Even though I am a little surprised at some of the results, I just wanted to say Well Done to everyone and I hope you all had a great time at the Awards!

Congratulations to all the winners and my thanks to everyone who voted for Veg Plotting in the Best Blog category. It’s particularly good to see Jono at Real Men Sow holding his own against some very well established blogs with a much larger following. I’m also proud to be a contributor to the eventual winner!
So glad Alys’ Guardian column won – I’ve just started reading the Saturday Guardian again after a break of about 20 years and this is the highlight – an uncanny amount of times it’s just what I’ve been thinking about at the back of my mind.
