Brilliant concept!
A league table of bloggers decided on by, another blogger.
Genius! Pure genius!
(Pippa: Why do you and other bloggers post rubbish like this? Is it because in truth, you have nothing sensible or enlightening to tell us?)
In my case, it's because I'm in the process of taking a short break from blogging, and enjoy the mass array of political colour.
These awards are a distraction, and spoil the blog world ,it isnt a beauty parade
and the best blogs do not seem to get any where
Let's face facts here. Pippa is tired. This blog looks and feels very tired. Just scroll down this page....
A couple of weeks ago Pippa was posting some rubbish graphic of a dragon with a cork in its mouth, in the vain hope someone, somewhere would find it funny. It wasn't.
Perhaps its time she wound this pointless exercise up? Its way past its sell-by date I am afraid.
Does Fondue Set work for Welsh Labour perhaps???
Is Fondue Set Leighton Andrews?
Paranoia, paranoia everywhere :-)
Not Labour, not Plaid, not Lib Dem , not Tory - just an ordinary bod who is tired of the inaccuracy, half-truths and anonymity delivered by the so-called Welsh 'blogosphere' (God, that word is SO naff!)
I repeat. This blog is tired. The author is lazy and it had become a complete waste of bandwidth.
I note that no disaggreed with my previous assertion, you just took it as another opportunity to attack Leighton Andrews! Paranoia!
Scroll down the frontpage of this blog and look for yourself how boring and lazy the posts have become. All I suggested was that Pippa packs it in. I am trying to be helpful here!
(P.S. Before any one of you numbskulls says "But you are commenting anonymously, doh!". This is precisely the point I am making Congratulations in getting it!)
"(P.S. Before any one of you numbskulls says "But you are commenting anonymously, doh!". This is precisely the point I am making Congratulations in getting it!)"
What an arse!!! So obviously one of Leighton's lackeys as he mentions Leighton when Pippa doesn't.
Pippa. It looks like Sanddef's way of writing.
I agree. It is Sanddef.
But still this person continues to read and leave comments. Says a lot about their life, or lack of it.
However, in defence of free speech, this person has a perfect right to say whatever they like about Pippa.
(In fairness, even I find find this blog at bit boring at times!)
Which is probably why the blog admin leave your comments in place.
Sadly it’s the same troll/sock puppet/labour employee as over at Valleys Mam' blog, (they used to post on Dylan Jones Evans as well until he stopped) you really must getting up their noses Pippa, good to see our money being spent well its not as if we have any major challenges facing Wales is it, get back to work troll
Yeah! You tell 'em Valleys Mam!
so you're admitting its you whose being posting the diatribe on all three blogs, does your boss know i wonder if i should tell him on Monday !!!
Now read this VERY carefully...
What I choose to reveal is my call.
Any assumptions will be denied.
Nowhere are there clues.
Knowledge is power.
Even you can work it out.
Read all this again slowly.
Do you get it now?
back track and deny all you like you've be caught read handed mate.
Knowledge is indeed power !!!!
You obviously didn't read it slowly enough :-)
I can't believe he said "Knowledge is power"! Actually, thinking about it, I can :)
The truth of the matter is that there's an element of Welsh Labour that have got it in for Wagstaff and have charged a few with bombarding this blog with abuse.
Well hello, This is me Valleysmam , not the various people I am being accused of being - I am me and when I post its with this name
May be people need to realise that some of us blogers have jobs and family and a life and we do not spend hours trawling and posting.
Secondly , sometimes theres so little going on its not worth posting.
Pippa enjoy your break
I will also be going on holiday soon -so my blog will be quiet unless may be I get guest to take over for a while
Well said VM!!! These vermin like to pick on the blogs that criticise the government, including yourself. The truth is they have no answer for independent criticism and rest on their laurels - if there are any left.
