All hail the Manchester Blog Awards

I went along to the Manchester Blog Awards last year, to support Cynical Ben, who is now Who The Fudge Is Benjamin Judge? and a load of other sites of which I've lost track, because life's too short, although they're all very good. I was a little bit snarky at the expense of some of the crowd.

He didn't win, which was a shame, but some good blogs did. And some not very good ones. He's nominated again this year and I've a feeling it's his year. He's added lots of his literary work to the site, as well as the old favourites like winding me up. Surely that's a winning combination?

Perhaps it's time to start the Dark Place Bloggies?

Mentioning the awards to get on the site eh? I like it.

They haven't even announced the shortlist yet, so don't count your chickens where I'm concerned.

All last years winners (My Shitty Twenties, Words & Fixtures, Lost in Manchester, and RunPaintRunRun) are excellent by the way. So there.

It was your idea.
Actually, you're right. The winners were worthy, but some of the competitors weren't!
