    And I hope you continue to ‘not give a toss’! So I continue to enjoy the blog.

    TEN YEARS?! Wow, massively impressive! Have a congratulatory beer, on me, that you’ll pay for.

    Thanks!

    Ten years, it does seem mad. It feels like it’s flown by, but then looking back at some of the older stuff, I hardly recognise it as something I did.

    Happy birthday, Blogshank. Brilliant achievement.

    (And I shall be seeing Zack in September so I can pick up your beer money from him).

    Now, all together, mob: Ten more years! Ten more years! Ten more years!

    Bravo sir. Your blog is one of the loveliest corners of the internet. Wish there was some way of buying you a beer via the wonders of the internet. If you’re ever in the flatlands and at a loose end please shout because in a world which insists on being far grimmer than it needs you work really is a tonic. Love and stuff DWx

    Thank you for the kind words! One day, I keep telling myself, I will self-publish this diary and you can buy a copy and get me a beer that way. If you want. Obviously I won’t push it.

    But you should – it’s a brilliant piece of work that deserves a much greater audience. And you can stick me down for a box full. I’d happily help fund it :) DWx

    Another of your quiet admirers… ;-) Always good to come over & see the world through your eyes.

    As ever – do what you want, when you want – and we’ll enjoy it if it’s there. Thanks, as ever…

    Thanks Simon, and Daniel, I appreciate it. Also appreciate your frequent mentions on Twitter.

    I think if I ever do publish, it’ll be a few copies printed for the likes of you good people. Crowd sourcing relies a bit too much on marketing expertise, of which I have none! And traditional publishers ignore my emails.

    By the way if I am ever in your neck of the woods DW, I’ll let you know. Always up for a chat about Ever Decreasing Circles amongst other things!
