500th Blog post and a giveaway

Wow, 500 blog posts, thats a lot of rubbish sprouted from my typing fingertips over the past two and a quarter years since I started in January 2010. Bloggers statistics tell me that I have 126 followers, and that on average 30 people view (and possibly even read) my blog posts every day. Now I have no idea if this is the same 30ish regular viewers, or 30ish odd random people, so in an effort to find out I am having a giveaway.

If you regularly read my blog (I dont mean every day, but now and again) even if you aren't a blogger yourself, please leave me a comment at the end of this post, saying how often you view (read) my blog, and after a week, i.e. next Sunday, I shall put all the names in a hat and pull out a winner for a surprise giveaway - meaning I haven't decided the prize(s) yet, so it'll be a surprise for me, too.

Whether you read my blog daily, or weekly, or monthly, or only very randomly, I do appreciate it, thank you - and good luck!

Hi Joy, I read your blog every time I'm notified that you have published a new post.

Hi Joy, I'm subscribed through google reader so read when it pops up. Congratulations on your 500th post x

Well, you know I follow both your blogs every day Joy and hopefully comment each time also - unless away on holls - just recently. I try, if I read a persons blog to leave a little message so that they know they are not blogging in vain. 500 posts - wow what a feat.

Hi Joy, I probably read blogs about once a fortnight now, I have had to ween myself off the computer a bit, and get some actual work done xx :-)

Hi Joy, I read your blogs quite regularly!! When I manage to fight my turn on the computer, I also leave comments!! Well done on 500 posts, keep it up! :)

Congratulations on 500 posts, Joy!! That is quite amazing. Especially to me as I am a new blogger and have only posted about 21 posts. :) Very cool!!

I love reading your blog and catching up with your life. I am subscribed through GoogleReader, but try to actually visit your blog and read it about once a week.

Hope you have a FANTASTIC day!! :D

I'm a very fickle random reader - but then I'm pretty random at writing them too! I do, however, read yours more frequently than most of the ridiculously large number I follow according to blogger!
