From Mondays to Fridays, I share other bloggers post links and blog links, so this is just a gentle nudge to prod you into sending me some post links to feature.
It’s a way traffic of supporting each other and building a supportive blogging community
I have a full spam box and decided to slowly weed through and sift with a fine tooth comb, because I have actually unknowingly weeded out a lot of good comments with the load of rubbish before, so I was being careful this time, though it was quite lengthy.
Amidst the offer for watermelon flavoured Viagra, several trolls, crazy offers and all manners of Chinese writing that I couldn’t make out what on earth it was saying, I saw YOU, YOU, YOU AND YOU
I wonder what is going on and why I have lots of decent humans mingled with trashy bots 😐😕?
Apologies if you sent comments and didn’t hear from me.
I am in the process of disentangling you from the weedy trash 😉
I was of the good mind to chew WordPress’s ears, but changed it quickly because I don’t want them to let some mad dogs out of the spam cage and into my arena.
P. S. Did I ever tell you about my green, Johnny just come, new-beginner days when I was responding to comments from bots? Ah!! I guess that’s a story for another day 🙂
Hop in let’s get this party started. You are most welcome.
Just make yourself comfortable.
Refreshments are nicely arranged down the page: Drinks, Chocolates, Cakes, Donuts, freshly squeezed juice, Coffee, Tea and so much more. 🙂
We even have an Intercontinental Chef in the house. LOOK UP and place your orders 😉
Just a little rules of play:
You must mix and mingle with others. Don’t be a wall flower. Go say hello to someone and you can participate in the Tag a poem up above.
Please leave your blog link or post link in the comment box below along with an introductions.
It’s one link per comment, but come back as often as you’d like, that way it’s easier to focus on a link at a time for others.
Please reblog, spread the word of the party like butter, or like, share on Twitter, Pinterest, Google+, Facebook, etc. Tell your family, friends, blogging neighbours, even your blogging pets.
Have fun, it’s a great way to find bloggers and have them find you.
Please show some love. Reblog this post. It helps all of us! The more people that see and participate in it, the more potential new follows! So, share and share voraciously!
There we have it. Since all the rules have been clearly explained, have fun and make the most of it 🙂
Thank you for coming to my party and supporting my blog. You rock.
Let’s add some SPRING to the tale 🙂 You can crack your Story telling imagination by contributing to this tag along Spring fiction below. The full story will be published on my Tuesday’s Trivia with every part attributed to the contributor. So here goes…
Buds of Spring
Georgette looks out of the window
The cold is fast thawing out and little fresh sprigs are sprouting.
It should be warm soon
Yet the coldness in her heart did not match the liveliness of the budding Spring
Her heart feels like a ghost town.
Where is he?
He promised her everything and she believed in him…
Counting the days and hoping that it’s just a dream.
‘Back in my home country, when we call for a party, we call for a party. We don’t skimp. Our hospitality is legendary. We even give out party tokens, so help yourself to an Easter Party Pack. You are welcome :-)’
That’s the one! I was coveting the camera with my eyes 😉
‘When will I get the mail? Or, have they forgotten me? Didn’t I register on time? I would really like to participate in this course.’
These were the thoughts that went through my mind days before the photo 101 course was set to start. I fretted a little bit and wondered if I would get the notification at all from WordPress.
Waking up on Monday morning to find a welcome note from dear WP, prompted a happy smile and a deep sense of gratitude to the faculty behind these opportunities.
I really must say that they do try to keep us engaged, expand our scopes and stoke our inspiration.
Why am I particularly keen on this class? I am what I would call an accidental photographer. This is my first photo class ever. I neither have any shooting skills, nor know any techniques. I am just a point and click amateur.
I desired for a Canon EOS 70D or Nikon D7200 to play with during the class, but for the life of me, I can’t afford to purchase a camera of over a thousand dollars right now.
The beautiful thing is that WP knows how to simplify these classes, so that each person is carried along at whatever level they are. No complications. So Canon/Nikon can wait.
It’s very easy to overlook such gestures and take the value added advantages for granted.
It’s always easy for man to complain about everything that is wrong and forget the things to be thankful for.
There are a whole lot of platforms out there that are comparable to arid deserts with no oasis in sight and their bloggers are abandoned to wade and flounder in ignorance to the detriment of their blogs.
Well, to cut a long tale short, I appreciate this platform provided by WordPress and would like to say thank you for these interactive opportunities which we are granted free of charge. I bet if I have to go pay for photo classes, I would part with some change.
In my place, it is said that a man who forgets to express thanks, has fallen asleep to the goodness that surrounds him.
Life of badges I would like to introduce Peter to you. A new found friend on mine in this space. I have enjoyed a number of his thoughtful posts and limericks. Please show some love.
Confession time Anna’s confessions. I couldn’t believe it myself 😉
Cut to the chase A fabulous reading series from Kay Morris that I have been following for a while. I actually watch out for the post so that I can keep up with Lainey’s story.
