Many congratulations, Alix. Your fruity prose certainly deserves this prestigious award!
Extremely well deserved like. One of my favourite posts of all time, Terribly Boring III, is shortlisted & rightly so as it sparked my interest in that matter. We are still waiting for a massive update from the people she refers to in that post, which I’m right looking forward to & that.
It is also good to see Heresy Corner on the list as it is a superb blog which I read regularly.
A few of the other blogs are distinctly questionable. They’d be better off replacing them with something like Ministry of Truth or Letters From A Tory.
Ta! Really must read more of Heresy Corner. On LFAT and Ministry, I agree, but I don’t think either submitted themselves.
