Anniversary

[callmemadam]

It’s five years today since my first post to Live Journal. I was given membership as a birthday present; my first proper post was about gardening. Now blogging is a really important part of my life. There’s a wonderful community here and I feel lucky to have made such good friends. Thank you all, and thanks too to all the non-LJ readers. I don’t know who most of you are, but thanks for looking.

Happy Blogiversary! Here's to the next five years!

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Blogiversary; I never thought of that.

[widgetfox.livejournal.com]

:-) seven years today for me!

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

What a coincidence! Congratulations.

[rosathome.livejournal.com]

It's been a pleasure to get to know you.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Likewise!

Five years? Here's to the next fifty-five! I love reading blogs with plenty of cricket and molesworth in them. Hope you had a wonderful birthday.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I obviously need to post more about cricket. Like, actually, I couldn't stand Trevor Bailey on TMS.

It is good, innit? I've never done that 'repost this if there's at least one important person in your life you wouldn't have met without the internet' thing, but perhaps I should.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Never 'eard of it.
You must have been going much longer than I have.

[huskyteer.livejournal.com]

I think I started using it properly in late 2002, though I had an account before that. Blimey.

I love your blog and look forward to the next five years!

Happy birthday for yesterday, by the way!

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! As you see, I'm still Queen for a Day.

I have recommended your journal to my dad (who loved the idea of a blog about cricket and books) and many others over the years. Reading your posts are always a high point in my day - and there are days that I might not have got through without the love and support of you and a handful of others. I am so grateful that you did start writing!

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Aaaw, sniff. I love reading your posts, too.

[gghost.livejournal.com]

I am so glad to have met you here at LJ.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

One of the best things about the internet is making friends from all over the world.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm delighted if other people like books I recommend.

Five years! It doesn't seem nearly that long. Well done for keeping it up, I did try to resurrect mine last year, but I couldn't think what to say that wasn't either moaning or already being said on the knitting blog.

And Happy Birthday for yesterday :)

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Thank you! LJ is useful for moaning, because only your friends need see it? Or you could use it for your photography. OTOH your craft blog is awesome! and must take some keeping up.

[ramblingfancy.livejournal.com]

Wow - well done you! And your posts are always so consistently thoughtful and interesting. Happy Belated Birthday too!

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

That was a very nice present for all of us!

Here's to many more years.

[callmemadam.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I wish you posted more as I'm always interested in what you have to say.

[lethe1]

Aww, thank you! :'-)

Happy anniversary! I do like reading your journal.

Thank you, I'm glad. I hope you know how much I enjoy reading about your adventures.

Happy anniversary! I always enjoy reading your blog.

Thank you and I'm so glad I've been able to meet you.
