An award and a gift!
I got this ‘A Fun Blog’ award last week, from Jay thedeppeffect. Thank you very much Jay.
On another note. I have something else to thank Jay for. She kindly gave me permission to use one of her photographs in my sidebar. I saw the photo in her post and had the cheek to ask her if I could have it. Well, it was calling to me :O)
Jay very kindly said yes, and there she is, my little ladybug, or ladybird as we in the UK call them. Isn’t she so cute? Thank you Jay.

You actually made this blog more fun by posting Jay’s picture.
I can drag the new Lady Bug in Safari/Firefox (or any other Cairo graphics enabled browser) and have her meet the Lady Bug on the top ! [illustration]

Oh Jaffer, you are so funny! You really made me laugh at that. Mind you I did do it myself ha ha!

I love the award (so cute) and the ladybird (cute too!) Jay’s right — you DO have a fun blog. Always makes me smile (and you know lately I need all the smiles I can get).
Congrats, chicky!

Kathy: I’m glad I make you smile. I’m sure there’s a song in that somewhere – ‘Smile though your heart is aching, smile even….’

You’re very welcome for both, Babsie! I really like seeing my little ladybird on my travels to your blog! And Jaffer is right – you can drag her up to see her friend! I love the illustration! LOL!
As I said, you needed to have her.

Jay: Oh I did need to have her! I’ve found something but I dare not post it. I’ll email it to you.
