John Gray is not the only blogger whose achievements have been recognised in the wider world beyond the blogosphere.
Take for example Graham Edwards, the brains behind "Eagleton Notes". When a used trailer company from just outside York were looking for a stolid, trustworthy name for their company, they remembered Graham's blog and plumped for this company logo:-
Back in northern England, in the murky back streets of Stockport, a dodgy motor engineer who follows "Shooting Parrots" online, decided to give his unscrupulous business a hint of quality. Hence:-
Meanwhile, blogging folk may wish to note that The Laughing Horse Blogger of the Year for 2017 has been appointed to the Senior Research Staff team at Oak Ridge National Lab where important work is currently being undertaken into the effects of global warming. One wonders if Keith (aka Red) will still find time to maintain his Albertan blog, "Hiawatha House":-
Wow! I had no idea.
ReplyDeleteIf I knew your real name I would have searched for you too Mr C.
DeleteHey , Red is more widely known than I thought! You got a couple of things right. I am senior and I do care about global warming. the rest of it ? I wish! Fun post!
ReplyDeleteYour humility is endearing Red!
DeleteWe stroll amongst gods!
ReplyDeleteThere were plenty of George Lees out there but Lee Georges are as rare as rare butterflies.
DeleteYou are obviously having too much fun with this. Time to get back to Oxfam!
ReplyDeleteI was there yesterday afternoon. HQ have withdrawn a volunteer recruitment campaign that has the tagline - "Give a Shift!"
Delete"Jennifer Barlow Contemporary Crafts" must be the epitome of good taste and craftsmanship. I mean, with a name like that...!
ReplyDeleteThe name positively reeks of sophistication.
DeleteThe John Gray school and today's post made me laugh. You seem to have a lot of fun when you write your posts and I enjoy reading them!
ReplyDeleteGreetings Maria x
I am a little bit crazy Maria. Thanks for your continuing visits. Did your husband serenade you on Valentine's Day?
DeleteA brilliant piece of investigative journalism, this post of yours. Without your information, we would never know how famous our fellow bloggers are outside the blogosphere.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so shy and unassuming. It takes a bit of digging to get to the truth.
DeleteAaaaaah but the question is, are you the only YP?
ReplyDeleteI know this will come as a big surprise to you Christina but Yorkshire Pudding is not my real name! Regarding my real name there is nobody in the entire world who shares it.
DeleteSame for me, as far as I know.
DeleteTalking of having a unique name mine certainly is not. In the medical practice at which I was registered in New Zealand there were three people named Graham Edwards in addition to myself. In addition one of the staff in The Family's dental practice was married to a Graham Edwards.
ReplyDeleteThere must be a factory somewhere where Graham Edwards clones are manufactured.
DeleteHeaven forbid!
