey! you forgot Glastonbury Hippies LOL
ReplyDeleteYou forgot your loyal readers who are goats! Tee hee. I know that there must be several of us on here. You always give my lady something to laugh about, get sentimental about or think about. She may not let me post a comment every day - after all I need to come up to the house from the barn and get my hooves wiped off - but we read every post you make. xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteI am only here for the crackhead whores and am never disappointed.
ReplyDeleteFancy the pretty nurse reading your blog!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many folks you've described unfavourably who might read it?
mouse... descriptions all outlined with affection.... have no fear
ReplyDeletekath and isobel
ReplyDeleteblog changed accordingly!
Yes John Gray, you are exactly what I believe everyone thinks you are "all cracked up to be" LMAO
ReplyDelete"Just Me" & my Checkerboard Aussies in Canada !
Haha. Glad she got a chuckle out of it. You certainly share enough chuckles with us, John.
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a great day!
Your blog is one that I try to read every morning before I leave for the office. My Great Grandmother was born in Swansea. I enjoy the daily glimpse into life in small town life. Keep up the great writing.

Wouldn't miss your blog for the world.
ReplyDeleteJane x (zombie chick lookalike)
That pic has given me toothache.
ReplyDeleteYou do it all for love. Excepting maybe the sausages, possibly the eggs. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't miss your blog for the world!
ReplyDeleteHow about all that lot (above) to make you feel wanted on a Thursday!!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course, don't forget "bosoms" for one of those potentially racy words...
ReplyDeleteI need to be more diligent in my blog entries--i try for two a week, and with all that's been going on lately, that's been a tall enough order.
happy I'm not an egg eater in your chicken coop...or a crackhead whore (my chance for that title has come and gone!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteyou know we all love you John and your family, human, feathered, furry!
And where do I fit in that list?
ReplyDeleteI guess that I'm an "odd housewife with a story to tell" then ?
ReplyDeleteSuits me fine !
Whoever we are we all love your Blog John x
I swear I wasn't trolling google for crackhead whores. I saw you pop up repeatedly on several other blogs I read, and eventually your irresistable charm had its way. It's inexplicable, like alien abductions.
ReplyDeleteThe icing on the cake is the wit of your readers...the comments are as much fun as the content.
I come by for the tongue-in-cheek humour aimed at life and, thankfully, I'm never disappointed ... ;0)
ReplyDeleteI start my early morning with a read of your blog, it always put me in a good mood .
ReplyDeleteYou are a wise and crazy man my bloggy frined ;)

Yes John I feel like that about my blog too. And do bear in mind that you probably have a lot of other people who read you blog and who don't blog themselves so never bother to answer. Yours is always the first blog I read because it almost always makes me laugh and starts my day off well.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, John, for including me so many times on your list.

Your blogspace never fails to teach and amuse me.
You are a joy to visit every day John. Keep writing!
ReplyDeleteNo no Thank you!

I read ur blog just about everyday. In fact I often read snippets to my GF, especially when I need to LOL.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you included Kiwis! I can't remember when or how I stumbled across your blog but it was quite a few years ago. Now I like to visit you and Mr Stephenson every morning while I sip my first mug of coffee for the day.
ReplyDeleteI raising my glass of Creme de Poire Williams...Cheers, John!
ReplyDeleteJohn, I remember when you had 35 followers--Have I been here that long--Am I any older...Wait, we're about the same age, so I'm not! :-)
ReplyDeleteyou have kim! you old duffer xx
ReplyDeleteQuite the mix you have for sure :O).
ReplyDeleteI love to drop by to see what adventure has befallen you ( or your tribe) !
ReplyDeletecheers from Downunder
It's a pleasure, John.
ReplyDeleteI was trying to find myself in your list, and decided I'd identify as: Straight (married to a man for 26 years), but I think you may need a category for Urban Chicken Owners, for we have 4 Jersey Giants in our urban backyard in San Diego, CA, USA.
ReplyDeleteWe are all very happy to come along for the ride!
ReplyDeleteHey John, the pleasure is all mine!
ReplyDeleteWe are quite a rag tag bunch aren't we? Did you ever see the French movie, The King of Hearts? Sometimes it feels like that village here on your blog...a little nuts, granted, but with the deeper sanity of good hearts.

I see you and the dogs are all tarted up for Pride! Ours in Toronto runs all this week.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the laughs and tears and everything in between.
