Pleasant surprise

As I rule, I've found it somewhat difficult, even unseemly, to sing my own praises. This actually explains a lot about my middling success at business in a culture where the squeaky wheel always gets the grease - and maybe a guest slot on The Surreal Life. More often than not, my inner George Bailey wins out over the proverbial tooting of any horns.

But I must admit that I was more than a little pleased to discover this flattering review of "The Hue and Cry" at BloggyAward.com today. Not quite a gold medal, but at least an upper part of the podium. A sincere "Thank you" to the Administrator and staff there for their positive and encouraging comments.
