And now it is my Turn

My task over the next few weeks is to introduce you, albeit briefly, to some of the nominees of the bloscars.
I will quite simply give you a brief look into the blog/blogger, each week I will choose two or three blogs/bloggers to peruse and I will then write a little piece about what I see, you are then free to peruse the blog etc and make up your own mind.

I will not be promoting any blog or blogger, I will simply be giving you a chance to look at places/people you might not have looked at before. The rest is up to you.

I am going to start with a blog that I have not read before, and having spent the past hour or so perusing its pages I have to ask myself why?

Adamantixx

A blend of humour that has you laughing with not at the author, his description of how he sees himself in his um, senior years, is witty with maybe a touch of self-depreciation.
He laughs at his own shortcomings, but have not seen him laugh at others, his willingness to become a slave to long legged blonde girls (but don’t tell the wife) in his quest to win a knighthood and the description of the party he would throw once knighthood was achieved had me chuckling (Its ok my dog already thinks I’m nuts)

Of course I have to admit he won my heart with his love of all vampiric things and Morticia Adams, and the giant trifle at the top of his blog looks delicious.

He has a serious side too, admitting to his own failings rather than the failings of others, bringing lightness to his problems with the world and life in general.

I personally enjoyed the reading, it was like taking a little holiday in the middle of the week, I will go back and read more. Though I do have to say one thing, by the looks of his comments I must be one of the very few in Blogland that hasn’t read this guy.

Bloscar News...

It would appear a couple of awards have caused some people some confusion as well as a few problems with regards to actually giving an award and you lot seeing why they won. So, I have removed the award for Most Moving Blog Entry. Thank you to those of you who have made nominations so far. Those of you that managed to nominate an entry for this award chose very moving entries. I won’t mention them here as some of them were for Friends Only and of those ones I was capable of reading it was obvious why you chose them.

In other award changing news… the award for best Drunken Blog Entry… after an email conversation with a blogger I’ve come to agree that this award is a little troublesome as these blog entries often get deleted. So… it has changed to “Best Drunken Blogger!” So rather than nominating a blog entry… you can nominate a blogger!

Coming soon… the new award… all will be revealed soon. You will only have to nominate one person rather than three and it will be your one and only nomination, in other words it will not be included in the voting. It’s pretty much the same format as the Lifetime Achievement Award but all will become clear when it’s announced.

Below are all the bloggers who have been nominated so far. Now keep in mind that being nominated doesn’t mean you’re going to be up for an award. For that to happen you have to be in the top five people nominated. What it does mean though is someone thought enough of you to nominate you. This list is accurate as of 4pm so if anyone has nominated since then it isn’t included below. If your name is there and you wish to be removed from the awards either drop me a PM or leave a comment.

A huge THANK YOU to the people who have nominated so far! It amazing to think it’s only the 3rd, nominations have been open for three days and I’ve had so many already! You’ve still got until the 31st Jan to get your nominations in. Nominees will be announced on (or around) the 8th Feb when voting for your winners will take place.

So, thanks again, note the changes, happy voting!
