Today's quiz requires contestants to look at the profile pictures of ten members of the blogging community. I guess we all develop our own favourites and regular visiting habits so it could be argued that this quiz is a little unfair but as an awkward teenager might say - I'm not bothered! Who are these people? Either give the blogger's name or the name of their blog. As usual, answers will appear in the comments section.
⦿
1) This mature woman lives in Berkshire and was
last year's "Blogger of the Year"
2) This jolly fellow lives in North Wales with his dogs and cats.
3) This German lady has a better command of
English than most native speakers.
4) This Isle of Man resident looks like a Japanese anime character.
5) A mature Canadian blogger from Red Deer,
Alberta - though he hasn't always lived there.
6) Mostly famous for owning a parrot called Marco, this school
bursar lives in Florence, South Carolina with her husband
Gregg who also serves Marco.
7) A resident of The Isle of Lewis, Scotland and a true gentleman blogger.
8) What a great writer this woman is - creating intimate
blogposts in a small settlement called Lloyd in Florida.
9) This gourmet, artist and dog lover splits his year between
Brighton in Sussex, England and a hamlet in south-western France
10) Like me this chap is a Yorkshire pudding and he also
resides in Sheffield - though I have never met him.
That's all folks! How did you do?

ReplyDeleteShush Kelly! Not everyone is as cunning as you are!
DeleteI only recognize the 4 whose blogs I also read -- John Gray, Jennifer Barlow, Mary Moon, and Captain Kirt!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I have unwittingly broadened your blogging horizons Debra!
Delete6/10
ReplyDeleteI did not include you because of your new profile picture Andrew. I know you must feel terribly piqued.
DeleteI didn't know 4 and 10, although I have often seen JayCee's comments on your blog.
ReplyDelete8/10 isn't bad for a woman who is focused on her wedding plans.
Delete5 1/2, the half is for JC who I remembered but didn't know the name of her blog. And I didn't know numbers 5,6,7,10
ReplyDeleteYou only needed to get the blogger's name OR the name of the blog.
DeleteOh dear I didn't know number 10. I must hop over for a look.
ReplyDeleteAre you a a frog?
DeleteMeike and Graham are old friends of mine since way back; some I have been following (and vice versa) "for a while", while some are still more like "acquaintances" in that we've so far mostly met in the comment sections of mutual friends' blogs (here, and possibly also elsewhere). There's probably a limit for most of us how many blogs we can manage to keep up with regularly! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how long some of our blog friendships can endure.
DeleteAw, man. That was sweet of you.
ReplyDeleteI bet you never imagined that one day you would be a quiz question.
Delete10 out 0f 10 for once, well I recognised them but not the fellow at the end. Obviously he could not take a decent photo of himself.
ReplyDeleteInstead he made a cartoon - just as I did!
DeleteI got number 5. He's a cool dude.
ReplyDeleteHe's certainly cool when he visits the Arctic.
DeleteI got the 7 that I read everyday, though I have seen the others commenting!
ReplyDelete7/10 is amazing for a retired lady from Hertfordshire.
DeleteWhat, I don't merit a mention? I got two Laughing Horse awards, for God's sake! (My blog profile pic is VERY old, though, so I can imagine being disqualified on that point alone.)
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I know everyone except 7 and 10. I think I know who 7 is but I haven't head the pleasure of reading his blog.
It's not all about you Steve! There are other people on the world you know.
DeleteMe me me!
DeleteI got 7 out of 10. I wouldn't cheat by looking at the sidebar, Kelly!
ReplyDeleteIllinois gals are more honest than the wenches of Arkansas.
DeleteAt least I owned up to it! I'm an honest cheater!
DeleteI tried to check out 4 but got "It doesn't look like you have been invited to read this blog. If you think this is a mistake, you might want to contact the blog author and request an invitation."
ReplyDeleteJayCee has had "issues" with trolls before Marcellous - though I do not believe you are a troll!
DeleteA lovely post xxx
